Which masterpiece do you prefer /v/?
>>
>>736278852
/v/, when did you realize Soma is an Anime Protagonist? He's a Transfer Student to a Japanese High-school, that's totally an anime character!
>>
>Aria of Sorrow
>masterpiece
LOL
>>
I've seen this thread before.
>>
>>736278852
Probably SotN but mainly because of the voice acting and Alucard being sick. Aria is probably the more fun game to blast through but I am absolutely not getting that true ending. I did that for SotN though.
>>
>>736278852
wish sotn had a modern release, I've yet to play it. I love aria though, it's such a perfect game
>>
I like the one that has originality and cool, mature characters. Not the one that is some faggy highschool boy ripoff game.
>>
Aria because most weapons have different movesets unlike SoTN where only rare weapons have unique movesets.

SoTN has was better aesthetics, visuals and music though.

adi shankar faithful adaptations of course!

Symphony of the Night and it's not close. Aria is a little above the middle of the pack among the games.

I just dislike the art and Jonathan

>>736279289
I was about to call you out on your retardism, but I double checked and noticed that in spite of Konami having released more than one Castlevania collection on Steam, SotN is indeed not on Steam. What is up with that? The Castlevania collections are, surprisingly, well made even, yet no SotN?
>>
I prefer Netflix Castlevania

I like both equally. Man, I'm just glad Castlevania's not dead.
>>
>>736283284
>Castlevania
>Not dead
Are you talking about the upcoming one, made by the French studio which also made Dead Cells? If so I vehemently disagree, it's very dead. Are you talking about Bloodstained? If so, I can at least respect your opinion.
>>
SOTN overall.
Fighting inputs for magic casting give you way more options at a time than bullet souls where you can only have 3 at a time. Especially paired with Alucard transformations too.
SOTN had a batshit amount of insane gear. Aria is not bad in this aspect too but there's nothing as cool as shield rod in there.
Aesthetics, music, location design, boss design are all better in SOTN too.

>>736283481
The French game isn't the only one we're getting, another one was leaked before that by the same leaker who leaked Metal Gear and Silent Hill.
>>
>>736278852
Cotm. Sotn and Aos are shit.
>>
>>736281372
The art is unfortunate, but it's still my favorite Igavania
>>
>>736283604
>>736281372
>no jump kick
I wanted to like it but it's just not possible.
>>
>>736283576
Oh, neat. I did not know that, thank you.
>>
>>736283639
No problem, Konami said more projects were coming, so I'm cautiously optimistic.
>>
That would be Rondo of Blood
>>
>>736283604
Agreed. I might also add that the level design can be a bit simple, and bosses are often too easy. Other than that I love it. Also easily one of my favourite Castlevania OSTs, and Yuzu Koshiro is, at least in part, to thank for that, because of amazing contributions such as:

>>736283624
Fair lol
>>
>>736283727
Excellent track
Also, the first 6 seconds of Invitation of a Crazed Moon sounds very Streets of Rage:

lol lmao

>>736283983
but enough about your favorite game
>>
>>736278852
Symphony of the Night.
I love the voice acting.
>>
>first castlemania ever vs worst castlemania ever
>>
Honestly I love Aria of Sorrow too much. I got kinda tired of SotN but I replayed all of these games to death.
Also Aria of Sorrow has an excellent romhack, Aria of Sorrow ALTER.
>>
>>736283930
Very much so. Easily the most underrated composer in video games, in my opinion. Sure, lots of people my age know about him but I feel that he pretty much never gets mentioned in any "normie" circles.
>>
>>736283950
Pretty high since they're not expensive to produce since we have games like Haunted Castle: Revisited and Bloodstained's Curse of the Moon games.
>>
>>736284225
Underrated?
He's practically a plagiarist.
>>
>>736284259
>Bloodstained's Curse of the Moon games.
Are they going to make more of 'em? I know they are going to continue with the Igavania with Scarlet Engagements, but it would be nice if they did a take on Rondo of Blood.
>>
>>736278852
Haven't played either desu, I've worked my way slowly through non NES Vania games over the years, only other one I've really put my time into is Rondo of Blood and I think its probably the best traditional game in the series by a long shot.

>"Uhhh, actually I've heard a 10 second part in a track from another artist that sounds vaguely similar so that's plagiarism!"
By that definition Koji Kondo is probably also a plagiarist

You want actual genuine plagiarism? Listen to these:

>>736284608
He's done practically the same exact shit you just linked with several streets of rage tracks
>>
>>736284654
Lmao, stop being so disingenuous, the Sylphia track is basically 99% copied. No Streets of Rage track is like that. At most a SoR track will have a similar part, but never the entire track
>>
>>736284438
I'm pretty sure they will, both Curse of the Moon games sold well with the first one selling over 500k.

AoS

being a gba game ruins aria imo
the color palette is atrocious and the audio too compressed. Sotn heavily mogs it on that aspect.
The soul system is superior tho
