It's fun. Just ignore the first part on the ship and the castle itself is great.

The horrible visuals beg to differ

You got suckered into a meme.
The game looks fine.

It's horrible looking. I can see that with my own two eyes. No need to get memed by anyone else into noticing it.

The game has lackluster boss fights, a few horrendous areas, awful cutscenes, some pretty bad bugs and a meh finale. However, it’s music is fantastic and it’s gameplay loop is incredibly addicting. Despite all of its shortcomings I’m addicted to it and have had fun 100%ing it.

Symphony of the Night wasn't exactly a bowl of roses either. This game came out the same year and on the same system as Resident Evil, Megaman X4, and Oddworld
And the GBA/DS Castlevanias were on GBA/DS specifically so they didn't have to push visuals in any real way

this, game has boring bossfights, a stupid 3d effect in some places, hilariously bad cutscenes, and some bugs and the finale/villain is meh

But the meat is there and I don't (just) mean Miriams thighs. The gameplay is fun, the exploration is fun, there's plenty of autism to satisfy with upgrades and a crafting system and techniques to master and you can play dressup with you waifu

Why not just pirate it then?

Are any techniques as godlike as UN, DEUX, TROIS?

Air backdash cancelling into jump is so good early game for skipping places

God forbid I want a Castlevania sequel to look cool and not strain my eyes.

Honestly I wish they would have just copied the Curse of the Moon boss mechanics. It plays everything so safe and the bosses have practically no mechanics to them. I was so confused when the Twin Dragons didn’t have a second phase where they merge. The only great boss in the entire game is Zangetsu

Clever shill tactic.

Both games look better in motion than in screenshots.

As someone who regularly plays and enjoys the look of DS and PSP games I really don't see how that's a problem.

Castlevania games have never made graphics a priority, and if your eyes are being strained, that's on you, buddy.

It’s funny. The levels in curse of the moon are kind of whatever because they’re just CV3 levels for the most part, but the bosses are great. And the levels in ROTN are great but the bosses suck because you can just spam portrait and sit there mashing attack. There has to be a way to make both great.

Try running at resolutions higher than 320x200 if your toaster can handle it.

I'm playing that right now! The best shit.
And honestly exactly how "Advanced" I want the graphics in my Castlevanias. Like, sure, upgrade the resolution some, maybe add some AA, but otherwise, I'm 100% cool with these games looking exactly like this.

>Castlevania games have never made graphics a priority
No, but their artstyle made them stand out and look great anyways. Shame Bloodstained looks much worse than your average indie game by comparison.

This so much. It’s sad because I love the earlier levels in Ritual so much, but the later levels feel so much worse. The Ice and Fire zones are awful. They aren’t interesting or fun to go through and are incredibly short, yet the ship, garden, entrance, the cathedral and the library are all AMAZING. If the game had better later zones, more interesting bosses and no bugs it would have been a 10/10.

Oh, it's a sword. I've watched a bunch of streams and always thought she had her arm raised.

I honestly prefer this aesthetic. Less shiny everything, so the things that are supposed to stand out actually stand out properly from the background.

>much worse than your average indie game

5 different companies all pitch in on a project at various stages with a ludicrously inflated scope and somehow managed to not set the whole thing on fire.

That alone is a monumental achievement. Clearly, Iga's experience in dealing with shoestring budgets has paid off.

Make no mistake, this is a low-budget game through and through (yes, that 5 million is chump change compared to the cost of development, especially with all the ports). But, much like the gothic horror genre in film, it makes the most of what it's got, and isn't afraid to not take itself seriously.

Game like this could have been created with less than 1 million.

And this game looks like what I think a PSP game would look like if it were released today.

I'm bored of your hyperbole. Last (You) you'll get from me, savor it.

Good post, intelligent user among retards.

Not with Curse of the Moon and all the fresh assets that needed to be cooked, no. Maybe if they had some recycled assets and didn't need to port it to everything. Also took too long to live off of the initial Kickstarter funds (which was only supposed to serve as market viability testing instead of funding the whole damn game)

Shouldn't have insulted other games for looking "shovelware" when the game you're defending looks like utter garbage LMAO

Average salaries: designer 74k, artist 75k, programmer 93k. If your team consisted of 2 programmers, 1 designer and 1 artist you could employ them for 3 years. Need someone to do interviews, keep everyone on task, handle social media, communicate with backers, etc.? That's another 100k. Now you've got a little over 2 years to make the game. Do you want music, sound effects and voice acting? Office space? Another artist or two? ...

You are trying really, *really* hard to hate an otherwise great game for a completely arbitrary reason

Literally one guy in this entire thread mentioned it and you are seething this hard over it?

Hollow Knight's budget doesn't reflect its work hours. It took a lot of unpaid hours and some unpaid interns to get that out the door. Much easier to do when you're three guys in a basement working on your passion project than when you're a small company trying to collaborate with other small companies and keep them all fed.

Reminder that Yacht Club punched the numbers and Shovel Knight up to launch would have had a true cost marked at over $1M if everyone on staff was getting paid a decent rate. Their first DLC was made at a total loss financially and the game with all add-ons has now cost over $3M. This is an 8-bit retro game with 1/3 the average play time as Bloodstained for base game, and no voice acting, cutscenes, customization options, symphonic score, etc.

The (rainbow demon lightning thing?) was probably the worst case of dissapointment for me. Was probably the coolest boss in Curse of the Moon and all it did here was jump and occasionally shoot shitty missiles.

It's great except the end boss. My biggest problem with it is how 'classic' it is. I get that this is supposed to ape the old games, but if you like SoTN or AoS then you like this. If you started on hollow knight or something like that it might not have as much nostalgia appeal, but it's still solid

If I were you i'd wait a bit for the devs to correct and patch in some bugs but also new content

Dracula X Chronicles unironically looks a lot better. Probably because of what said, even if it's low poly everything stands out properly and the art design is solid, being the remake of another solid game and all. Bloodstained looks fucking hideous beyond relief even if the game is sorta nice.

Even playing on PC at 4k max settings didn't do this game any favors. So I can barely imagine THE HORROR. It's just irreparably ugly, I don't know how they fucked up so badly in that regard. It's like everything is too messy, too complex, but shit STILL manages to look way too empty at the same time. What the fuck.

I like Igavanias though.

you seem not very normal yourself.

I also thought this was weird. Fighting Zangetsu 2 this field of view felt considerably better since with the normal one he constantly walks offscreen.

To be fair, that armor that offers protection from spikes was hidden in a pretty bullshit spot for something essential to the playthrough.

You need to invert in the boss room where you fought twin dragons to get said armor, then climb to the top of the cathedral thingy and use the giant hand to push the torture device away.

I really don't get it. The way Yea Forums talks about the game you get the impression it looks offensively bad when it's more like a high production Vita title. Sure they could be better and at a few spots some polish would do nicely, but the graphics seem completely adequate to me. There's even quite a few moments where the game felt pretty (especially golden hall).
Feels like a forced controversy.

So what are the actual good shards?
I only used the Bat one because it was easy to get to max level, does great damage, goes through walls, shatters hidden walls.
Great for normal exploring, not so good against bosses but then again who cares about the bosses

100% it, maxed out stuff and done two more runs.

Normal attacks were almost useless compared to shards and I simply don't remember that happening in the previous Castlevania games. They probably had their fair share of broken shit, but playing with weapons was always satisfying whereas in Bloodstained it becomes a chore to kill normal enemies with weapons rather than shards. I think what YOU DON'T KNOW is a thing called game balance.

There's been a forced narrative against this game on here for years now because people wanted it to be Mighty No. 9 Part 2.

Switch weapons. You'll one shot everything with the proper ones.

I unga bungad my way through the game on normal. Shards felt like shit

>I think what YOU DON'T KNOW is a thing called game balance.
Neither do you if you think weapons are worse than shards. The only time shards becomes somewhat better is when you're almost done with the game and even then there is a weapon shitting on all the shard skills.

literally greatsworded my way thru normal,using almost no shard magic and apparently, greatswords fucking suck, don't get me wrong i love them, but people say other weapons do more dps

left, right, left, x
>nothing personnel kid

>but people say other weapons do more dps
More DPS is a meme on your first run through the game. The only time it might matter is for bosses and you spent such a tiny amount of time on them in the entire game. Greatswords one or twoshot everything through the entire game, they are fantastic.
Once you finished the game and clear out the map or need to farm mats to complete 100% of the journal you can switch to one of the meme crit builds weapons since they are faster for boss farming

How do you make yourself broken? I want to tackle the endgame with the most broken shit possible. I saw a clip of someone running through the game with some turbo speed up ability and running while attacking at the same time, killing every enemy in one hit.

I don't think Zangetsu died. Or at least someone didn't. Right before the end credit scene there was someone walking in enough to cast a shadow before Miriam and the guy leaves if I remember correctly.

>feature length
Huh?

How are you having trouble with an igavania of all things?
Unless you're playing this game on Nightmare then you have no excuse. It's fucking easy.

So the answer to beating the boss is to do a shit load of grinding? Cool.

upgraded crissaegrim
crit chance ring
crit damage ring
grind those passives

To be fair, if you're going for medals some bosses become straight up unfair.
While the bounce speed guy on CotM you could see the trajectory and just had to avoid it, in this game he just hits the whole screen at times. It's just a game of killing him before he uses it.

Even if it is Nightmare, Gebel is laughably easy and probably the easiest fucker in the game. I was so surprised how I got the medal beating him without even trying.

gog is drm free

Bloodstained is a game where you spam spells all of the time because almost all the weapons are clunky and slow and you're incentivized to spam spells because mana regens super quick in this game. The "big bosses", the physically large ones, are all disappointing as they lack polish and just aren't very interesting to fight. However, the small bosses are all quite interesting and provide an adequate challenge.

I feel as though the game is prolonged artificially by the fact at numerous times you're forced to find a key item from a single undiscovered space on the map that you weren't able to get to before. You are going to get lost and not be sure what to do next, but this isn't necessarily the worst thing in the world as you get the opportunity to discover new things in areas that you've previously been. I will hazard to guess that everybody who plays this game will have >90% of the castle explored in a single playthrough, because you WILL be searching every inch of it to answer your question of "where the fuck am I supposed to go now?"

I'm disappointed that this is yet another Metroidvania that you really cannot play "out of order." The game has a very strict linear route with roadblocks that will prevent you from going where you want to go.

Those are all just my gripes. Overall, I love the game. The gameplay is solid.

Not the guy, but no. You just need to not be awful.

I didn't grind. That is grade 1. Kill one of the bird people in the towers, fuse their soul with emerald (treasure from the same place). There, now just spam.

Okay shitter.

Rank 9 yellow shards become white passive, but at what grade? At 1 by default or at the one you currently have?

Each potion costs 4k. That is nothing in endgame.

Where do you get crissaegrim or those rings? To make those passives permanent, did you need to get 10 shards of them or max upgrade them?

Whoa shit sword looks amazing now.

Why do people call it the crissaegrim when it's called the vorpal blade/sonic blade in game?
Was it renamed crissaegrim in a later game?

There was soem stuff in the tower that you couldn't get with just double jump. that was the first place I checked when i got invert. You're just dumb.

It's the same, the difference is that it's for all weapons. Be sure to still upgrade all the weapon expertise shards though, they become passives at rank 9

engame gold farm gets you hundreds of thousands within minutes, keep crying, scrub.

Why you want to use one of it ?

Use all instead

Thanks

The crissaegrim is dropped by the Schmoo (those little ghosts in the inverted library). What you got there is the lite version.

>Didnt know about shard dropping gold from destroying object
>Higher rank give higher chance and amount
>Exploiting
Go explore more, moron.

I'll try to farm those assassins then. I guess intense grinding is required if I want to get all the passives ranked up, not a fan but cant be helped.

It's not the same
Crissaegrim is the better version of it
The name was taken from Silmarillion, so they renamed it in later games to Valmanway just to be safe.

Oh I looked it up and the crissaegrim is a better version of the vorpal blade, I feel dumb.
Yup
I just need to get 196% map coverage now (currently at 192-193%) for the best ending.
I somehow missed the relic that lets you go underwater without taking damage and the sword familliar.

>2 hours
the fuck. Just mash attack and jump over him

Just stock up on potions and food. You want need anything afterwards ever again

train i.d. and the water squirt ability are obtuse but good game otherwise

Defeating OD gets you ALL the 21 books, this makes you super strong, but it's kinda pointless so late game.
I beat him using the strongest Whip I had and spamming the special attack, it comes out super fast and is spameable, and it's a guaranteed crit I think, you can do like 3 attacks in a row per second.

You only need to do it if you want to test how powerful you can become.

Where's the slot machine enemy? Must be some area I havent been into yet. Just opened the way to behind the fake moon.
Also whats that blue dash thing, where do you get that? And did she do those high jumps too?

Its the only dumb thing in the game.

lol fuck off, i dont care if you dont want to enjoy a good game without being ordered to

I just had way too hard time with the second Zangetsu fight so I figured I need things to be more powerful or rest of the game rolls me over. And I had no chance against the carpenter or IGA.

Zangetsu's second fight is the peak if you ask me. The rest are fairly easy.

How to beat zangetsu?

Oversexualize anime weebshit

>hi I'm Dominique, the Church sent me

Backstep was literally designed to be used against him.

near the place you fought Gebel, but i think the key to open it its by the path you just unlocked
the dash shard is also by that path and the high jump is crafted with a feather of the cow enemy from the oriental lab

It' s 10 year old Order of Ecclesia for consoles. Nothing worse, but also anothing better.

Jump over him and just chug potions

Don't reply to obvious bait.

Should I pirate this for Switch or PC? Is the graphical quality much different between the two? As long as the Switch can put out 1080p with some resemblance of Antialiasing I'd rather go for portable.

the only thing wrong with the visuals is the lighting. looks like stock lighting, no ambience

so the carpenter key, warhorse key and millionaire key had bosses
whats the deal with the celeste key?

>was excited for the Valkyrie outfit
>heard you can't change it's colour
Fug, is this true?

Before I spend time grinding 90k gold, do discount cards stack?

Are you gonna say what is the problem anytime soon?

Miriam is a little bland to look at. Also the music feels like lazy inverted Castlevania OSTs I've heard before. Also the protagonist seems to be a generic Shanoa with the same generic Albus betraying her.

I realize what the game is meant to be, but they got super lazy about some things. Also the enemies could be more interesting.

Yes. It looks great though

>Disliking something for its visuals is "arbitrary" now
lol

hit 1-2 times, then evade via backstep or slide

I'll look around then for the key and the dash shard, do you remember which enemy drops the shard? I honestly dont remember Gebel's place having areas like that but my memory is shit anyway. Do you need a recipe for the high jump?

Does anyone here primarily use kung fu shoes as a weapon?

It's just some big backer easter egg, if you sit on a chair after some time a ghost will appear. I remember hearing that either that girl or the cat in the picture passed away.

The game looks ugly because it's missing all the fucking shadows. What a waste

Shoes are kinda pointless because of Bunny Morph that boosts your attack and gives you a stronger kick. The problem is the mana I guess, but at some point you won't have mana problems anymore.

its not a normal drop, its an event you will find with a blue ninja

the recipe is unlocked as soon as you get double jump, the problem was getting to the oriental lab to find the enemy that drops the item

Encrypted Orchid, can be bought from Johannes with an 8bit coin you find by going left once you reach and jump into the moat, serves you well without further upgrades up until vampire countess Bloodless because it stunlocks enemies. The code in its description is not a bug, it's actually Hex code that can be decrypted with the password "orchid" to read "A very powerful lightsaber".

Alright, thanks. I need to find a good spot to farm those cow enemies.

Also, where to find augment luck or whatever? I assume its absolutely mandatory for a crit build.

Is it as easy to get lost in, and as empty, as Hollow Knight?

I liked the gameplay of Hollow Knight, but I didn't like the desolate feeling, together with getting lost all the time.

This game looks like it has more fun gameplay, but if it's as easy getting lost I'll pass.

Not the guy you replied to but i checked a video of it on youtube to see what the hype was all about and i saw a fight against a cat or some shit that looked straight out of a 2000 gif

the game is hideous, and i don't even care that much about graphics but holy shit there's a limit, that shit's just lazy

No I finished it because men finish things, it was a piece of shit from start to finish. Literally every other platformer I've played is better than this shit.

You will get lost. You have to explore and discover where to go.

You wont get lost even nearly as hard as in HK. Few moments might make you scratch your head but still nothing too bad.

Alright, guess I'll skip then and just get some other similar game then. Maybe I'll look up the new Mega Man. Thanks!

Remember all the shit with IntiCreates as well. They pushed out a bad demo (starting the 'bloodstained looks bad meme), and then fucked up MN9. Iga had to get rid of them, restart development with his own dev team, Wayforward, and 505. The version of RotN we got was effectively made in the space of one year.

This game actually has a functioning map

>X looks like a game on Y console!
I fucking hate when you fucking faggots says this because its almost never true. Play some older games and educate yourselves fucking zoomers.
Visuals dont matter in video games, the game itself does. Regardless the visuals are fine.

I just want to jam man. Also Im sad you dont get more transform shards

I think that's quite a fun idea.
You can also zoom in with the convex glasses

I like both games but defending Bloodstained at any cost is some real faggot shit.

Speaking of castle designs, why the fuck does it have completely different aesthetics in the cutscenes and distance than from the inside?
At least in a bunch of the other Igavanias the overall castle design vaguely consistent and features some vistas of the clocktower and such but here it doesn't even remotely tries to be.

Wrong series. It's just Castlevania in name not in mechanics or design. It's closer to old God of War and Devil May Cry than Castlevania.

Depends whether you preferred Castlevania on the PS1/PS2 or GBA/DS.

You're always lvl 1? is it even possible to finish the game like that?

user, Castlevania is a well known name outside of Japan but its always been niche, Konami only made a push with marketing with Lords of Shadows.

Lots of people have only played that, it doesn't help that Lords of Shadows is the easiest one to get pre PC Castlevania collection.

Starting over in Newgame+, should I move from normal to hard? Found the base game pretty fair for the most part. Only had a few deaths on the repeated bosses and the final boss.

What does hard do, just inflate damage/health, or do you get more drops?

Nah

Its fine you elitist

both ghost enemies drop ectoplasm

Hollow Knight

No one on Yea Forums was asking for 2.5D garbage. NO ONE.

Anyone have any comparisons between the PC and Switch versions? It'd be nice to see what the downgrades are exactly before deciding if portability is worth it.

The game sold really well user, don't know what you're complaining about. Pirates are always gonna steal shit when they can but the steam numbers alone show it did well, and those numbers don't include console or gog sales.

Go for Nightmare, is not that hard when you already have something better than the basic equipment.

All my trophy screenshots look amazing, the stills work with the lighting and give the whole look that stained glass smudge

>Hollow Knight
They have their own distinct style in both visuals and gameplay. Neither looks like shit and neither plays badly.
I like both of them and I think they've both set a new standard to metroidvania.

why did they decide to replace zombie, skeleton and bone pillar with black putty man, black putty man with bones and black putty thing around a barrel

Thanks you made me mad cause I did the same thing

This. Most bosses in cotm were awesome, and a couple of them didn't even get into rotn, but none of them feel as good

Does anyone have the full item list?

>They have their own distinct style in visuals
Yeah, Bloodstained's is "shit".

Chinks hate skeletons

the game is doing fine, with or without the help of Yea Forums

there isnt really anything to go until it releases in 2 days

>>there's a boss that stops time,and places a bunch of ice spikes around you, if you have your silver knight familiar, it will still be able to move and even block some of the ice spikes

and his name is O. D. now say his name backwards

but black putty man with bones has bones too

Nightmare isn't unlocked.

Type NIGHTMARE in the filename to unlock it earlier

Whatever. I'll keep enjoying both.

You can definitely make it if you time the double jump as an intelligent person, not as the low IQ doofus you are.

Pretty gross. There are some cute/funny ones though.

Took me 25 hours but I finally beat this game. Ended with a sweet whip that has different color effects.

Time to grind for that fabled shooter hat though. I wanna break shit on NG+

which hat was in and were i think i need that one. as for the ring it drops from the ghost bitches that curse you (I think)

>oh anons let me just pull this statement right out of my fucking ass and flail it around like I actually know what I'm talking about

It doesn't have secret tranny pride rooms (yet).

Is there any reason Iga can't put out a west-only bit of dlc that replaces blobs with skeletons? Same way some games have blood as dlc because German cucks.

>Time to grind for that fabled shooter hat though. I wanna break shit on NG+
That shit is fun as fuck.

What did you think of it user?

I think bloodstained visual is fine. The bad thing is that character doesnt stand out much considering they cel shaded the characters in realistic style areas.

This area is the definition of garbage game design.

Huh, why?

>which hat was in and were i think i need that one
wolf hood, drops from wolfmen
>as for the ring it drops from the ghost bitches that curse you
Nope, that's cursed ring, i have that.

>WAHOO PETRIFY WAHOO SPIKES EVERYWHERE WAHOOOO NO SAVE POINT WAHOOO YIPPEEE

Rather than complain why don't you adjust to deal with it? If you're swarmed, you use a protective shield-like shard, such as the portraits and loating head familar. You can also use directional beams that fire quickly to pop stoners because they get close.

Retard.

nigga the entire area loops back into itself and there are 2 (TWO) save points

I think you're just bad. I never died from spikes. Also, welcome to Castlevania's medusa. Hope you'll like it.

Is this your first castlevania?

What are you fellow pc master racers using to make the graphics of this game bearable? Because seriously this looks so fucking bad I'm tempted to just refund and pirate the Switch version if I have to look at graphics this bad. I can't justify using my PC for a game that looks as bad as a PSP game except for the bloom and shiny surfaces. Honestly, Rondo of Blood remake (Dracula X Chronicles) on the fucking PSP looked better than this.
