>10 hours longHow small is the map going to be lmao
>>749664747>t. hollow troon
>metroidvania were 100 hours narrative slog beforeGo back.
>>749664747smaller than your penis (tiny)
>>749664747One reviewer said he had plenty of bosses left to kill after 20 hours.
>>749664967Game reviewers get lost in their own home anon
Oof...it's only 10 hours? I figured it was short for the $30 price tag. Damn.
>>749665421It's thirty bucks? Shit, it should be two Silksongs for that price!
>demo is out>Literally half of the game>3 hours
>>749664821That shitty newgrounds game isn't why OP made this thread faggot
I don't care about the length.My issue is that it's coming across as extremely bland which is the exact opposite of what i'd associate with the japanese Castlevanias.
>>749669123Yeah, i doesnt look like Castlevania at all
749664853>noooo if you want more play time that means it's all going to be "narrative slop"
>>749664853https://howlongtobeat.com/game/129785https://howlongtobeat.com/game/26286
Its probably gonna flop and get a discount on the winter sale.I'll get it then
>>749664747metroidvanias should be 10-15 hours maxbelmont's curse's length is fine but the game is dogshit hollowenous slop
Is this entire thread bait? Castlevania games are not that long. This isn‘t hollow knight
>>749672751>Is this entire thread bait?This is every thread on 4chan. Pretending to be retarded and actual retards.
>>749664747Actually, it's 5 hours long based on the youtube walkthroughs.
>>749664747>10 hours longFirst thing I've heard about this game that sounds like they got it right.
Who said it's 10 hours? None of the reviewers I've seen says that
>>749673001Entire game is here. Have fun.https://youtu.be/WrqMA9OJv9Y
>>749664747I'll only get it with 90% off if at all. Doesn't look promising from the awful demo.
>>749673091Playthroughs are never a good evidence on average game of length though. Many early playthroughers just rush it through, and won't give an average experience for the common player.
RPG reviewer site said it takes 16 hours to 100% a game so 10 hours for gamers sounds about right
Ins up!
>>749673160
>>749673091>5 hoursJesus... and that is including the long winded dialogues
Why is this game so unoptimized?
>>749673348Damn. I was thinking that once you knew what you were doing it would be three hours
>>749673424Day 1 patch was promised bro. No idea why they waited until day 1 to drop it rather than having that prepared already though
I've warmed up to everything except the terrible music
>>749673281I never ever trust those claims. I remember redditorfags and reviewers swearing up and down that Dragon Age 2 was like 60+ hours long. Fuckers the lot of them. I played through it and did pretty much everything as a Mage (god knows why, I still consider it one of the worst games i've ever played to the end) and it was around 17 hours even when I was taking it slowly and exploring everything, actually reading/listening to the shittastic dialogues and I played through both of the final act paths with the mages and templars.
>>749673091>5 hoursJesus, its even worse
I've watched the Anime and really like the aesthetic, but I've almost never played a sidescroller game for longer than a couple of hours. Idk if I can do it.
>>749673424Wdym? 60fps on switch
>>749675024>I've watched the Anime and really like the aestheticGay shit for retards you mean?There's nothing less Castlevania than the netflix ""anime"".
isnt that just the short ending? and the longest one is like 30?
>>749673348I can clear SotN in less than 3 hours and i sure ain't a speedrunner.
Are castlevania games supposed to be longer? I remember beating the gba ones in like 5 or 6.
>>749673091Not even 10 hours lmao how would they cope
>>749664821this shit sucks precisely because it panders to them, a hate letter to castlevania fans
Am i understanding it right? You have 7 weapon categories with 4 linear upgrades in each, but only the last upgrade gives you something new for these weapons in terms of movesets/gimmicks?
>>749673091Uh oh, the konami lawyers were monitoring this thread.
>>749664747Dunno but I'm buying it since I like playing video games.
There's only 8 bosses.
>>749676407Hades looking motherfuckers
We must be better Belmonts #Imwithher
>>749676407but this is missing death and the wolfman guy.
>>749676407You removed Death, Talos and Arthur
>>749676407>>749676440Yeah what the fuck, it looks like someone ai generated these with hades art style
>>749676407Looks cool, but also too much like Hades.
>>749666850>Advertising tranny furry garbageKys
>>749676407Who spluged green coom in Isaac's face.
>>749676407>removes bosses to make it look worseLoser
>>749664747>add a Sonia Belmont costume as easter egg>the game could have been about Sonia BelmontI hate these faggot fucking devs and I can't wait for this shit to bomb, let this series fucking die
>>749676407Hades 3
>>749673091Should've been cheaper than hollow knight
If it was called Metroid Aran's Curse it would be 69.99 plus tip and just as shortBe glad
>>749677804This
>>749664747What? SotN is 9 hours long, AoS is 4 hours and these are the exploration games
>shit design>shit music>shit characters
>>749676407"we have Hades at home" ass artstyle, and that already looked like shit to begin with
>>749673316How is that cope? First search on youtube has og hk at 3h37 and silksong at 11h57, do you think it's representative of the average playthrough for these games?
>>749676407Grok told me there's atleast 16 bosses, why are you lying?
>>749664747All previous Castlevania Metroidvanias are also about 10 hours on a first playthrough
>>749666850Sorry but i don't want to play as female anthro Spyro
>>749673996I'm so sorry to hear that anon
>>749666850Kys
>>749671398very cool, tourist. Now play sotn and tell me how long it took
was Castlevania's movement always this slow? or maybe I just played Metroid too much
>>749684737It's usually even slower
>>74966474710 hours is more or less the average time for a Metroidvania.For context, if you casually rush AoS you can finish it before the 5 hour mark.
>>749685268Yeah my Aria replays tend to last about 4-6 hours depending on how much of the map i want to explore
>>7496734244k locked at 240 FPS on my rig, lil bro. It does have some technical issues, though. Game won't boot above 200 FPS when restarted. You have to cap it, then uncap it when you've loaded a save.
>>749684737Slower. Pre-SotN, every character slowly walked forward.
>>749669523>Yeah, i doesnt look like Castlevania at allYeah, it does though. Fucking retard.
>>749672564>the winter sale.This fucking retard still waits for steam sales like there aren't better prices year round elsewhere since the end of flash deals, lmfao
>>749675024>I've watched the Anime and really like the aesthetic, but I've almost never played a sidescroller game for longer than a couple of hours. Idk if I can do it.Holy shit, why would you post this or say this out loud?
>>749677804>I can't wait for this shit to bomb, let this series fucking dieToo bad for you, cringelord, because neither of those things are going to happen. Seethe, faggot.
>>749664747THAT WILL BE $89.99 FOR STANDARD VERSION SAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
>>749685728lying fucker
>>749685728It's 30 bucks.
>>749664747SotN is 8 hours.
>>749684737Way slower lel
>>749680720>>749685728>>749685870The discourse on /v/ is just complaining no matter what. Don't let anyone have fun, don't let any developers have a success. Everything is bad and if you can't quantify why something is bad, you don't have to; Just call it gay or retarded or say 'its shit lmfao' or say it's for troons or call the writing millennial writing or reddit-tier writing
>>749685812>It's 30 bucks.It's $22 if you're not a braindead pleb that doesn't know how to buy a PC game outside of Steam.
>>749677804>let this series fucking dieDon't they have another larger Castlevania game project going? Konami is deliberately trying to revive Castlevania, the wrong way, of course, but yet again, Castlevania games have a rather bumpy track record with stinkers like 64, 2 those shitty Game Boy games and whatnot. Castlevania doesn't have a perfect array of games, it is usually just a few remarkable ones.
>>749686063Keep coping.
>>749671398Notice how neither is a Castlevania game.
>>749664747The fuck? I'm over 8 hours in the freaking DEMO of that sotn furry dragon game. You're telling me this shit is the same as a fucking DEMO o that?
>>749666850No, it's not half the game. The map % is the map that is completeley done.
>>749686336>8 hoursNigger I finished that demo in 3, but yeah I hit up 48% rate before I got to that "end" part.
>>749686418But I got all the souls, maxed most of them out, and got in the Lost Theater where I'm not supposed to even be. That's why it took so long.
>>749664747Nah, I like that, I don't want to play the same game for over 60 hours, I like short polished experiences, I don't have much time during the day, thanks Konami
>>749686505The moron devs didn't know how to make a demo then, now wait more then half a yet to have the privilege to pay full price for the other half of the game please.
>>749686336>>749686418Samefag
>>749686336That is more of an Aria clone with maybe some DoS asthethicd, but SotN it ain't!
>>749664747the nortubel of castlevania
>>749686615Saar Saar Saar, Yakuza, Yakuza!
>>749686573I'm OK with waiting. Savegame transfers over.>>749686665Fair point.
Estimated 'hours to beat' does not tell you about the quality of game nor if it's worth playingthis is a dumb thread based around a useless metric
>>749686191Cope? I'm just telling you, a secondary, how Castlevania as a franchise works, personally I have more faith in bloodstained.
>>749686063We're getting a 3D collection but other than that they don't have anything planned.
>>749686013>rent free
>>749687029Ah, time for a CoD replay in full HD.
>>749664747Is it already up in piracy sites?I don't respect dead cells devs to pay for their slop, but I want to properly hate the game so I must play it
>Sonia costume is actually sexy>locked just behind a konami codeWhat the fuck?Feels like they've been doing a Sonia game but changed their mind
>>749664747I will never accept people saying this game looks good, it looks like shit and period.
why do trannies seethe when you say it looks like an ok game but a terrible castlevania game?
>>749664821I'm glad one of the hk devs trooned out so I can just laugh at them in Metroid threads and ignore them now
>>749687103Copium magnuz
>>749687309Not liking HoD is a clear sign of anti-soul.
>>749687309I don't understand what that anon would even be coping about. He just wants to replay Curse of Darkness
>>749685697It's bombing you stupid dumbfuck shill
>It's bombing you stupid dumbfuck shill
>>749687196It's dumbfuck shills like this >>749688916They're getting paid for you to buy it but no one here wants to touch this shit
>>749664747That's the perfect length for a metroidvania. Too bad this game will be shit anyway
>It's dumbfuck shills like this >>749688916 (You) # They're getting paid for you to buy it but no one here wants to touch this shit
>>749676407>Faggotious Troonyville artstyle.As if you could not loose more faith due to faggots and foids. God I absolutely hate these retards.
>>749689404Why are ya cryin?
>>749676407Literally poorman's Hades lmao.
>>749675024You watched the Netflix cartoon? Yeah I hate that absolute ass Western cartoon Castlevania Netflix made.
>>749689474Even the OST sounds like diet ai Hades shit
>>749664747only 10 hours? Patient Pablito not gonna be happy with that one
>>749666850Spyro ahh looking protag fr dawg kek W
>>749690275Well I didn't like the obvious "totally not fur bait" designs but it was less in your face then that God awful yaoi bara FUJO fur shit game people were splattering all over, or even the Hollow Knight series, it's basically an Aria clone, and no, I didn't saw any soft woke in Magnavale.what I hated is that you only unlocked the damn fast travel system half way through the game, I say half way because the demo is rumored to have the full map but gated with roadblocks you cannot overcome because they gated the items needed, I hated having to go on foot and not having teleporters earlierThe demo lasted me 3 hours.
>>749690214who the fuck are you talking about?
>>749691817Mad Miguel likely.
>>749664747Super Metroid is a 4 hour game for first timers. 10 puts this around Metroid Dread or Symphony of the Night, which is a little long in the tooth for me but seems to be the fandom ideal.The fuck do you want out of these games?
>>749691817Rustled Rodriguez
>>749666850If there is one thing I fucking HATE about indie pixelslop titles, its when you get to an in-game screen and are immediately blasted by art and font assets with 3-5 different fucking resolutions all clashing.Garbage.
>>749664821>hollow troon is when you pay 20 dollars and get a 80+ hours gameBrb becoming a hollow troon asap
>>749691417You know it hits me, tilesets are alright, they are not SotN quality for the most part but they are equal to Eclessia, in which they dont rely on cheap photoshopped color indexed pre-rendered assets or photos like DoS and PoR did at least.But the damn sprites themselves loooked pretty MEDIOCRE, clearly looking more like GBA sprites then anything but bigger, but the Aria sprites looked like that because they were made for the smaller GBA screen size dimensions and colors, these rarely do look like they could fit in SotN (and the DSvania's new spritesets had the same issue half the time, specially in the color department)
>>749686009>nooo think of the wholesome chungus devs!!!!Of course it's a bootlicking tendie lmao
BEHOLD A TRACK WHICH IS BETTER THAN THE WHOLE BELMONT'S CURSE OST!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5u5ljn4EwY
>>749687146omg saar it has sexy sexxxx sexy seeex sex sex costume??? im gonna buy now saaar yes saaaaarrrr so sexy saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar
>>749687146>>Sonia costume is actually sexyGrow up you stupid faggot>nooooo, muh heckin' sexy pixels
>>749692248I'd rank it above most igavania OST's
>>749692060Ecclesia was dogshit ugly, that's not the compliment you think it is
>>749692720best looking Castlevania
Hollow Knight is a franchise for troons? Since when is this a thing? Almost everyone i know that likes this game is some hardcore soulslike bro or some shitOne of my friends loves this game and he's right wing
>contentniggers are now demanding Castlevania games be 50+ hour slogsIt never ends.
>>749691817>he doesn't know Seething Santiago
>>749692871>Almost everyone i know that likes this game is some hardcore soulslike bro or some shitAnon... the hardcore soulslike bros are all trannies. Where the fuck have you been for the past 6 years?
>>749692863Wanna share some of your glass?
>>749693402i'm straight edge sorry
>>749673091Lmao cuck
Is it really too much to ask that we get a new Castlevania game with pixel art like this?
How?
>>749694613Yes actually. It won’t sell to normies.
>>749694727I dunno dude I don't have the game yet
>>749695326Puzzles with toggling walls always drive me crazy, I keep switching them on and off at the wrong times.
>>749694613Hideous
>>749676407I wasn't feeling the art style after the reveal and seeing these designs just reaffirms that
>>749694913Idk the Ninja Turtles game did well enough. Could you IMAGINE getting a Castlevania with spritework of this quality?
>>749694727Hideous
How are boss runbacks? I know they give you the option to respawn outside the door.
>>749694727I hate jump puzzles.
>>749664821>faggots and troons trying to shit on a top tier game that the faggots and troons can't ever achieve to make.
>>749687209tl;dr?
>>749692720The tilesets on the DSvanias had too many colors but very low contrast.
