What are the best goth games?

Like, best game that is a goth game or best games for goths?
Alice: Madness Returns is the best game for goths.
Asher Wood
like these vampirey gothy aestheics im not sure what to call them
Eli Baker
Any Castlevania game
Devil May Cry 1
Bloodborne
Vampire: The Masquerade
Medievil
Gargoyle's Quest series
Ghost's and Goblins
Quake
Splatterhouse
Bloodstained Curse of the Moon and Ritual of the Night
Kayden Martinez
You mean a GHOTIC game.
Something that has a GHOTIC THEME AND ART STYLE going for it.
Some ghotic themed games resonate with goths, but not all, and vice versa.
SOTN is probably the quintessential one, for a more recent title Bloodborne definitely is up there.
Some parts of Quake 1 qualify, VTMB obviously.
I'm sure there's others, i just can't think of them on the spot.
Hudson Mitchell
ironically, Gothic isn't very Gothic-y
Logan Mitchell
>Gargoyle's Quest
Fuck yea, especially Demon's Crest.
Incredibly underrated, really goddamn dark and thick atmosphere.
>Bloodstained Curse of the Moon and Ritual of the Night
BCoM is based, RotN can go suck a dick with that 2.5D trash artstyle for brainlets.
Elijah Nguyen
I'm hoping Ritual is at least good gameplay wise. I wish the game was pixel art like the other games or at least like Portrait of Ruin where it uses sprites and 3d for the background
Cooper Butler
bump, all i can recommend is BB and SotN and i absolutely love this vibe.
Cooper Adams
It's just shaping up to be an inferior version of OoE.
OoE is the real deal, and also has the best waifu in the entire Castlevania series.
Dominic Parker
does Diablo count?
Michael Ward
>SOTN is probably the quintessential one
Order of Ecclesia probably does gothic the second best of the Castlevania games I'd say.
James Ward
Ok well, let me think:
-Tormentum (more of a goth metal vibe i guess)
-Haunting Ground
Yes,especially the first one and some parts of 2.
Absolutely.
Austin Long
Dark souls?
Liam Perry
Eh.
Honestly Demon's Souls is closer to it, overall more thematically coherent.
Regardless BB nailed it so hard it becomes sorta redundant.
Whenever DeS would dip it's toes into a ghotic atmosphere, BB just dunked it's fucking balls right in so it's not as satisfying to go back if that's what you're looking for.
Jordan Campbell
Agreed.
Leo Wood
The only good Bloodrayne game.
Landon Bennett
Chase Russell
>The only good Bloodrayne game.
Not saying much, the bar was set very, very low.
However i do have a soft spot for Bloodrayne 1, i don't know what it is about that game, it's retarded and poorly designed but also endearing in it's stupidity and dumb violence.
Luke Hughes
bump
Jeremiah Ortiz
What are some games that have cute goth,alt,emo girls in them?
Liam James
i kinda wanna say twisted metal black. its edgy as fuk in a fun pre-9/11 way
Brandon Perry
in awe at the size of this lad
Austin Stewart
Absolute castlekino
Colton Rogers
VTMB definitely, and both Alice games.
Arguably OoE, kinda.
Hunter Mitchell
Ghosts'n Goblins'n Ghouls'n Ghosts.
Jonathan Jenkins
Twisted Metal Black, like a bunch of other TM games, is basically Rob Zombie: the game.
Not quite goth, more closely tied to Industrial Metal, a different flavor.
Still really cool tho, obviously.
And, talking about Rob Zombie, a game that actually feels much closer to the goth aestetic/atmosphere is definitely Nightmare Creatures 2.
Chase Rodriguez
DMC5
Christian Harris
why do you keep saying ghotic?
Levi Clark
>GHOTIC
YOU MEAN GOTHIC
Christian Cruz
Whoops, my bad, i shouldn't type while i'm half drunk.
Gavin Watson
Not the best, but check out Nosferatu, both the 1994 and 2003 games:
Nicholas Price
I LIVE AGAIN
Anthony Sanchez
Welcome to the colony
Nicholas Jackson
Shanoa is my wife!!!
Noah Peterson
What;s OoE? And are the Alice games on Steam?
Dylan Miller
Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia, the cute girl in question he was referring to is almost certainly Shanoa the MC.
Leo Thompson
Castlevania Order of Ecclesia
Ayden Edwards
>What's OoE
What these patricians said
>And are the Alice games on Steam?
Unfortunately not, i think they're on Origin or something, they're firmly under the iron graps of EA.
I think ig you get Alice 2 there you automatically also get a version of Alice 1 that is more compatible with modern OSes, if i remember correctly.
Jason Lee
>TFW NO BIG TIDDY GOTH GF
SOMEONE PLEASE
Cameron Jackson
Do they still make those?
Michael Wood
No, not really.
You'll get a bunch of emo shitters at best.
Actual goth gf is equivalent to actual NEET gf, you'll never get one, because they barely get out of the house ever.
Jayden Torres
I think they discontinued that line around 2010
Carter Allen
Blood Omen and Soul Reaver 1.
Colton Edwards
Holy shit YES, how the fuck did i forget about those?
I must be completely retarded.
Along with SOTN these are basically the #1 goth games.
youtube.com
1000000000/10 soundtrack, goth synth dungeoncore or whatever the fuck if it's even a genre, if it isn't, this is it anyway.
Chase Hall
Hot take: OoE was by far the best looking CV game ever and whoever that main artist for it was, they blew Kojima the absolute fuck out.
Sebastian Perez
No, in terms of character/promotional artwork Ayami Kojima's reputation of being a genius is completely deserved.
She's a visionary, her work is beyond beautiful.
And in terms of in-game spritework, while OoE is really, really good in that regard, it must not be overlooked the simple turth that the game is reusing a shit ton of assets by previous entries.
But yes, Masaki Hirooka is most definitely a very skilled artist, and i'm sad we never got another Castlevania title using his work.
Kevin Edwards
Unfortunately the creepier macabre elements got deemphasized as the series went on in favor of Hennig's dull time traveling fantasy prattle. The story suffered, the game design suffered. It's a wonder anyone remembers the series fondly at all. BO1 is by far the best; even SR1 is a mess (though I quite like it).
Bentley Murphy
Kojima is solid, but as a character designer she's very much a one trick pony. Her best work is stuff like : broad illustration or detached from a specific utilty.
Evan Allen
In game it probably looks the best I'd say, the artwork for it's always going to be down to opinion but I really like it.
Lucas Reyes
I actually think the game looks a lot better now. The assets they showed off in even the most recent trailer weren't finished, they've changed up the lighting and stuff and IMO it looks much more moody and atmospheric. In the demo, for instance, this area was just sort of flat and plastic looking.
Cooper Rivera
Waiting for this game is fucking painful.
Ian Myers
>Alice: Madness Returns is the best game for goths.
That's kinda sad, cause that game is D- trash at best.
Charles Thompson
Firefall
Aaron Martinez
Michael Adams
Demon's Crest.
Easton Bell
As long as it plays well I'm going to be more than happy, shitty 3D has it's charm anyway.
