It truly is, absolutely worth grinding that disk faglord.

yes

Anyway, SotN is what you get when you have amatuers making a game and supervision; lot's of soul and terrible balance. It's great fun, to be sure, but it's also fucked. To make the game challenging, I like to play luck mode, cheat death at the beginning, and then take the shortest route between all required bosses, using only save points that are on the way for healing (no saving allowed). The Alucard equipment you glitch death out of is for Shaft and Drac. The game plays way more like classicvania this way. It also demonstrates how awful the balance is in the game; you can literally beat any required boss with starting equipment if you are agile enough. Never beaten Drac though.

I once did a challenge run where I didn't used weapons, I mastered the flying kick, it was fun.

Would you fuck off with your shitty porn game already

Those posts are all more Castlevania related than your bitching is.

>American Konami arcade collection doesn't have the superior japanese versions
Well shit, hopefully they will learn from that and include japanese III in the Castlevania collection.

SotN is the best game ever created. It's the only game I do a yearly playthrough of and still haven't been bored with.

Konami have their heads too far inside their asses, they should just fucking make a new castlevania game, preferably on 2D but I know that they will fuck it up anyways.

I'm interested in this

>game includes many multiple crazy fun weapons with unique game mechanics and gimmicks
>some of the coolest ones require assloads of grinding
>in a game that's only a couple hours long and is well-suited to replayability
>but there's no NG+, so if you DO grind for that weapon, I hope you enjoy it for what little time you have it
>and practically every weapon in the game is eventually outclassed by about a couple of god tier weapons that aren't even that hard to get
>but because the game is so short "eventually" actually means "in about an hour and a half at most"
AoS has it even worse, by the end of the game there's literally only one weapon worth using and every other weapon is made totally obsolete within ten minutes of obtaining it, completely ruining any sense of preference, progression, and reward. I'd like a hack of these games that makes weapon balance more even across the board, I want getting new weapons to actually be something worth getting invested in.

Wasn't there some kind of Castlevania anniversary edition announced/released for PS4 here recently?

Claimh solais is my weaponfu.

way too OP

>the succubus art
those pepperoni nipples were quite the sight for my young eyes

I still need to play these games, I've only ever played castlevania 1 and in the past couple of months I've really been getting into metroidvanias but mostly just the metroid side of that (and hollow knight). What's the best game to start with?

Too good to not use it, alternatively Mystletain and Milican are my two other favorites.

>Mystletain
at least this doesn't have a swing attack

For metroidvanias, just go in order: SotN, CotM, HoD, AoS, etc (i stopped playing after AoS). SotN is fun but a mess. CotM is the tits. HoD tries to be SotN but fails. AoS hits the formula just right, and has the most polish out of all the games.

boy it sure feels great having a soul. i hope no one tries to take it from me

OoE is nice too, DoS is kinda bland but not a bad game.

Igavanias suck balls

sometimes I wish CV weapons didn't become retardedly large and horribly motion-tweened anime trash in the later games

Too slow.

Bloodstained when?

Superb fucking taste. Fuck Dawn of S○y.

The truth has been spoken

no way fag

I remember that feel bro.

There's a SoTN randomizer now available. Randomizes relic locations, item locations and drops, and shop items. Some good shit.

sotn.io/

Does it randomize the castle? if not then fuck it.

>playing a game people beat blindfolded
Lol

>Shaft most likely got to enjoy sex with Ritcher's wife when he took over his body

He really had the last laugh.

It doesn't, unfortunately.

I sleep, when the castle is randomized I will try it, a confusing layout is the only thing that would give me a worthy challenge.

So what's the easiest way to play SoTn on PC.
I can't believe I still haven't played it

For this reason and only for this reason I didn't buy it.

I just used epsxe and it worked great, except for slowdown when the life potion spawns after beating a boss that I never bothered figuring out how to to fix.

>SoTn
This trigger my autism.

Just play it on a PSX emulator, there is also the PSP version that can be unlocked in dracula x chronicles and emulated by PPSSPP, it has the Maria fight/mode and not much more, the saturn version has extra stage but they feel out of place and are kinda fucking bad.

>slowdown when the life potion spawns after beating a boss
Wasn't that intentional?

I love the Castlevania series. And at the same time I fear I will never get another proper installment.

Maybe it was, sometimes it was smoother but not often.

T-thanks.

New to the series, what is the best recurrent enemy, and what is the worst?

>Classicvania Collection
