Order of Ecclesia > Dawn of Sorrow > Portrait of RuinYou might disagree, but if you think about it a little you'll realize you're wrong and stupid for thinking otherwise in the first place.
/v/ HATES castlevania
>>728327772This is correct and obvious. Total Shanoa supremacy.
Yeah I agree with that. We were just in a really long era of people who kept repeating [down syndrome voice] "i wike to expwore" and I guess they felt like they weren't allowed to admit to enjoying something linear. Order of Ecclesia is a tight and challenging experience with a great art style and soundtrack.
>>728328061You take that back
Ecclesia is my favorite game in the whole franchise.
>>728328269Symphony of the Night is the normie pick but it really is the best one
>>728328651Symphony is a great game too and only a real dumb fuck would be mad about anyone considering it the best
I want a new one... Bloodstained isn't the same
>>728328224Yes I'm taking that back
>>728327772Yeah but check this outOld Axe Armor Mode > Julius Mode > Albus Mode > Richter Mode > Twins Mode
Ecclesia is the worst one of them.They just kept getting worse after Aria with every one, so much so that OoE killed the franchise.
>>728330046what a fucking whore. Showing off her back like that shamelessly. Charlotte would never. She is a pure maiden.
Aria > Cotm > Portrait of ruin > Dawn of Sorrow > Sotn > Order of Ecclesia > HodFor a while I disliked cotm and found it worse than Hod, but when I went back to playing in fighter/gradius mode I enjoyed it more than the basic game with the card system (maybe because it's baby mode thoughAlthough I still don't understand why so many people like Dawn over Portrait when it should be the other way around
bump
>>728332668>don't understand why so many people like Dawn over Portrait when it should be the other way aroundIt has the worst castle in the entire series and the portrait areas don't really make up for it. Also that part at the end of the game where you have to do like 5 of them in a row and it's all recycled assets sucks
>>728332668I don't understand how anyone can like Dawn over anything, it's easily the worst Iga game with its mandatory grinding if you want non-shit weapons and how it nerfed everything fun from Aria. Julius mode is all it has going for it
>>728335540>mandatory grinding if you want non-shit weapons>AAAIIIEE WHY DO I HAVE TO REDO THIS ROOM OVER AND OVER FOR THE CRISSAEGRIM FUCK SOTNno one says that. they just go beat the game and move on. same thing
>>728335619Charlotte would never do that
>>728330993>Charlotte would never. She is a pure maiden.
>>728335694SotN gives you the Alucard Sword and the Shield Rod for free and they're good enoughDawn intentionally only gives you garbage to force you into engaging with the shitty crafting system
>>728337956>they're good enoughthe fucking shield rod lets you insta kill dracula
Alright I'm playing through dawn of sorrow again and I have to agree with the crafting system complaints. The soul drop rate is already so low, giving those up just to get weapons is painful. I've already hard to grind like 4 different souls and now I have to grind manticore again because that was actually a really useful soul that I want to use in combat.
>>728327772>Finally switched up the combat after every game since SotN was just jump cancelling>Had a stamina bar long before it was popular>Had the best music since SotN>Used a mix of Metroidvania and Classicvania level design>Had actual difficulty which SotN and the GBA/NDS games sorely lackI replay it more often than any of the other Castlevania games
>>728339801>difficultythe crab, goliath, and dracula are the only hard fights
>>728336435uoohhhhg char cunny ToT
