Do we love Order of Ecclesia here?
no and kys for asking
Yeah, best igavania by far.
>>726018407I don't know, is it the one with the giant skeleton to the right
The gameplay balance leaves a lot to be desired. Nitesco shits on everything.
>>726019089nitesco does around the same amount of damage as ignis which you get much earlier
>>726018407Best handheld castlevania
>>726018468I don't want to kiss my sister.
>>726018407I'm a fag and I love shanoa
>>726018407Easily one of the worst Igavanias, it would be the single worst one if Harmony of Dissonance didn't exist
>>726018407I loved it.
Castlevania turns 40 next year and all we'll get are probably a new collection or the chink gacha game.
>>726021017why so I remember some studio being outsourced to make a 3d castlavania
As a Castlevania fan, I've only had Bloodstained, Minoria, the Enders duology and the Nights of Azure games to keep me company, at least Grimoire of Souls was fun.>>726021136Was it Platinum Games?
>>726018407Haven't gotten to it yet.Stuck on trying to get good ending for Aria of Sorrow.Then I move on to the DS ones.
>>726019436what if shanoa was your sister?
>>726021017>harmony of despair on steam>doing runs with anons from the threadssounds fucking kino>>726021017you're probably thinking of the minigame in mgs delta that was outsourced to platinum
>>726021381>you're probably thinking of the minigame in mgs delta that was outsourced to platinumI wonder if that was a preview of sorts to test if Platinum can make a Castlevania game.
>>726018407Shanoa backshots.
>>726018407We most certainly do. Best DSvania and easily Top 5 games in the franchise.
>>726018407The stamina based combat was a huge improvement over the MP + store potions system from the previous games. BUT half of the games are literally corridors, as in you find a new area and it's just a single line on the map, no exaggeration. And there are tons of NPC fetch quests for RNG drops.SOTN is still the least shit Castlevania to this day.
>>726023553>store potionsRPG elements always felt the most vestigial to me, wonder why that stuck around since SOTN and not motion inputs or something. I suppose you can grind, and chug potions at the slightest hurdle, but that always felt like using items in DMC to me. And the one game that really leaned into RPG grinding and crafting was much worse for it. In all other cases exploring was just a better way to get bigger numbers.
