How excited are you for the next Castlekino?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EpCS2VPsMd8
>pozzed DEI trannyslop
>>746050491>all white cast>pozzedyou chuds lost the plot years ago
Solid cast, sad they could not get the netflix trevor but i guess he's too big for video games.
>>746050413Not extacly sold on the artsyle but I had my fun with Dead Cells and the CV collab they had, so I'm looking forward to it.Glad to the the real full homo Isaac voiced by Liam O'Brien too
>>746050634>cast>in a video gameFuck off nigger.
>>746050413Looks like they got Netflix Dracula and Sypha's voices, as well as original Isaac's english VA from Curse of Darkness.
>>746052234>Netflix voicesas if I needed additional reasons to avoid this like the plague
>>746050413>3d slopnah
>>746050413>Ugly designs>Tranny designs>Background bland af>Looks closer to a dead cells than a metroidvaniaNo hype, i'll just play Curse of darkness
>>746051998Fuck off...anything Castlevania netflix should be ignored,forgotten and mocked
>not a roguelikeMight be their one good game
Visually it does not interest me, I get that it's the devs style but their style just isn't for me.
>>746053273what a pointless show. killed off drac in season 2 then spend the next 2 just meandering around killing his remnants.
>>746050413Its looks OK, i think that in a market as saturate as metroidvanias one of the pillars of that genre could have done a little bit more, also the woman’s screaming all the time does not appeal to me lol
>>746050413Of course Carmilla would be in the game.Burn Konami down for ruining the series with that shitty "netflix anime".
>>746050413Holy fuck that looks awful. And also why are female voice actors always acting so cringe. I don't wanna see your banshee grimaces or "slay girl" outtakes
Interesting to see returning voice actors from all eras of Castlevania alongside new ones. from PS2 to the show. How is the japanese cast?I'm surprised Crispin Freeman isn't voicing Dracula as he did return for the role in the Daylight crossover.>>746054065the carmilla in that game looks nothing like the show version, being closer to her original self.Konami also had nothing to do with the show writing, they only gave them the licence.
i'm just looking forward to punching dracula in the face
Castlevania died in my eyes when they released Judgement. Netflix desecrated the corpse.
The anniversary is in late september or early october. If they have further announcements for the 40th anniversary, which they have teased, it should be there I assume.
>>746050413Not excited at all.There is something really wrong with this game but I cant really point It specifically For one, the gameplay looks weird, It looks sanitized as if following the "best practices" of academic gamemaking; that is, color coded stages, clean safe and readable characters, screen freeze impact frames, faster flashier animations overall. Nothing of this really reads as Castlevania, honestly And then we have the characters , that look straight out of the disgusting animated series. Their personalities all feel fake as well. Trevor is the boring archetype of the old uncle that dislikes adventure; rose Belmont is a bad bitch and Camilla is this sexy vampire prostitute that you have seen for 1000th time that looks straight out of Hades, pornographic fanfic, shitty ttrpg stream such as critical role etc.Lorewise It also seems a bit lost in the whole main canon being set in france, and the use of saint joan of arc is weird and unfitting. At the same time it seems to desire becoming a soft reboot of the series, changing locations to France and whatnot so early in the timelineOverall, doesnt feel like Castlevania, in essence, just in name
>>746055015it's confirmed not a reboot at all. the character descriptions and developers interview literally mention CV3 and COD. It's just an "interquel" game instead of a sequel to the story.
Is Bloodstained 2 just not coming out anymore? I thought it was this year. Would much rather play that.
>>746055205I mean, It might not reboot 3 and curse of darkness, but that doesnt mean It will respect the overall established story
>>746050413Firmly entrenched at Camp Wait-and-See
>>746056298I feels like a reboot is more likely for a bigger game. especially as we know they have multiple things in development for the 40th anniversary.
>>746050413>Joan of Arc is being used as a bad guyNow that's just plain wrong.
gonna play it with jap voices so don't care about the shitty netflix cast
>>746050413>suzi hunter voicing the protagbased
>>746056709>gonna play it
>>746050413>tries to make the Netflix series canon by using the same voice actorsPirating
already pre-ordered :3
>>746056641it's a french game, she's probably possessed by dark magic and you free her from the spell>>746059207it's clearly not, Isaac is the same as the game and not at all like his Netflix self. Only two actors also are returning (Drac and Sypha)
>>746056709>Netflix voices:(>Netflix voices, Japan :O
>>746050413I shan't.
>>746050413I haven't seen any gameplay or level design that really intrigues me. I'm not even sure if it's a metroidvania or classicvania. I've enjoyed both in the past, but there's so many games out that I need something more. I really hope they can bring the franchise back, but I'm not sold on this entry yet.
>>746059397>>746056641The demo previews already showed that once you defeat The Fallen he is freed from the curse and becomes your ally, it wasn't shown but I'm pretty sure they mentioned is the same with Joan (while Medusa remained antagonistic even if after turning into a card)
>>746056709Funny how we just had a thread yesterday where retarded thirdie weebs were crying about how you should always play games in the language native to the developers. And like I said then, when it's a western studio developing a game based on western mythology, the eternal /v/irgins will still play in Japanese like the hypocrites they are.
>>746050413I'll probably play in nihongo because that sounds really not great
>>746050413I'm looking forward to it desu.
>>746059827honestly I'd rather it have a french audio track, that was fun to have in furi
>No Crispin Freeman as Dracula
>>746050413>No soundtrack by Michiru Yamane Pass
>>746060732yeah as a dead cells and castlevania enjoyer I'm really looking forward to this game but I do not expect the soundtrack to hold a candle to the mainline games
>>746051998Richard Armitage has done games like Total War: Warhammer, so I'm not sure he considers it beneath him probably asks for a much higher pay rate compared to other VAs though
>>746056641She was a 14 year old girl, who was never educated or taught right from wrong, who got a LOT of her friends killed because she thought she could hear god.In the end it was her friends who sold her out and got her burned alive. What does that say about her.She is the most overrated teenage girl in history.
>>746060807who is doing the soundtrack for this?I'm guessing it isn't the same guy that did Rogue Prince of Persia, which the devs also worked on
>>746060524Maybe he'll voice Hector.
>Erica Lindbeck>Ray ChaseThey were Miriam and Gebel in Bloodstained.
>>746061097She was captured by the Brits who judged her in her in their own courts. Who already wanted her dead because she absolutely humiliated them by turning the tide in a hundred year war. Who do you think betrayed her?
wow they actually white washed Isaac. Fuck Konami.
Why are they bothering shadowing Dracs face out? Make me think there'll be a midgame twist of some variety.
>>746061654>*judged her in their own courtsFug
I liked the voices for Sypha and Dracula
>>746061654>by the Britsit was the Burgundians, not the English
>>746054065>Of course *RECURRING BOSS* would be in the game.No shit?
>>746050413I like dead cells so it should be fun I hopeIt definitely doesn’t look like a Igavania though >>746061694Wow, he actually looks like Isaac, I’m surprised, I guess frenchies are based
>>746061097Se is a saint you pagan indian nigger, you should bem more pious and show respect to the martyrs
>>746050413>shitty offbrand Bloodless but brownNo thank you?
>>746061843I see my mistake. But the Burgundians were still enemies of France. So the point still stands
>Men le bad>Belmonts le bad>Christianity le bad>Jesus le bad>Goodness and righteousness le bad>DRACULA LE GOOD>SATAN LE GOOD>EVIL LE GOOD>WOMYN LE GOOD GOTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>746062860the game won't be about this...but go on and create your own imagined drama.
>>746061097Damn that bong asshurt is still going strong I see>hundreds of years spent seething over losing to a little girl that loved artillery>court theologians out-debated by a kid that could barely sign her name>killed her for wearing pants
>>746052234>Netflix voices...and dropped.
>>746063061Not the same anon but there will, at the very least, be there a anti-church/inquisiton subtext if not a villain outright. Perhaps this will be the cause of dracula early revival?
>>746063154tbf Sypha also (never?) got a previous voice actor before the show, and getting Drac's show VA probably is good for the advertising, including people who abandoned the show due to Dracula dying pretty early in.
>>746063312The church and king of France literally are the ones calling Trevor to stop the events of the game. So I really don't know.
I remember there was leaks about this or something a month or so ago that said the game shits on Leon Belmont which pissed me off as he was such a virtuous man in Lament of Innocence so to have him go down a dark path in the lore of this new game is such an insult to his character. https://youtu.be/5QU8TPu30Uk?t=499
>>746063374CV Judgement had voices
This franchise changing from a classical theatre vibe to anime vibe over the years really ruined it.
>>746063496Eh if he was cursed by someone else or ended up forced to be cursed to protect people. I think it's fine.only sharing VA in japanese though, the english is done by Ray Chase
>>746050413The artstyle is isn't very appealing, looks cheap
>How excited are you for [westoid licensed fanfiction] made by a bunch of frenchmen who have nothing to do with CastlevaniaIt's like the entire Lords of Shadow trainwreck taught you nothing at all
>>746063816there's multiple project in development, one of them is probably japanese
>>746063953Konami has, to my knowledge, nobody left who worked on Castlevania so it doesn't really matter.The people who work on the games are the important part and Konami doesn't have any, the fact that they're still insisting on whoring the IP to random western devs is just the icing on the cake.
>>746064165They actually still has a few people though they mostly are scattered.Supposedly the mobile game they made some years ago was by old guys from Kojimbo's studio and they are back on their old ways. so they might have to create a new Castlevania team made of the few veteran left and brand new people.They may also ask for another japanese studio.
>>746061694Netflix Isaac is a completely different character. This role fixs the old school Isaac better
Why aren't they spotlighting this guy?
>>746050413nah it looks like shit and pozzed
Dracula already died not that long ago before the events of the game, it be funny if the Netflix drac actor ended up voicing a "fake dracula"
>>746064165intellectual property needs to be fairly divided among creative contributors and business interests by default with significant protections against signing away your rightsits utter insanity that we're using imaginary immortals to manage creative works, and results in situations like this where the product is by nature false advertisingno less ludicrous than someone picking up a discarded gucci bag and billing themselves as a fashion designer to sell it to you at a premium
>>746050413>LITERALLY WHOvideo game voice actors want to be celebrities so bad it's pathetic.
>>746065217worse, they bedazzle the bag first
It just doesn't look like Castlevania to me. Nothing about it does
Your random trivia for the day is that Netlifx Sypha is also the English voice for picrel.
>>746065346Considering how much time the art style changed including in the canon games (and even between the iga games), it's one of the few franchise where saying this doesn't really work.
>>746050413Looks like shit. Looks gay. Looks like the shit, gay anime written by that atheist retard. Konami should go back to making pachinko machines.
>>746050413Excited? Not very. That said, I will at least play it. I will monetarily reward them if it's good.
>>746065173>false Dracula as the midgame final boss>true final boss is an aspect of Chaos
>>746050413Not very excited because there's no contact damage
>>746065414It's not just the artstyle (although they'd been reusing Rondo sprites for quite a while so there was consistency there), the gameplay doesn't look like Castlevania. The music doesn't sound like Castlevania (in that it sounds bland and shitty) and as vague as it sounds it just doesn't "feel" like a Castlevania game.
>>746050413>netflixvaniapass. i'll wait for the better game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-de45inSnWg
>>746065696Is this true?? I didnt notice this watching the limited gameplay available
>>746065696Seriously? Day one buy.
At least Sypha isn't a pagan girlboss cunt based on the dialogue we've heard from her.
>>746065754curse of the moon 3 when
>>746063496Is Leon being in a rumor still?
>>746050413I hate Netflix Castlevania and I'm worried that they are going to fuck up Lament and make Leon some retarded loser.
>>746050413>I AM A WOMAN>HEAR ME ROAR!
>>746064165>nobody left who worked on CastlevaniaEach Castlevania games was always handled by a completely different internal team up until SoTN. That didn't stop them from being great games.
>>746066273iirc, according to the "leak" it really is Leon but nothing is confirmed yet. The card details are pretty suspicious tho
>>746064946Olrox is already pretty well established
>>746050413Every fucking time I see this game, it just looks worse and worse. Fuck Konami, and those "devs".
>>746067320The reverse arcana probably turns the revived evil. Still worried they will write something gay and retarded either way. I thought the PS2 games were safe as they are not as popular but Netflix ruined one already and now this game will make sure both are ruined
>>746066705>worriedyou know it in your heart
CARMILLA????MORE LIKE TORTILLLAXDDD
>>746067780it's still supervised by Japanese staff unlike the Netflix show, I think people shouldn't be as negative.
>>746050413CRINGE
>>746068097The Japanese are fucking retarded and believe whatever Westerner that tells them this is what the West wants. They can't comprehend being lied to for polictal reasons regarding media at the expense of profit and don't forget Netflix Castlevania was sadly successful
>inb4 Leon turns back to a human and starts the Morris clan just so they’re explicitly not related to the Belnades and Aulins
>>746068280there's nothing "political" about this new game and it's also done by a completely different team than the Netflix show.The Netflix show was American, this game is French. both countries have very different cultures too.
>>746068340it's more likely that Rose end up starting the Morris clan. and Trev has another kid to continue the Belmont bloodline.
>>746068365Using the Netflix voice actors is not something a real fan would do
>>746068419The Belmonts are descended from Trevor and Sypha, so unless the game miraculously ends with Trevor alive and Sypha resurrected I don’t think there’s a chance that Trevor has more kids than just Rose.
>>746068492only two Netflix voice actors returns, and there's also a voice actors from the old games returning. the majority are new.The Netflix show had a small reference in the recent theater play they did, and the play was super loved in Japan with even IGA praising the shit out of it.
>>746068639Could be that Rose has a little brother tbf, he's just a bit too young to fight yet. Unless Trev has a secret brother, the name gotta continue from someway. and it be uncommon at the time for a husband to take the wife name
>>746065654>I'm Dracula? How did that happen?
>let's make a new castlevania game>*makes the most aggressively generic indie looking game imaginable*Probably wouldn't be as jarring if they didn't release those collections and that haunted castle remake but still.
>>746068651>The Netflix show had a small reference in the recent theater play they did, and the play was super loved in Japan with even IGA praising the shit out of it.Appealing to authority and majority isn't going to work nigger. Are you going to pretend like creators don't destroy their own work or audiences don't watch and enjoy the worst shit imaginable.
>>746068843The environments would look better if the colors weren't so oversaturated.
>Please ignore the Netflix Castlevania connections>look Iga was involved and likes Netflix>The Japanese likes the Netflix >Please buy the game I'm not a shill I promise
>>746061694why the fuck is isaac here? he died in curse of darkness and had his soul saved by hector praying for him. Don't tell me they brought him back as a bad guy for a cheap memberberry?>>746063312what you should actually be mad about is how leon belmont is the fallen. Thats fucking bullshit after the events of lament of innocence and how he experienced first hand a good man fall and become a monster.
Cool, Netflix Drac was great.>I'm killing him...
>>746070131>why the fuck is isaac here? he died in curse of darkness and had his soul saved by hector praying for him. Don't tell me they brought him back as a bad guy for a cheap memberberry?All the bosses are resurrected dead people like Joan of Arc and heavily implied to also include Leon. If you read the thread you will see people angry and worried because of it
>>746050413>english vaNo thanks.
>>746050413castlevania only in name
>>746063816Lords of Shadow was kino and I'm tired of pretending it wasn't.
>>746062171She's also fr*nch
>>746070403there's also japanese VA if you want to
>>746070334Leon being resurrected isn't bad as long they don't make him a retard.If it's "he's forced to be that way by an evil man" or "he was forced to get cursed to protect his family" it still be alright to me.
>>746050413What the fuck happened to the dark gothic art direction? This is butt ugly as hell.
>>746070581Yes thanks. The only English dub of a Castlevania game I've ever played is the original SotN dub for obvious reasons.
>>746050413>DEI art style>from the makers of these shitty western vania gamesnah
>>746070770>DEI styleWhat? None of the characters are ugly. Hell, all the characters are Caucasian. You mtf just say buzzwords after buzzwords
Is Dead Cells any good? These guys made that game.
no its slop
I'm more excited for bloodstained 2 desu
>Isaac is white againNetflix slop DEconfirmed.
>>746050491The day we ban frogfags like you will be a beautiful one.
>>746070334>you will see people angry and worried because of itWhere? I don't see anybody actually discussing the game. Are they hiding behind the culture war idiots screeching about Netflix?
>>746070850The last Castlevania thing the Netflix show which they are using the same voice actors and bringing up the Netflix show is used for the games marketing. Said show was written by 2012 fedora wearing atheists where vampires are afraid of right angles and that show also didn't really have ugly characters just race swapped.
>>746070859It's one of the most popular action roguelites.It's pretty good, very fun movement and pace, the main downside is the item pool quickly increases as you play the game, meaning you will unlock a lot of garbage/joke weapons and they will appear as rewards, making your future runs worse. The devs eventually caved and added an option to selectively disable unlocks.
>>746071093he's right though
>>746071171can you point to one thing in the game that's from the show?
>>746071141>Netflix ruined Curse of Darkness>New game is brining in things from Lament and Curse.>People with pattern recognition are afraid.>They are just retarded culture warriors.Kill yourself faggot
>>746071171they only are using two voice actors from the show, they also are bringing new actors and even one from previous games reprising his role after more than 20 years. It also is confirmed still in the game universe.
>>746050413It looks like shit.
>>746050413Kino ending
