Let's talk more about the new game that, while if it's fun or not may vary from different gamers, it isn't a Netflix woke writing slop like some ragebaiting posters are making it to be.
>>750095213>don't listen to the HATERSbad games always have people saying this
>>750095380Anyone is free to hate the game. I'm just warning about the larpers who spread misinformation about the story before the game came out and still try to fool those who didn't play it.
>>750095786It was datamined, anon. And they turned out to be correct. Sorry you got stuck with buyer's remorse over a dud. Don't get emotionally attached to a game release next time.
>>750096037>And they turned out to be correct.Can you post it where? Because I finished the game and saw the thread, they were saying the church was evil, Rose was a woke girl boss, Trevor died emasculated... and none of that happened.
>>750095213To me it's a 7/10 kinda game, I overall like it but I've got a few major issues with it.>movement and general combat feel isn't anywhere near as good as most of its contemporaries, it's like they wanted to bring in the slow movement and deliberate attacks of classicvania but since the game is otherwise designed like a modern metroidvania it falls flat, I played Lost Crown shortly before it and the difference in how good it feels to just run around and do shit is night and day>weapons are fucking boring, there's four flavors of sword and there's no difference between the weapon tiers until you hit endgame items at which point everything becomes busted, they really needed more diverse weapon types and to spread the gimmicks out a little more outside of the top tier>the music, obviously, like damn this shit sucks>>750096037You are schizophrenic, and I consider you a lesser being.
>>750096187If you didn't listen in the first 20 threads why will you start now?
>>750096343You made a thread so you could keep talking to yourself, anon. It's not healthy. >>750095238
>>750096373So you can't deny my facts because I actually played the game and you didn't. Got it.
>>750096568Remember when you said exactly this, probably four dozen times over the last three days? Everyone else does.
>>750096343Pretty much my exact thoughts on the game.Felt like it was made by a competent team who lacked talent, if that makes any sense.
>>750096558I'm the OP. That one isn't me. I'm the guy factchecking the schizo, who I think it's you.
I want to talk about Rose’s pussy. What are your thoughts on Rose’s pussy?
>>750096750Carmilla...
I don't get why they made rose so small, she looks like an angry manlet
>>750096576>CV game where you play as a Belmont, a Morris, and a Renard each with their own unique playstyle all working together before deciding which one ultimately faces Dracula with the Vampire Killer never ever.
>>750096558Don't listen to him, schizoanon. We're the same guy. This is all just a conspiracy to make you weak so... uh... the games will always be given to evil westerners!
>>750096875She looks way better with a bigger model
>>750095213It's a good game. Definitely worth the 22ish bucks I spent. But they really should have done a better job with the music. And the face portraits. If those 2 weren't an issue then you probably wouldn't be seeing so much shitflinging. The Library really is fucking atrocious and some of the Paris music does get repetitive, but I do like the Castle Main Lobby and the Clock Tower.
>>750095213After playing it a 2nd time tweaking the difficulty to make it harder its just overall middlingThe only neat part is how knowledge gates affect a repeat playthrough but ita not really based on secret movement tech so its less cool
>>750096875>>750096987Bigger Rose Theory
What bosses do you want for DLC? I’d like to see Galamoth againMaybe Legion too, although he’s kinda been done to death, so maybe not
>/v/ says it doesn't feel like Castlevania Can anyone explain this complaint to me? For me it feels like CV from the weapons to the story to enemies to progression. The only annoying thing is the platforming, which I do agree needs to go.
>>750095213/ourgirl/ loved it!
>>750097606>What bosses do you want for DLC?This lil nigga.
You guys said Leon is emasculated and talked down by Rose, but I felt he was treated with a lot of respect being a force of good and earned his redemption (along with her) in the end. It makes me want to experience his story, but I heard his game was dogshit. Is it at least worth playing for the story?
This bitch delivers her lines like she's freeclimbing a mountain in the dark with an army of ninjas chasing her
>>750095213I agree. I wouldn't call it good but it isn't nearly as bad as retards on 4chan are making it out to be
>>750097845The story is very basic that I can't recommend anyone play it for the story. You're unironically better off just watching a cutscene compliation on youtube or something.
>>750097606Creaking Skull super boss
Thanks to the Anon who told me to stack defensive relics. I think the devs fucked up the calculations because stacking the>-50% reduced damage from front>-50% reduced damage while out of mana>-80% damage if taking damage within 6 secondsRelics literally made bosses do less than 5% damage per hit lmao
>>750097402kek
>>750097845No, but supposedly they’re shadow dropping a 3D collection on Halloween and Curse of Darkness is worth playing.
>>750095213Looks ugly and cheap so I won't be playing it either way.
>>750097857I don't know what you mean by that but it made me chuckle. Thanks anon
>>750097626The game is mediocre but because /v/ is /v/ people are acting like it is the second coming of Satan
>>750098005Was paranthropus not skeleton enough, you insatiable bone slut?
Sepia game when?
>>750098243He was cool but i need all the bones
>>750098268Her design is so much better without that stupid cat ear nun hood on.
>>750097845LoI is a good game and the best 3D Castlevania.
>>750097939>>750098107Shame I was curious about Leon since he was a good character here and his downfall seems interesting. Maybe I'll just try AoS next since you fags keep shilling it. Thanks.
>>750096343The music isn't great but it's serviceable.Seeing the statue of Lisa in the garden was kino.The game is a bit too streamlined but it has SOVL.
>>750097606>Creaking Skull>Slogra and Gaibon>Cyclops for Sypha's vicarious revenge>The Creature>Abbadon>Headhunter but only the part where she's a lizard girl>Fuck It, Death 3
>>750096343>the music, obviously, like damn this shit sucksPost the best track of the game, let me judge before i buy it
>>750097606Id rathey the frogs dont touch this game again
>Isaac gives you timestop AND the invert from BloodstainedNigger I wasted 2 hours trying to unlock the entire map when this faggot has the final abilities to clear it?
>>750098268Sepia game with a monster girl theme.Make all the monsters cute girls.
>>750097759Don't know who the fuck that is but I'm gonna make some points just for fun>callback to the showOh boy, it's one of those.>soundtrack was bangerEhh, music taste is very personal but even so, I would call anything a banger besides hearing Blood Tears again.>dialogue was bad/cringeI didn't thought so, I play with Japanese audio and there's some difference in the English text, but it wasn't anything noteworthy for good or bad.>switching relicsLots of relics are useless but then again so were many weapons in previous games so I guess that evens out.>getting lostlol skill issue
>>750095213>Let's talk more about the new gameIt reeks, get lost.
>>750097845Dogshit is isn't. I think it's an alright game. It's a beat em up with the whip but since there's no XP system fighting is kinda useless unless you need to. Music is god tier amazing but unfortunatelly most of rooms and corridors look the same. You're already interested so I think it's worth giving it a try.
>>750097857Not my Rose. This one is better.
>>750098998>>750099219>playing a game set in fucking france with european people in japanese audioFucking weebs.
>>750097759>>750098998How do you get lost in this game lmao
>>750098107Possible, but so far that's just conjecture because 3D characters appeared in the 40th anniversary video.
>>750097606>>750098571SUPER DEATH
>>750098608I'd say this is the best onehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BVoqDg9rq8
>still no hand drawn Rose porn What’s the fucking point of having a feMC if you’re not going to sexualize her?
>>750099463Hallmark of a failed MV
>>750099314Weeb website.
>>750099593Then why is everything in English instead of katakana? Why does this place do western holiday shit like April Fools Day instead of Golden Week?Fuck off.
>>750099407That one is good.
>>750099463She at least has her thighs out while wearing the Sonia skin
>>750099575nobody sexualised Miriam
>>750099691Because it's a weeb website not a Japanese website
>>750099691You don't even know what weeb means lol
>>750099731Artists are too lazy to draw the rose patterns every time
>>750099731Miriam sexualized herself.
>>750099463hand drawn sexualization is on the downturn, sadly. Even everyone's favorite shit to goon to like Stellar Blade has maybe less than 20 japanese doujins. Everyone would rather just do blender or use AI.
>>750095786It wasn't bad, but there are better castleroid-soulslike-hollowknight-vanias out there. Not really something you want to hear coming from the premier series in the genre, especially after being dormant for decades.
The Valmanway (Crissaegrim in the original SotN translation made by a Toklienfag) is OP as always. But Alucard Sword is also pretty fun.
>>750099712Rose has some thicc thighs.
can't claude just make a 2d classicvania at this point
i thought the health mechanic felt gay so i won't play more than the demo
>>750100207All the better to squeeze Dracula's only vulnerable spot with.
>>750100146Like what? I've played a ton of them and while most do a single element better, I think BC is as close to a complete package you can get.And no I will not play any furryslop named.
It's literally impossible to die once you get the succubus power and the ability that doesn't stop the use when hit.
I'll just play the dragontitsvania when it releases. the demo was fun
I mostly liked how they did Death in this game, but it only strengthens a looming niggle I've had even since the IGA era, which is that after a certain point he kinda stops feeling like Dracula's henchman/partner and more of a main villain than Dracula himself. Seriously, the guy's constantly busting his ass and manipulating things behind the scenes to bring back Drac, and once he manages it Dracula mostly just ominously looms in his tower until a Belmont/Morris/Alucard marches up those stairs. Death is fully immortal with or without the Castle, and he's constantly starting shit even when Dracula's dead (and before he even existed), so eventually I can't help but wonder why everyone's so focused on the shut-in vampire instead of the guy who lets him loose every few years. Like, if someone keeps letting the tigers out at the zoo, the existence of the tigers isn't the real issue here.I think that if they want to keep making more story-heavy games they should let Dracula be a more active participant in his own series.
Okay, fine, I’ll buy the damn game. But I still don’t consider anything developed outside Japan canon.
>>750100831I think it is because it Death is a force of nature. Like he says in his mercy, he will be around forever. And the Ferryman says the same thing - they existed before Dracula and will continue existing after Dracula dies (for real).
>>750100831It was always a little weird for Death to be number 2 to Dracula
Isaac is the only fun boss in this game.What the fuck was that dogshit Mammong fight.And why the fuck did Jean completely shit herselfmin her 2nd phase.
>>750096037>It was confirmed to be correctThen why is Isaac white and voiced by Liam O'Brien? Why are there so many direct ties to LoI and CoD?Care to explain that, schizo?
>>750101252Talos was fun to dodge and climb around. And Mammon was hard for me but once I got the pattern it was satisfying to win. I guess Death had some challenge, but any other bosses after that it was easy spam attack to win, including Isaac.
>>750101329C'mon, Anon, the schizo went silent for while, do not summon him back like the humas do with Dracula.
>>750101252Everyone is shitting themselves over Mammom, but I beat him first try. In fact I beat every boss first try except Isaac 1 because I got there with no potions. Holy shit that runback was pure cancer.
>>750101398Isaac was only fun because the gimmick of his fight made it flow nice. Everyone else either shat themselves or got utterly demolished lategame like Dracula.King Arthut in particular was so fucking forgettable I forgot he existed. Game can't even act like a proper spulslike.
>>750099731why just now making shit up bro?
>>750099731lmao
>>750101252>>750101398Mammon was the hardest boss in the game for me. He's not bad once you understand his bullshit but he's a very fast flying hitbox that will flatten your ass in a second if you get greedy.>>750101494When did you fight him? I fought him basically as soon as he was available before even getting the air dash because I got very lost and thought I needed to kill him for progression. But yeah, the Isaac runback sucks.
>>750101505>King Arthutgod what a disappointmentgame is entirely all style (lmao) no subtance
>Church statusChurch bad. The bishop is corrupted by greed and become a literal demon>Legacy?Trevor can live or die depending on the route. Leon is turned into a monster though >Art style?Based on Netflix>Music Shit>Gameplay Dark Souls + Dead Cell from the mouth of the devs >LoreWho the fuck care nights>Verdict?4/10. I don't like modern metroidvania
>>750099316I got stuck in Notre Dame for a while because I missed the wall pressure plate to open the path on the left side of the entrance.
>>750101770I fought him before Carmilla I think. Basically when you can get all the pieces yo enter his boss room I did it since I got lost and couldn't figure out where to go. I just found his patterns pretty easy. Although now that I think about it I did die once.But yeah this game has an issue with relics becoming absurdly broken. In that respect it is like SotN and I think anyone crying about difficulty just never explored to get them.
>>750095213>it isn't a Netflix woke writing slopNo one's buy it you dumb faggot, there's a reason this shit is flopping and WoM is terrible. Chuds always -- yes, always! -- win.
>>750102049what a normal post definitely not made by a schizophrenic, I'm suddenly feeling like everyone who disagrees with you is a shill
>>750098472The music is some of the worst of all time in a video game and AI could have done better a year ago. It's abysmal
>>750099316There were a few moments for me (all embarrassing):>Was metagaming and thought I needed to unlock double jump to get to Carmilla but it turned out I just needed to hit the right orbs. Wasted like 3 hours running back and forth the entire map>Main hall couldn't figure out where Brauner was. Didn't make out the connection that Alucard paintings pointed to hidden passages>Got lost longer than I'd like in hall of mirrors and bruteforced all the mirrors until the second to last area when I figured out the gimmick
>wow another platforming segments that entirely hinges on the grappleJUSTFUCKINGSTOP
>>750102093SotN can be broken out of the box with zero gear.
>>750099407Holy shit that is abysmal
>>750102213Wait til you see all the skeleton archers
>>750100386Grime 2Kotama and academy citadel is the best vania in a while, but this board is too casual for it for some reason. Nothing that's not on
>>750095213>>750095786I'm never playing it and will shit on it forever because it looks like total shit. What was the point in making the game look THAT bad?
>>750095213Only snoys give a shit about these garbage "games". No wonder it's a dead series.
>>750100146>>750100386>>750102319This year?MIO mogs everything in 2026. Ass combat but the exploration, world design, and platforming are top notch.
>>750102207>Was metagaming and thought I needed to unlock double jump to get to Carmilla but it turned out I just needed to hit the right orbs. Wasted like 3 hours running back and forth the entire mapYeah this got me too. I don't mind having to figure it out but I didn't even realize it was a puzzle until I ran out of explorable rooms and accidentally solved one while fucking around. I figured I needed some other kind of upgrade to go any further in the library. I don't normally say this kind of thing but I think they could have signposted it a little better.
>>750100386>I think BC is as close to a complete package you can get.It really isn't. Game is middling most of the time.
>>750102393Both games I listed are better than mio. Kotama has probably the best designed 2d boss fights since 16 bit era
>>750099407The person who wrote this has absolutely no idea how music is composed. https://youtu.be/6886UG_pqyI compare.
>>750095213just got the normal ending, bretty good, notre dame was my favourite part, main hall was good too
>>750095213https://streamable.com/h6c5sgThis game is super interesting
>>750096187The original
>>750102716It is impossible to hear this games music for more than five minutes and not become actively upset I'm so glad that with AI, all these old properties are now just meaningless. I can make a game better than this myselfVideo games are just old and used up and not interesting in general anymore though
>>750102716>Rose... easy on the wall chicken...What music mod are you using? Would you say that it generally does a good job of matching the music to different areas?
>>750095213>it isn't a Netflix woke writing slop like some ragebaiting posters are making it to be.The bar is low. We forgotten what is height.
>>750102319Grime doesn't look like my cup of tea and Kotama looked like chink AI slop at first glance, but I'll pick it up on sale now. Thanks.
>>750102860>We forgotten what is height.we also forgotten what is english
>>750102430It almost feels like it was done purposefuly to fuck over veterans since you typically get doublejump earlier in Castlevania games whereas here it's the last movement upgrade (ignoring Isaac's spell).
>>750103010How does it in any way look like ai slop? Retard. Was it the hand drawn set with a relatively unique style?
>>750103048>replied to the wrong postmaybe I was the retard all along
>>750102860My own, did custom loops based on the Vampire survivors CV ost, shit feels tailor made for this game
>>750103131The 3D style is very generic. I've played a lot of low budget 2.D platformers and metroidvanias. But no need to seethe I said I'll check it out.
>>750103394Also forgot animu girls, robots, and weird alien/robots are in every single chink game ever.
>>750103360I don't suppose you're planning on uploading it anywhere? Most of the soundtrack mods I've seen so far are either unfitting in certain areas or jarringly mix and match different OSTs.
>Leon Belmont was leaked the moment the Fallen character was introduced >The entire plot was leaked the moment the demo drop>Everyone shit on the plot for months and weeks before the game drop as a result
Does the new ge say what happened to Hector?
>>750104019Just that he's still around, that he tried to warn the Notre Dame deacon before the game started, and that Isaac is still seething about him after getting gorilla glued back together by Death.
They need to bring back Astarte as a het foil to Carmilla. Someone needs to encourage Rose to take dick.
>>750104352Alucard already fills that role, the ladies love him
>>750100831Speaking of Death. Does anyone have a screenshot of that sick as fuck shot of Death's face that shows up before he revives Dracula?
>>750104781You mean this one? Luckily I take loads and loads of screenshots of everything I play.
>>750099731Come on dude
>>750104897Yes that one thank you very much. I attempted to take a screenshot but i was too slow
>>750095213>it isn't a Netflix woke writing slop like some ragebaiting posters are making it to be.A lot of people like Netflix show. Saying that it isn't that bad isn't helpful because a lot of people will think that it takes inspiration from the "good parts" of the show.
>>750098571Why you kids obsessed with these two monsters in particular, all western castlemania products have these fuckers already because they think they're staples (they're not). Lords of Roncero, netflix shit, all that crap.
>>750103609I might upload it to nexus soon, i'll just finish adjusting some looping points, maybe tomorrow
The entire resurrection sequence was pretty good honestly.>>750105463I just think they're neat.
>>750104897Bro that's so sick and not a fucking generic shot! I want to support Obama and the LGTBQ community to make a more diverse military!
>>750105463They are pretty cool
>>750105553If you don't think bone man is cool then you are beyond saving. I'm sorry dude
>>750100831It was always weird how death had 0 story relevance in soma's gamesyou really don't have anything to say to draculas reincarnation?
>>750106230Right? you'd think he would be very interested in making Soma turn evil. I remember thinking maybe in AOS he didn't recognize Soma as Dracula but that wouldn't make sense in DOS since by then it was known that he is Dracula
>>750095213Sorry not buying your lies and the game. If it looks like the netflix slop, animated like the netflix slop, inspired by the netflix slop, it is a netflix slop.
>>750095213Who is the naked lady?
>>750097759Great tits on whoever this is
>>750107064Damn they are pretty good
>>750106923Alucard
Game desperately needed Frankenstein.
>>750097783We needed 14 sequels to this yesterday.
>>750108992Can't call him that, he's The Creature.
>Isaac's themeBest theme in the game hands down.
>>750109564>famous monster has to conceal his heritage due to rampant antisemitism in the gaming sphere Sad.
>>750109902Bro you must be kidding it sounds like BRAPShttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Un8AyZ-TwR0
>>750110013Jokes on you, I think the OST from Payday 2 and Darktide is some of the best OST out there.
>>750110013I can’t believe how incredibly bad this OST is. The composer seriously needs to be blackballed from the industry.
>>750110080It works in Darktide because of how griny and industrial everything is thereBut in a setting that requires a bit of elegance and finesse? And in the time period its set in? Come on
>>750103867Yeah. But people insisted that Leon Belmont is being disrespected, mistreated, and shat on. When he is actually highly respected and revered and one of your closest allies throughout the adventure. People have been lying about the game since before it released.
>>750102827Holy shit, there's a lot of facts about the story there but also some clever planted fanfiction. Rose never swears, she goes the entire game thinking about Trevor and he never dies in any ending, he's just absent in the total bad ending where it's just you lost to Dracula and became fully corrupted. And that's just one point about that pasta, that guy picked the game's script and twisted for trolling and you all fell for it.
>>750100831death in castlevania is an idea I like and dislike. the repeating element of an infamous penultimate boss is a great hallmark for a series, but a force of nature submitting itself to a rebellious villain has always smacked wrong, that's the exact opposite of what makes the grim reaper cool in general popculture, he's above evil.
>>750110965I don't want Leon if he returns in that form, sad and beaten
Am i insane or is king arthur supposed to be Charles VI? It was a french king who went insane and believed he was made of glass
>>750111334He is only sad at the beginning. He relishes the opportunity to help his descendants make things right.
>>750110013God I fucking hate this composer so much
>>750111014The original story script for the game refer to Trevor as dead in the bad end so that's what it gets. It came out around 1 or 2 weeks before the final game released so people have a lot of time to laugh at the game then or express disgust
Redpill me on Lament of Innocence.
>>7501124566th gen kusoge.
>>750095213it IS a netshits wokeslop piece of trash and it IS unfun as fuck on top of that but neither of those are its greatest sin: the fact that it is in no way shape or form castlevania, it's fucking dead cells silkslop
REMOVE FCUKING SPIKES!
>>750112456No level design, just copypasted rooms and hallways, loading screens everywhere, terrible early 3D combat. It's like a bad JRPG.
>>750099768Weeb is someone who turns on japanese voiceover but doesn't understand the meaning of japanese words, either by listening or reading.
>>750112808You can't even call it a JRPG, all your stats are through pickups and accessories.
>>750099314I switched to Japanese immediately when I heard the American accents. Having yankeedoodle voice acting for a game set in medieval Europe is unacceptable. I considered setting it to French for accuracy but opted for Japanese since I actually do speak it.
>>750113697Same energy as playing Witcher 3 with weeb voices.
