Why do people keep saying Bloodstained looks ugly? It looks, like ~okay~. Doesn’t look worse than Trine or any other comparable 2.5D game.
Some shit actually looks really good, like Vepar.

Right? Most of the environments look fine, some of them look actually good. The models also look fine during normal gameplay, but they look pretty iffy when you look at them up close.
Looks even better with the backer portraits out of the way.
The artstyle just isn't everyone's cup of tea, I guess. I thought it looked alright as well.
What's the maximum grade you can get on familiars? How do you raise the Silver Knight's grade?
what the fuck is going on? Why are we getting deleted?
Go back to where you belong.
The game does look fine, and I love it to bits, but you can't really argue the cutscenes.
You can get Silver Knight to grade 9 in NG+
Actually fuck off you mong.
How do I dodge her Hydro Pump attack? Two of them on Hard mode kill me.
>Do not talk about videogames on Yea Forums
hush nigger
>Why do people keep saying Bloodstained looks ugly?
Because some people just want to go through life angry and disappointed. No one knows why.
looks like a videogame to me. people conditioned today to want realistic gritty graphics.
Grade 9 is max on everything
Silver knights only appear in the special green orb hidden secret things, so NG+
The only things that look ugly are character and enemy models when you zoom in on them. Why they decided to have 3d models during dialogues instead of artwork is beyond me. Everything else in the game looks absolutely alright. Some of the effects even look great
It looks like a PSP game, cope-kun.
That's part of the problem. People here don't want video games, they want cinematic experiences.
The problem is that it has shit art direction. Plenty of games have done lower quality textures or 2.5D before and still look really great
Shit art direction looks shit regardless of tech. Look at GTA4 for example, or any modern shooter with its lens flare and slimy looking everything
Does anyone know where these songs play in game? Are they unused?
For all the money they got the game looks meh. Still setting the brightness to cero makes the game looks way better
It looks okay to me, maybe a bit oversaturated in a lot of areas, but nothing bad beyond that. I get why some people might find it ugly, but you know anyone who says it looks like a ps1 or ps2 game never actually played games on those consoles.
>No physic on this boss hair
>But her boobs bounce like crazy
Based Iga.
Two recommendations for improving the game's look:
Drop brightness by 1-2 points.
Install the mod to replace backer portraits with Kojima artwork:
The hair thing hasn't been patched yet?
>Why are we getting deleted?
Because you niggers have multiple threads up that have no specific purpose
t. never played a psp game
I'm thinking some modder could probably fix it.
Oh shit, that's right. The wacky ass hair mechanics irk me to no end, I ended up only wearing short hair or the braid
>Install the mod to replace backer portraits with Kojima artwork:
Fucking awesome, I was waiting for someone to do a mod of this
Thanks for the link user
That genuinely looks as good as Shitstained
oh no, people talking about video games on a video game board! how dare they!
>swap the textures
>make no effort to make it look anything like an actual portrait painted on canvas
Looks like trash. Could be good with just a little more effort.
>"He sickens me."
Yeah man, why would we want to have a thread up to have discussion about a game that came out last week?
We should really only be allowed to post about it if we have something very specific to say.
Is there a mod to get rid of the glowing eyes thing yet. It's so damn bright
>low poly
>dithering
>tiling textures
>flat lighting
>no normals/specular
genuinely blind
Nah, the shit art direction is a minor part of why it looks like shit.
The two big hitters that make this game look like garbage are the obvious assets that were bought from somewhere else and don't fit the game and the horrendous lighting system that looks like it was designed by an amateur.
There are often assets that don't fit with each other in the exact same area. And this is before we even take into account the godawful backer bullshit that stands out as a sore thumb even further in a game that is already filled with this.
It's truly astonishing that they had 5 million dollars and this is what the end result ended up being. 2.5D was a huge mistake.
>CUM STEAL
You...know Kojima works with oil on canvas, right? That's what she does. That's her whole style.
Moreover, he actually went through the effort of upscaling where needed and adding a sepia filter. I'm not sure what you're looking for.
>B-B-BUT THE OTHERS
Just post in the 1 thread up and when it dies, make a new one, after a month go to /vg/, you fucking reddit tourists.
This is how it was for ages, you newfagging niggers.
How the fuck is this a /vg/ game
There’s no online shit or anything, no one’s jacking off each other’s OCs. Is this supposed to be a Smash/Eceleb-only board now?
i mean, you could argue that dracula x looked better and it was a fucking psp game. Unless you get impresses by some stock UE fx.
I'm actually more insulted that they shoved in that obnoxiously-overused Shovel Knight into this game than I am the backer portraits.
>goes straight to her pussy
I bet Aradia ok'd this
Wow, this really looks like shit.
Pure white doesn't work, it should have a little bit of a yellowish tint
Yeah the cutscenes are bad, Miriam’s main run animation is bad, but on the whole the game looks fine. Seems like there’s this idea that the whole game is unforgivably hideous and I just don’t see it.
>train pass
>aqua stream
>aegis armor

Shit user, my bad. I confused it with another mod that actually was more like I described. Made the portraits look like printed posters.
That's literally what the first thread that got removed was. It was at 260 posts and was deleted for no fucking reason.
We try to keep a single containment thread and it gets removed as a general, then make a replacement thread and it gets autosaged.
Literally the Janitors are not letting the game be discussed on this forum. It's bullshit.
How hard is it to replace the portrait textures in a pak file? I've never used UE4 and want to try editing.
Only the ground is a hitbox, jump over it and hit her head
>Doesn’t look worse than Trine
Sure, but Trine came out 10 years ago you fucking retard
What the fuck? No, you couldn't. Dracula X looked great for a PSP game, but uncomparable to RotN, both on a technical and on an artistic level.
Why can't/don't the devs put more effort in to making sure the foreground elements align with the background? This shit looks straight up hasty.
I realize now I used literal too much but it's fucking stupid and I'm mad.
As Bloodstained fans that want a sequel, it is your duty to tell Iga that 2.5D looks like shit and that he needs to go full 2D for a sequel. The "muh budget" shit is a nonsensical excuse when you consider shit like Hollow Knight that looks a million times better with a hundredth of the kickstarter funds. Acting like drones and pretending this doesn't look bad does not benefit you.
Yeah but that game is very slow and doesn't have a lot of shit on screen
Looking fucking good.
Look at how the pillars sit on either side of this circle.
I did take a screenshot of the big cum steal when I came back later on
Well gee Miriam I guess you could expect me under the save room sofas
>It's ok when dmc and smashfags does it
Fuck off
Silver Knight, like boss souls, can only be maxed in NG+ in terms of grade.
That's why I'm just rolling with the Sword Familiar instead.
Trine had a less solid artistic direction and even worse character models. It also had pretty shitty particle effects
The problem is that the game has literally no art direction, I suppose it came down to having 4 different fucking teams working on the game with no centralized art direction department. Having so many different outsourced developing teams working on a single game is probably why the game is full of bugs too.
Foreground, midground, background all out of sync.
Ah, yeah, I saw that one and it was pretty awful. I think he only used CV works in his mod too. I liked that this modded picked stuff aside from just her CV work so it looked more interesting and organic.
>Don’t talk about games over a month old here!
Follow your eceleb god into the river
What does upgrading him does? Just damage?
the farther into the game you go the uglier the textures get
the final dungeon is just normie enemies upsized with photoshop
They almost nailed it in this room, yet still couldn't pull it off. I am posting this to show that they seem to are at least aware that symmetry is desirable in this kind of setting. Maybe they had to sacrifice alignment for the sake of the castle layout in some instances. I don't know. What I do know is that it looks like rushed. It's hard to appreciate the castle when the architecture looks like this. I find myself thinking about the inefficient development of the game instead of being immersed in the game.

>45 bucks for this
it feels like the aspect ratios are all over the place. the center one is too wide and the right one is too squished
So? What’s your point? No one was like “ugh god this game is so ugly”
Yes, grades in general just improve damage or amount of spawns of a spell.
For example the Medusa Head familiar gets more Medusa Heads on higher grades, but the Sword and Knight just get more damage, the Fairy heals for more.
Look at the circles on the floor and how they're not aligned properly with the rest of the space.
worth every cent
Hollow Knight has .05% of the amount of textures and animation that Bloodstained has. Bloodstained is the better looking game.
>Switch version
Kill yourself.
I mean Hollow Knight looks like Alien Hominid. Which is fine for it but not for Castlevania.
You know what's funny is that you just posted one of the screenshots I posted in one of the threads that got deleted
>Thinking IGA gives a shit when he said right out the gate that this is how he wanted it done.
Finally, here's an example of how these things are supposed to work, to prove that they know better.
But that's literally what's happening. The game's been out a week and we're making our own containment threads but the ten Smash threads stay up while the Bloodstained thread gets killed as a general.
Sometimes it's good to point out a double standard.
You legitimately would have to pay me money to get me to play this ugly shit. One of the best aspects of the older Castlevanias is how good they looked. There are dozens of Metroid-likes released in the past decade that look much better than this and I'm not done with all of those eihter.
That's straight up never gonna happen. The most you can hope for is that they use a better shader next time.
Those screens are clearly on low settings anyway.
I would have never noticed, honest. I was too busy playing the game than paying much attention to the assets.
You’re gonna have to further explain your autism to me
Nothing about the game's visuals looks at all cohesive. It almost looks like assets from different games were thrown together.
I think it's a problem of a lack of art direction
>not the double kramer version
4shame
Because they're retarded, or eight year olds with no frame of reference before the current bleeding edge.
Seamas block the attack. Don't kill them both, save one for a bit and stun it while crouching in the safe spot.
It's okay for things not to be perfectly symmetrical.
Also, I don't think you lined up your blood fountain screenshot correctly anyway. The fountain isn't quite centered.
The only thing shit-stained here is you.
People here don't evaluate in nuances, it's either utter shit or the best thing ever.
>It almost looks like assets from different games were thrown together.
That's literally what happened. They bought assets from the Unreal store and plastered them all over the game.
I regret not paying even more for extras when the kickstarter was alive.
its not a bug, its a feature
her hair is canonically alive because of the shard curse
I guarantee you that Trine cost a tenth of what they spend on shitstained. I don't even like Trine but at least it wasn't uninspired "metroidvania" garbage you nerds eat up with bad graphics as the cherry on top.
Any tips on beating Alfred on non-NG+ Hard mode? Fucker can kill me from over 1000+ HP to 0 in seconds in the second phase when he coats the entire arena with Slow orbs and petrification floor traps while also hurling endless icebergs at you. This is the only boss I've ran into that's gotten me so pissed I had to quit playing for awhile.
I wouldn't be surprised if the first one is going to be the "title screen" for the versus mode.
>flat lighting
Bloodstained has worse lighting than that picture and it's not even close.
it looks like trash you fucking shill
>this one Switch nigger complaining about visuals when he's playing a MASSIVELY downgraded version
TOP YEY
>haha guys I said SHITstained, get it, it's like the original name, but with part of the word replaced with "shit"!
I'm not even sure anymore if people are trolling or not.
This would be unimpressive on a ps2.
The game is fun, but ugly as shit.
>God: You've nothing more to say to me? You come but to complain unendingly? Is never aught right to your mind?
>Mephistopheles. No, Lord! All is still downright bad, I find.
Why isn't anything aligned properly? I wish people would stop forgiving stuff like this. It makes absolutely no sense that a huge, beautiful castle like this would exist and looked like it was built by literal chinks.
Whichever version you will play has the same lack of attention to detail and poor craftsmanship that the Switch version does.
Okay but I’m not saying you need to get down on your knees and lick Bloodstains boots, I’m saying it doesn’t look anything like a hideous travesty
>haha I have no counter so I will mock him
kys nerd
>He believes in shills
Iga wouldn't waste money paying people to go defend his shit-looking game on Yea Forums. The truth is they do it for free because they want to convince themselves the money the spent on this kickstarter was worth it. Sunk cost fallacy. Many such cases!
What? It doesn't and it isn't.

>Backed for $60 for physical PC copy and backer slipcase since neither will be available otherwise

I'm happy with the game and there probably won't be a ton of reasonably priced collectibles. Obviously my $60 also includes CotM and the IGA DLC so I feel like I came out ahead overall.
Nah
How is the system related to how ugly t is? Are you a zoomer?
>I’m saying it doesn’t look anything like a hideous travesty
we'll have to agree to disagree, I think it looks atrocious, especially when taking in to account development costs and time
Whatever helps you sleep as night Toddler.

Holy fucking shit, fuck off newfag.
How do you avoid Vepar's water spout attack on Hard Mode? Am I just retarded?
>It's okay for things not to be perfectly symmetrical.
It is ok, but not when things are supposed to be symmetrical. You think I didn't line up the blood fountain? Tell me where I should be standing to make the pillars directly behind the fountain line up properly. This is not how it should look, so stop apologizing for it.
>I pissed my own pants, there’s no counter for that, is there?
Good job I guess?
Leave one of the squids alive and hide behind it.
>How is the system related to how ugly t is?
>How does a game looking like it came from a two decades old hardware supposed to indicate it's ugly
But I see your point, there are a million PS2 games that look much better than this crap.
>Are you a zoomer?
no, i have eyes
Are you proud of being too stupid to understand?
there needs to be a mod that changes that line to "i need more cum"
Did you think Trine looked unacceptably hideous?
Jump
Do you get impresses by some stock photographs?
Are you proud of paying 60$ for a sub-720p, sub-30fps version of the game that also has massively downgraded visuals?
lewd outfit mods when

i want my cartoonvania with cuphead graphics
No actually, explain it to me. We’re not talking about the res and polycount here.
Sorry, dId I have to counter? I remember people praising Trine's visuals, but then I played it and found out that the only "good visuals" the game had is the fact that it had vivid colors in the era when everything was brown and bloom. That, and it dialed up the normals/specular so that everything looked shiny and tactile.
It also had mediocre music, voicework, general amount of content and overall polish, all things that also cost money.
>Stop double spacing
>Double spaces
Cute.
As you seem to be aware, adding a line break just improves readability. Reddit double-spacing is different and is used to make vertical lists because it doesn't pick up on a single line break between entries. So something like:
Item 1
Item 2
Needs to be put in as:
Item 1
Item 2
Otherwise it outputs as Item1Item2. I hope this helps you more accurately accuse someone of using another forum you don't approve of in the future.
>Did you think Trine looked unacceptably hideous?
upon release? No. It hasn't aged well but it looked pretty solid for the time it was released. It also cost far less to make and was probably made in a much shorter amount of time. Don't make me defend Trine anymore, it's boring as shit but if we're comparing indie developer competence then Trine's devs win by a mile
man this is one ugly game
the character model isn't that bad but the backgrounds, holy hell
That's funny how your standards are pathetically low, and you think it says something good about you. How much exactly does something need to look like a mongoloid threw it together for you to care?
What are your favorite weapons? I was hoping the swordwhip would be fun, but it's pretty underwhelming. I've been having fun with Rhava Velar, Oracle Blade, Valkyrie Sword, Eternal Blue, and Adrasteia. Adrasteia is nice when it works, but sometimes the bullets curve to hit something out of range instead of the thing right in front of me.
Miriam is decentish but there are a lot of ugly enemy models that clash with the differently ugly backgrounds.
Some panties would be a nice start. Don't we have a nude mod in the works already?
So it looked fine, and it looks about as good as this, so this looks fine.
I’m genuinely confused about what’s supposed to be so hideous about it. It’s a bit haphazard at worst.
it seems they dungoofed with invert mechanic, a lot of enemies and even bosses don't know how to deal with it
This game has no excuse for looking this ugly when it feels like we have a pretty Metroid-like coming out every 3 months, you cum-guzzling faggot.
Because having forced perspectives with different vanishing points to create contrast is common in 2.5d games you braindead, mouth breathing retard, even Rondo's remake does it.
It needs to actually look bad to me while I’m playing
>massively downgraded visuals
nigger please, it looks just fine (see pic), completely par for the course for a portable version
imagine still giving a shit about graphics in 20 fucking 19, how freaking autistic can you get?
Imagine being this much of a toddler that you think left is fine.
yeah, go back to an enemy room and grind until you're level 30 and have 20 high potions
its not hard user
It's nothing to be proud about or ashamed of. I bought it, because I wanted to see exactly how shitty the port was firsthand. I have the PS4 version waiting for me in another state to be played next week. So, why are you defending poor design while criticizing a poor porting job? Be consistent, you pea-brained fuck.
>So it looked fine, and it looks about as good as this, so this looks fine.
Bloodstained isn't trying to look like some less-retro 2009 creation, it only looks bad because the devs are incompetent faggots. Them having tons of money and still releasing an ugly unpolished product should make you go hmm. Is that simple enough? Or if nu-GoW looked comparable to the ps2 games would that just be acceptable and normal because the PS2 games looked good at the time?
Just don't play it docked?? It's completely adequate for a small screen.
What's the best layout for a 360 controller?
>We’re not talking about the res and polycount here.
But that's the only thing we could argue about. The art style and animation are undeniably trash.
Because it's not poor design and very classic contrast creating technique in 2.5D games you fucking zoomzoom tard.
Honestly? I do not know. I have been playing games since the NES age, so "graphics" only bother me if I cannot tell what is supposed be what, or if what I'm seeing is an enemy or decoration. I would have been fucking pissed if the shards were boring.
>Hahaha, how dare you care about visuals in your VIDEO-game?
based retard
Also, don't pretend people are arguing about number of polygons and resolutions or whatever. People are arguing about the overall visual look of the game. There are plenty of decades old games that look much better than this even with considerably inferior technology. Of course, when you clash Bloodstained with stuff like Ori, it just looks even more pathetic.
>RE2RE
>AC7
>Sekiro
>DMC5
This year is a great year, but RotN is the one I enjoyed the most out of those so far
Ok this game is not as bad as MN9 but lets face it, it is bad
>Why do people keep saying Bloodstained looks ugly?
Because it does. I know you dont have standards, but the game really looks like shit.
We do, and it looks pretty bad. Jugs the size of Miriam's desperately need jiggle physics to not look weird
It seems like it's a fine game overall, it just looks like garbage.
Vepar has gotten detailed tits. The rest are supposed to follow soon-ish.
I want to love the steam-powered great sword, but for some reason the DPS is worse charging it than just spamming attack
If I sit there and charge for two full seconds I should be rewarded for it
Fuck off, it's far from a bad game retard.
>zoom 3x
>man these backrounds look baaaaad
Because now all it takes is one fucking retard to yell something and then if it suits the narrative of this site it is set i stone forever no matter the facts. Look at DOA6 for a similar phenomenon.
This place is at it's all time low.
Is is possible to work in jiggle physics to Miriam? I know the Lilis have them.
Yeah none of those games are anything like this. Shit like Shantae is fine and all but it’s more Wonder Boy than Castlevania.
Y’all getting all butthurt like I even said it looks good
The devs admitted the switch port sucks how can you defend it still
Same. I loved DMC5 but it didn't have staying power. It was a great experience but there wasn't much content and the only drive to come back was just to perfect your skills -- which is fine and all but with so much out this year, it wasn't enough.
RotN I'll probably be playing for weeks and if the Zangetsu content is out soon, maybe longer still.
No it shouldn't.
I like how you're trying to play it off like it's a stylistic choice. I posted several screenshots that look bad while having nothing to do with "forced perspectives... to create contrast," you apologetic dipshit. If I'm generous, it's because they didn't have enough resources to fix it in time for launch, and they figured there'd be enough low class cocksuckers like you who would defend it anyway.
Nah it doesn’t make any sense to me. It’s not ugly enough to detract from the experience
It's 100% fine, not everything is about flashy graphics, I play games for their gameplay, dunno about you though.
lmao
not him but just wanted to say you argue like a jew. Total fucking retard in sheeps clothes
>tons of money
They really didn't have a lot for a game like this
Yeah, it should really be like a 2.5x modifier and/or guaranteed crit so that it hits like a truck when charged.
In that case both are well above PS2 level, so why even bring that up?
>there are a million PS2 games that look much better than this crap.

>NO NO NO BABBY WANTS TORTANIC REEEEEE
It's the original game upscaled. Bloodstained would look like shit even if you upscaled it to 16k, that's the point i'm trying to make.
but it doesn't just look ugly, it also looks unappealing, dumb, and boring. that ship boss looks DUMB. RETARDED. STUPID. how do you fuck up monster design? it's the easiest and most fun thing to excel at.
>it only looks bad
Do I need to read the rest of your post? Probably not.
I still don't get what you're trying to point out in the majority of your screenshots. It seems like you expect every area to have a spot in the center you can stand in where everything lines up symmetrically which isn't even how real architecture works more often than not.
I'll give you stuff like the circles on the floor in that one screenshot but standing in the center and not having archways on the background line up seems perfectly acceptable and to me gives depth and makes the castle look larger than it is.
Like, the Cathedral is a single large room so symmetry makes sense there, but the background of pillars and lanterns not lining up makes the areas feel separate, like there's more than we even get to see of the space.
Wow I fucking hate myself?!?!?
>find flying sword
>use flying sword till the game ends
Same shit with the drill shard
Did you come to him with no money, or does he not drain your gold if you kill him midway through that attack?
You expect me to believe that looks the way it does, as a stylistic choice, to look GOOD? You are a real idiot who likes to pretend he knows things he doesn't. Explain to me why those circular designs on the floor aren't centered within the space? You need to fuck off with that joke of an argument.
Lads?
nintentoads will eat shit and like it, they do daily and have been for years. This faggot is a prime example.
"metroidvania", the most cringe shit I've ever heard from the nerdfaggot game community which v is a part of along with reddit and neoera, is a "genre" devoid of creativity or intelligence. It appeals to retards and it is made by retards, they pump this shit out monthly for a reason
The 8 bit overlord is WAY WAY more of a grind. I had 115 LCK + Solomon's Ring and it still took me 20 (!) runs to get just ONE shard.
I like RE2 a tad more. But yeah Bloodstained is up there.
Are you arguing that it looks good retard-kun?
I don't have to play it off when the team literally took into consideration the perspective of Miriam in relation to the foreground/floor in the very first developer update, you stupid cunt.
Fuck no, this isn’t perfect but it’s about 85% exactly how I wanted it to be. It’s the 3rd Sorrow game.
This would look an order of magnitude better without the texture filtering blurring everything together.
silent hill 3, re4, sould calibur 3, sotc, dmc3, ffx...
Explain it to me, because it looks fine
thats like 3 mil after taxes, to employ a bunch of people for a few years
Apparently all the Night of Revenge comparisons weren't completely off-base after-all.
My position hasn’t changed from OP. Looks okay as shit.
Fighting bloodless early (pre-twin dragons) on new game hard with just a whip, no magic or healing was pretty damn fun. Picture related was my equipment.
Took a couple of tries but I honestly think she is one of the best bosses.
Giddy up!
Finished normal run earlier, what's different about hard and nightmare?
>I'll give you stuff like the circles on the floor
Ok, let's start with that then. But after that, tell me why the two huge pillars one foot behind that giant blood fountain aren't lined up properly. You think that is an intelligent way to make areas (it's the same area) feel separate? I'll settle for the circles for now, and then we can talk about everything else. By the way, obviously there are countless more examples of this that I can't be bothered to screenshot.
4free?
I just cast hellhound twice on my NG+ to get her medal lmao.
>upscaled
so it's not "the original game"
>Bloodstained would look like shit
RotN 4k screenshots look gorgeous, the details really pop out. SotC had obviously blurry textures and geometry, especially on eveyrhting that isn't a colossus, that was noticeable in 480p and only becomes more obvious when upscaling
>but it looks like shiiiit
that's not an argument, that's an opinion. you're not giving any arguments, only supplying evidence that proves the contrary to what you're claiming
Honestly my dude, I just don't care that much. I'm sorry it's ruining your experience but I'm having a blast regardless.
"Good" and "bad" is subjective. RotN looks good to me. If you claim it looks bad to you, supply some arguments as to why exactly.
That video has nothing to do with what I'm talking about, but nice try, you little queer.
You're using the sexy monsters mod, aren't you?
nah it's a pretty good game. visuals are pretty shit though.
I got tired of being an unstoppable killing machine after 100% normal. You become so fucking overpowered it's just not fun.
I'm a retard with this kind of thing, is there an easy method to supersample this game? I'm running at 1080P and thought doing like 2K or something might look nice.
I have a GTX 970, dunno if maybe I can do it through Control Pan.

how's the soundtrack in this game? yamane is the composer right? is it as good as sotn?
>710x533
it's from an emulator
it looks nice for the time, but nowhere near rotn
I thought the first boss had some hits of nipples in the vanilla game. Not actual nipple, just bumps as if from a skintight outfit
Nope, most fun game I played in over an year.
That's what the base game looks like.
It has some good moments and the atmosphere is preserved perfectly, but I don't remember any tracks that really stand out, like in SotN
there's a nude mod, but the body textures are mis-aligned and look weird
it's not amazing, but it's certainly not bad. like the garden area has some of my favorite music in the game because I think it's *very* reminiscent of SotN. overall it's not a super memorable soundtrack, but certainly not bad at all
Do not lewd Miriam!
and no body tattoos
It only works with the default skin color, but even then it doesn't look great
Pro-tip: you can press select in the bestiary to view enemy/boss models fullscreen. LT/RT zooms in/out.
Ship boss looks good as shit, you’re blind
>tattoos
Why do you keep calling them tattoos? These are crystals
I hate all the charge weapons. I had to stop using the second light whip as the game would make me miss attacks due to it holding a charge when I only tap the button. I also had a soft lock using it water as Miriam started charging the whip and wouldn't let go of the charge even when changing weapons. Only a port crystal got me out of it.
Damn, that body shape though. Once the textures are improved it'll be 11/10.
I knew about zoom/rotate, but didn't know about fullscreen. Thanks, user
How do you get the Durable Leather to craft that whip?
he said so many words, but not a single one of them was an objective criteria. don't reply to the troll
Oishiiiii~
could've sworn that it looks like the mod
I'm only about halfway through but I'd say it's 50-50 so far. Ship tutorial, entryway, dragon towers, garden and some purple area that I forgot the name of all have memorable tunes. The other 4-5 areas I've been to either have boring music or in some cases no music at all.
the other version has the crystals but the entire texture is misaligned so nothing is at right spot
Because fucking faggot ass jannies would rather have 16 fucking smash roster threads up, and that's when they're not pinning stupid eceleb shit for an entire fucking day.
Dropped by enemies. I think either lion guys in the entryway or the big guys in the towers.
I dunno about the mod but that screenshot is what it looks like in the base game
Man this game looks like some porn game tier shit
>bacon lace garter
>Miriam will never cook for you
It hurts
My only complaint about this game is that none of the axes are big or slow enough
Vepar is Thick.
WTF I love mods now
>so what
So it does not look better than Bloodstained when played on the original hardware, that's what.
Is the oriental lab pulling a Dark Souls 2? How is that on top of the castle?
>mods arrive
>shitposting stops
So it really was just a single autasm shitting up the entire thread by themselves. Really makes you thinkg
thats on a boat
play the game faggot
I am palying the game right now you faggot
When we are going to see some crazy ass TAS speedruns? Castlevania TAS are one of my favorite for all the crazy shit they pull

Because they're retarded.
>or any other comparable 2.5D game.
Have you seen the environment textures in Bloodstained? They're from the fucking asset store.
It’s a demon castle
It has a giant wing. And I don’t mean like a hospital wing, I mean like flap flap.
It doesn’t have to make any sense
What’s your point
castlevania invented nonsensical maps
First castlevania?
Unironically looks like a PS3 game. Nothing wrong with that but the game doesn't look visually appealing at all.
it has a general?
I've been browsing Yea Forums for no reason for the past 3 days?
so how do you not know the scene is taking place on a boat?
>but the body textures are mis-aligned and look weird
So, just like the base game? How poetic of them.
>I play games for their gameplay
>but I'll bitch and moan about this VISUAL thing which has no effect on gameplay at all!
Jump off a fucking bridge
It's not even the original one. The different mods use different bodies ripped from different places, because it's made by chinks and chink mods are always ripped. Don't think Miriams original body model has a nude version, only clothed
>woman wearing nothing but boots
Sometimes I feel like Yea Forums is overly negative and then I check the official forums for a new game and realize that nah, those people are the most whiney little bitches imaginable and that Yea Forums is pretty reasonable by comparison
>They're from the fucking asset store.
Yeah, the environments just look jank, cheap, and awful for that reason. The game is under-budget, rushed, and they had no clue how to use UE4.
just imagine if BS looked like Trine 4 but with a more appropriate aesettic (making it darker and moodier)? It'd be 10/10.
Instead Jankstained: Ritual of the Rushjob is a 7/10. Worth buying and hoping the sequel is better.
that looks beautiful for a bunch of stolen assets
>don't play the dogshit version
>get gameplay and graphics
There are plenty of good looking PS3 games though
I FUCKING WISH PORN GAMES HAD THIS LEVEL OF QUALITY.
Fuck you. You have reminded me how eroge has gone in decline for the past 2 decades. And if you suggest wegs, then go fuck yourself.
Not him but I think you misread something
at least they do something faggot
what's your pretext for not modding her yourself?
So I beat the all optional bosses and got 99% of the map explored, is there any post-game stuff or should I just do NG+ for grinding?
>no degenerate tattoos
best mod
>Either don't play Bloodstained at all or play the N64-tier Switch port
I really need to upgrade this piece of shit computer already
is this supposed to be impressive?
I wish Bloodstained was pixel art...
God can you imagine a porn game with the number of options/abilites/monsters Bloodstained has
Without some shit chibi aesthetic
Porn Castlevania is like my dream game
Where can you find this? loverslab?

Am I supposed to enjoy losing my time?
The animation is stiff, the shaders make it look like everything is made of plastic, the hud elements all look like they're straight out of a flash game, the environments are bland and all of the furnishings are strewn about haphazardly.
YEET
I will once it gets pregnancy.
I really think a shard-like system for pregnancy would be great. Gives you incentive to collect 'em all.
mommy there's no checkpoints wahhhh

kek
i like how in this trailer Igarashi purposefully misunderstood the complaints and made it seem like the backers only wanted different shaders and more saturated colors
the absolute state of shills
Should have saved, bro.
Either git gud or stop being a retard that doesn't save
Are you retarded?
You're supposed to git gud, and if you are not gud then save at every opportunity you have instead of being an idiot.

This makes the penis become the big penis. It's like two of my favorite things in one
GOR is a retarded and counter intuitive implementation of porn in a video game.
Well at least I didn't pay for the game lol.
Not even a 10/10 hot chick body would make egoraptor likeable.
They did make it look a little better, but didn't address the main issues. Because likely they lacked the talent and time to fix it.
Just making the game darker would fix a lot, as it'd hide a lot of the flaws in the background.
And the game is an over-saturated technocolor mess. It's so bright at times.
That bruised little ego of yours is cute to behold.
Big fucking surprise that a pirate faggot doesn't actually know how to play a single fucking video game.
You don't have to gameover to get raped, nearly get knocked over and wait for them to walk over to you.
hey not my fault, I loved playing rogue legacy to 100%, and there every death didn't mean losing time (unless you trying to do a 1st generation run.
)
is this supposed to make the game look better
fucking fortnite zoomer summer modders
The Chink mod is getting better, check LoversLab
That's still purposely playing bad and losing in order to achieve the thing you're playing for in the first place, and you literally have to die to see the game over porn. The porn needs to be in line with the objectives of the game, which is winning.
Is there any porn game where raping monstergirls and then killing them is a thing?
These porn games are so counter intuitive, you have to lose to get a good scene.
Wish there was something like doom where if they are low health you can just rape the monster girl and then decapitate them for invincibility frames and something like more HP/MP/gold.
>But after that, tell me why the two huge pillars one foot behind that giant blood fountain aren't lined up properly.
In a word, parallax. It explains most of what you're complaining about. I'm willing to bet that if you opened the blood fountain up in a proper 3d application, everything would line up.
rogue legacy was pissbaby easy, no wonder you can't play a real game
So, what others Castlevania metroidvanias i should play if Bloodstained was my first one ? The only Castevania i played is Bloodlines on SegaMegaDrive console emulator, heh.
>jump into spike bed to pick up a chair fragment
>dullahead petrifies me
>realize I didn't save after beating Bloodless and cooking a bunch of food
I deserve to suffer.
>Porn Castlevania is like my dream game
Nobody tell him about Midnight Castle Succubus.
Circle of Moon, Aria of Sorrow, Dawn of Sorrow, Portrait of Ruin and Order of Ecclesia
Symphony of the Night, and all of the Gameboy Advance ones.
Is Rogue Legacy fun ?
Reducing the saturation is step 1.
The fuck is wrong with you? Why would you ever want to do that?
Monstergirls are for loving and hand holding.
>New patch(1.03) came out today
>Heard it made the game worse performancewise such as stuttering and brief pauses
Dammit.
Start with Rondo. Then Symphony, then Aria, then Portrait, then Order.
>Switch
I don't see a problem with it, metroidvanias were always about the gameplay and not graphics.
Sell me on why the Switch version unplayable if visuals and being nazi about the frame rate are the only excuses. Keep in mind I will be getting it tomorrow for the Switch if you fail.
That was 1.02. 1.03 is nothing but fixing typos in the text.
Portrait of Ruin is connected to Bloodlines
Yeah sure, then why do you get a game over in most hentai games after the monster girls make you cum?
Is there a way to fix the crackling audio or am i bound to have shitty performance issues like that because of my simple laptop? Game crashed too once
DoS is substantially better than PoR.
Why does your cum have pee in it user
>DoS is substantially better than PoR.
Dawn has a lot of technical improvements over Aria, but overall the game is a step backwards. It even has an uninspired "here we go again" plot.
Portrait is legitimately one of the best of the series, with huge amounts of customization, huge areas, and a great dual character mechanic.
I'm tempted to do a Charlotto playthrough actually.
One of the games is alright then they started getting lazy as fuck.
There is more? I only played Succubus and the Six spells
Yeah, this one is a combination of Castlevania 1, 2, and 3.
What level should I be against Bloodless? I'm only 28 and using invisible sword.
Do I have to play the first game?
Level 1
Circle of the Moon is better than any of those.
>Trine
>Mediocre music
Them's fighting words, pal
Beat me to it
It's a non-canon spinoff but you should play it because it's actually well done.
Some of the boss fights are better than in Rotn
>Portrait is legitimately one of the best of the series
lmao it's worse than everything except Harmony of Dissonance
Thanks bros for suggestions, i'l play them all.
Nice to see they have their priorities straight.
>Circle of the Moon is better than any of those.
Eh... not really. It's an okay game. But it's skippable. I've never replayed it. It's a bit basic and lacks polish. Aria is like another level of great compared to it.
dissonance is the best gba game, portrait was the best ds game
portrait is too god damn easy though, but mane it controls fine like wine and has the least obtrusive gimmicks
Fuck me, it really does look like shit
A frend gave me a code and never touched the game, even if he recommended it a lot to me.
I felt kinda bad when I told him I didn't played it in a year after he gave it to me.
Why do you obnoxious mouthbreathers keep trying to push this narrative? The game came out and everyone except you can admit it's a fucking great game, it just looks ugly with the 2.5D.
framerate DIRECTLY effects the gameplay
>all those UE4 assets
Aria is too easy and forgettable. All the memorable shit was in Dawn.
Fucking yikes. They're the worst on their respective platforms by far.
Only if you're a disgusting casual.
oof what a neutral and rare take am i supposed to be offended
>Aria is too easy and forgettable. All the memorable shit was in Dawn.
Aria has 10 times better pacing and level design. It's jsut the perfect system.
I spy with my little eye an inverted sea of magma.
this shit game looks like it was done in rpgmaker 2000
Aria is too fucking short. By the time you start getting into the fun stuff, the game's almost over.
An 8 hour game is fine, especially for the GBA.
Okay tattoos are removable now.
Anybody remove the fucking bloomers please and put something more interesting. Or nothing.
Why would you be offended
Nah. The castle was less interesting. Aria is better to replay because no gay seal bullshit but it's still not as memorable.
Four hours, with 100% soul hunting.
"durr the OST is bad"
>Entrance theme
>Boat theme
>Twin Dragon Tower theme
>Gebel theme
>Forbidden Waterway theme
>Volcano Area theme
Shut the fuck up.
It's not the best but it's still good, better than PoR's 95% forgettable tracks.
The only genuinely good song in that game is Invitation of a Crazed Moon.
I am sorry you ruined your body with something that will look dated and bore you when you are 60.
True but Aria isn't 8 hours long.
Yeah, Fractured was more about the abnormal feeling of the surroundings and enemies than the quality of the assets.
>dicksucking this hard
fuck off. There are many, many things to praise in Bloodstained but the artstyle is certainly not one of them. Especially shitting on fucking Trine and Trine 2 which is a downright insult.
The environments and character designs of Bloodstained are MN9 tier but at least thankfully, the comparisons I can make to MN9 end there
Did you miss the part where he drained my gold halfway through?
I'm assuming the other 5% are the CV remixes and the Sisters' battle theme.
>Start using pad instead of stick
>Game becomes easy mode
fuck this shit.
PoR was ass in general.
Who names their kid Gebel.
Lebeg
I laughed
I didn’t praise it, dipshit
Why do y’all only function in binary
>Four hours, with 100% soul hunting.
No way. I logged like 8 hours on my first play through. I managed 6 on my last.

How fucked is the Switch version?
Yeah, but it breaks the hitbox you have godmode and can't pick up items on the v4 version.
HERE I FIXED IT
THANK ME LATER IGA
It's inconsistent. In some parts it looks passable, in other parts it looks like a bad joke.
The enemies seem totally random as well, some look like Castlevania, others look like Deviantart, and some of the characters are presented in an entirely different artstyle than others.
It looks very rough and unpolished.
If she needs cum, I know a tutor she can hire.
Yes, but you need a very specific sword to do it. You'll know when you get it.
On hard, feel like I am starting to get overgeared/levelled for bosses, AP rounds dealt 100 damage each to Bloodless, and shards like Flying Daggers are incredibly strong.
It's just console warriror fags crying about some graphical downgrades you expect and the fact the game is locked at 30fps.
If you want to get the Switch version, get it.
blue is superior
I want something that adds a shiny normal map to the crystals on her skin. Would make it look worlds better.
So does it actually feel good to play or does it have the awful, generic UE physics?
My eyes bleed, thanks.
I hope the next game has a spooky theater area like the one from Lament of Innocence.
Fucking Chink modders, baka
Can't even get UVs right, or make their own mesh.
Is it possible to impregnate her without dying horribly?
kramer mod when
Hnng I just want this fucking costume, with slim panties and shorter skirt. Fuck.
that's i paid money fuck you for this scam behavior
Nope. You're pretty much guaranteed to always end up as a shriveled husk.
give it a try and let me know
press F to pay respects
It's possible. However Iam no expert on Unreal or any engine for that matter, but maybe they are not real physics, just simulated into the animation.
So I guess this means we were Bloodstained® Ritual of the Moon™ all along
>blue
blueberryjuiceless?
kek, the one with the best looking one never even released his mod, he straight up gave up on it once he saw how much work was involved
Oh my god, now I want to replace the backer faces with porn.
Seamas block the hydro Pump, hope you don't have 2 Dulla head familiars, because one almost kills the Seamas.
It looks worse than Trine, and I hate Trine and love bloodstained.
Bloodstained cant decide if it wants to look realistic or cell shaded, there is a lot of clash between the background and other objects, the areas also look so eh.. they need more work, the enemy models don't appear refined, and overall it lacks polish. Despite it's flaws, it's a fantastic game.
This is a correct answer.
Give it a try, I thought it might have been bad but it turned out to be great and it has replay value.
It's funny because the game didn't even need to be downgraded, this game is NOT demanding at all. The port was given to a separate studio and is completely unsalvegable despite what they would have you believe on their twitter.
I ran it on a PC with no gpu user
Dont try to find logic to a videogame remmenber is castle FROM HELL in fact it would be better if was more chaotic you know like HELL supposed to be
i will replace them with modern campbell soup art
I wonder how far you can get before you have to do twin dragons. Currently at the desert.
I found a spike hallway.
Do I get to turn into a bat soon?
rumor has it that the switch port is a vita port
kek
Okay isn’t good. I’m aware fans will love it anyway but everyone lives in an echo chamber these days. The graphics being okay is a legitimate criticism.
>Some panties would be a nice start.
This, getting rid of those boring shorts she wears should be a top priority for modders.
Other than that default Miriam actually looks pretty nice. Plenty of breast, back and thigh.
What game user, unholy sanctuary? Or that other one tower of succubus?
is that the reason why spaniards are shit at architecture and modern plumbing?
they're trying to imitate hell?
During deveopment, Iga and others talked like they had never started the Switch port or had picked up the damn thing before.
The Switch port being a resalvaged vita port makes some sense.
Pretty sure he's talking about Cumstained: Night of Revenge.
The Unholy series has no pregnancy, and I don't think the Libraheart games have it either.
>La Sagrada Familia
Ah yes, the very pinnacle of spanish architecture. Will they ever finish the damn thing, already?
Well, both of the Vita and the Switch are ARM machines, so it checks.
Oh that one. I didn't try because of the crappy animations.
The 8bit ones are better.Grimhelm latest one also seemed metroidvania. Probably will never finish it.
Dude, I don't know if you're aware of this but this is made by like 15 people. Nobody sane goes into a Symphony of the Night rerun made by a tiny indie studio expecting it to blow anybody's mind visually. As long as it doesn't look outright ugly like Mighty Number 9 did, that's enough. That's not why we're here.
Yeah it doesn't have any motion interpretation so if you're using a stick you've got to nail your command inputs or else they won't register correctly. All modern fighting games just take your inputs as suggestions and guess as to what you were actually trying to pull off. So if you want to do all those special moves d-pad is certainly the way to go.
How do I open chests underwater?
its so unfinished though and there aren't even any translations
Of course not, imagine being a chink and being anything other than a code monkey.
Get the shard to be able to walk underwater first.

Version without the black bar over her chest in the right side where?
>Swapping to Spiral Sword mid-swing maintains damage and adds multi-hit
Cool
I was kinda surprised that boss just had exposed tits.
Unless he grinded a shard or two in that time.
Night of revenge will feature pregnancy eventually, as you posted she already has a pregnant belly and the menus have a pregnancy counter implying you can have numerous pregnancies however the actual impregnation isn't implemented yet. Word is the upcoming .27 will have the first implementation of the impregnation system so fingers-crossed.
Yeah but to be fair I was a backer and I backed this back when I was still interested and a bit younger now I am not interested in these games and I don’t know I expected better.
My favourite castlevania was harmony of despair because I love boss rush games that are multiplayer. I used to play harmony of despair on Xbox with my friend from across the pond in Yankee land back in my last year of high school. I don’t know I guess I was looking for that kind of feel I guess. I was happier then. But yeah you are right I only have myself to blame sorry if I came off as a douche.
You gotta get the ability that allows you to drown.
Never. Not the same but even more cool

Hopefully she can be impregnated by the nuns.
is there a replace the music with castlevania tunes mod?
heh, neat.
What's that laser from?

>looks poor, plays great
Can we make this a new trend? Please?
It'd be the red creatures infesting the nuns if anything, I don't think the nuns themselves can contribute to your semen ml counter.
Is Mirror of Fate worth grabbing on the steam sale? It's only £2.50
You're fixating on some aspects of the game and letting that ruin the entire experience for you. I wouldn't exactly call that lack of flexibility intelligence user.
Immaculate conception!
Short answer: No.
Long answer: You will equip something to ignore them.
What really bothers me and made me not even try it is the abysmal animations.
Why is that porn game always assosiated with this game? Where they made by same dev?
What if it's the red creature's semen milked out, and then inserted by, the nun's hand?
I'm having the same issue. It's hard to balance progression with my urge to collect and upgrade everything. I don't even know what's going on in most fights since I'm covering the screen with dragon and robot punches.
Someone told me that the bunny suit is OP. How true is this? I might have to look in the archives because I forgot what they said about it
Been finding some weapon swap glitches like that. Buffering Force Blast with a sword and switching to an elemental weapon, regardless of type, will activate the element effect.
Yeah, Igarashi wanted to lewd Miriam and generate fanart much like how 2B got tons of fanart, so he gave Miriam a sister/girlfriend for everyone to lewd.
What do you guys think of this Reshade? I'd like to do my own but I'm terrible at it.
Don't insult Trine like that you wretch
See
Bumping up saturation to 200% is not an improvement.
It scales off INT so it's insanely powerful.
How do you beat Naruto in the race?
I equipped the speed belt and tried to backdash as much as possible and he still smokes my ass
I just used the ray thing to teleport forward constantly.
It should be better in Nightmare mode, but I would love if post Valac bosses got scaled HP so being too prepared isn't as much of an issue
I know it looks like shit, but I'm trying to get the game to look a little better, any hints? I usually just copy over an old reshade from an AC game and just fuck with the sliders until I like it.
thanks user, is there anything else to add to this to make it even more OP?

Usually when you get double jump, you go back to the Towers of the Twin Dragons.
I know, but I wanted to see how far I could get without going there. For instance you can fight bloodless as soon as you get double jump by bouncing on the torches in this picture.
have you actually played any of those games you just named
get your fucking eyes checked, holy shit
