Isn't Iga just like Inafune?

The difference is just that he gave you waifus and Castelvania is so dull you can't fuck it up even if you tried.

Anyone know where Dimension shift is?

bait

endgame shit

bloodstained more like plagiavania

2nd to last boss fight, you won't miss it

I love how utterly broken the Time Stop is and how it operates on JoJo logic, complete with the same clock sound as JoJo, inverted colors and the fact all projectiles freeze in mid air only after getting some distance from you.

Theme for the webm.

How do you follow everything happening on-screen with multiple familiars floating around? It gets confusing really fast. I'm considering not using them at all even if they're ridiculously useful.

Mandatory main story boss in the absolute last area of the castle, it's Gremory's shard.

>multiple familiars
Come again?

I feel sorry for the comic author. It looks like they tried.

Ok. I just got Zangetsu's katana. I go to the area with the red moon now right? I went by it before, but it changed to normal moon for some reason.

Not quite, if you go there you'll see that it's still gone.
It's SotN Shaft 2.0 situation, figure it out yourself from now.

Not even worth a (You).

How about you explore all those underwater parts you ignored seeing as their walls aren't mapped, faggot.

I don't understand. I had 99.50% map and I checked every single room again and the only room left was a boss room so I finally bit the bullet and went in but it turns out it was the final boss and now I'm staring at the credits. What the fuck?

I did. That's all explored. It just fucks up like that sometimes.

You clearly didn't check well enough.

Big difference is Iga's kickstarter ended up making a game that people are enjoying, which is the only thing that matters

Probably talking about the Dullahammers, as there are 5 of them when max ranked.

When your first going at OD and he's time stopping you, you can still dimension shift

But that game is going to be a 2D dark souls, not metroidvania

That still counts as one familiar.
Also the JoJo Stand familiar is objectively better for DPS.
The Dullahammers ability to clear rooms is garbage compared to just using Void Ray or Riga Storeama.

Dark Souls is literally a 3D Metroidvania in terms of level design.

>That still counts as one familiar.
Yeah, but there's 5 of them on screen, that's the point.
Nice trips btw.

Why did this game not improve on SOTN in the slightest?

Will there EVER be a proper SOTN 2? I don't think so.

Can you refight him somehow? He's the only boss The 3 secret bosses (zombie Trevor Belmont, Carpenter and Slot Machine Mimic) and Dominique/Bael are refightable at any time, the other normal bosses are refightable through Boss Rush, but I don't see any way to refight O.D.

Only the first one, unfortunately

>there are now two ways you have to grind every ability
what were they thinking?

>Why did this game not improve on SOTN in the slightest?
The castle and the gameplay are better though.

Show me where I said "Dark Souls series" or "Dark Souls 2 and/or 3".

Some dude is remaking it and giving it more DMC-like combat

>shortcuts
Every time I use one of those my weapon gets unequipped even though the shortcut has a weapon set.

I like how DS managed to pull it off without needing a map. I'd love to see a 2D metroidvania with level design so good you don't need a map.

The differences are negligible.

Source?

I have literally everything 9/9 out of the ones that can be farmed for Grades.
The ones that don't have farmable grades are still Ranked 9.
Generally 100% the shit out of the game on Hard and just waiting for Chadgetsu DLC now.
Nightmare is too broken for clean playthrough and on NG+ it's just as much of a joke as Hard currently is for me.

>transported the entirety of Paris to Spain
Did the artist of this mistake a simple joke at an NPC's expense for developer incompetence?

>O.D is actually Alucard
>He just decided to obtain book autism and change his hairstyle

Tell me about IGA
Why does he wear the hat?

Fuck. That wasn't meant to be a reply

Show me where he said you said any of that

Doesn't seem like her legs could support the weight of her thighs.

He's got the kind of attitude Kojimbo has. That's not a good trait, it's probably why he got kicked out of Konami.

Im happy he's happy tho because I'm a fan and he's not as much of a douche as Kojimbo

>The differences are negligible.
Shitload more weapon types (all weapons have the same animation in SotN and only differ in sprite and hitbox) ergo improvement.
AoS/DoS souls that SotN never had ergo improvement.
SotN Familiars on steroids + new familiars. ergo improvement.
Directional souls that not even AoS/DoS had ergo improvement.
Ability to convert passives into permanent upgrades which AoS/DoS never had ergo improvement.
Biggest castle without resorting to Mirror/Inverted bullshit like SotN, HoD and PoR did ergo improvement.
Music literally on par with SotN, Yamane's absolute best since SotN so not a downgrade.
It's overall an improvement.

just listen to the BGM. you can hear it

He literally left Konami on his own because they kept cutting budgets for each next Castlevania game in half compared to last time and then they handed Castlevania over to Kojimbo and his spics so IGA ragequit.

no one cares autist

Thanks for proving my point ;)

I care.

None of this is an improvement, it's just more bloat and some gimmick add-ons. You don't know what improvement means.

>Music literally on par with SotN
And this one is just wrong.

>its just gimmicks and bloat
Contrarian get ye gone

So, the carpenter and millionaire key make sense but why do I need a "Warhorse" key for the undead not-Simon Belmont battle?

I found it. It was Celeste's Room and the Room next to it that I was missing. And one other Room.

It's true though. None of Iga's games improved on SOTN.

Speaking of belmonts, why a whip? I know lament of innocence explained why story wise, but what was the real life reasoning back during the nes days? Was there a kinky Konami employee? An Indiana Jones fan? What?

youtube.com/watch?v=5yTbAJUs2Dk

>not-Simon
It's Trevor, wears same armor and bandana as Trevor.

The director of the first game was an Indiana Jones fan, yes. But I think there was a mechanical reason for it too.

was anyone else expecting a product 5x more impressive? Overall I have to say the games a disappointment with how much kickstarter money and hype it received. The castle design is boring and small. You can beat the whole game in 2-3 sittings and uninstall lol.

Not with that budget.

>DMC like combat
lol someone should remake it to give it more Castlevania like combat, not the complete opposite.

DMC is such a piece of fucking shit series, Jesus. Not even the best of its kind.

DMC is literally the best in it's genre.
Nothing else comes close.

>DMC is such a piece of fucking shit series
Kill yourself.

No frickin way, op

Just hoping that we don’t find out we’ve been catering to the fetish of some pervy Konami employee in the next 5-10 years.

The one thing I got dissapointed by is how linear the game is. You can't really get dissapointed by things like models and graphics because you get to see them in trailers / the moment you boot the game, but the more I played the more I think they missed the mark with the exploration aspect of the game. It's always play one area > get thing > Go to another one. You have no choice in which one you go first.

I just started playing pretty much blind last night and I just beat chad-getsu. Have I missed anything by not going through the "forbidden underground path" or whatever was by the castle gate and not doing the garden of silence because it had that blocked off path?

Go your own way, friend.

Ninja Gaiden was better back then.

Skip forward to the next gen, DMC4 doesn't change shit, then Bayonetta comes out and it's suddenly the better game.

Skip forward to this gen DMCV comes out and doesn't change shit, Sekiro comes out in the same month and it's rewarded as the better hack n slash of the year.

DMC is never the best of its genre.

I don't think you realize how much making games costs.

Thank you for typing this. I can fully ignore everything you have said thus far without worry.

>wubadubaduba mash X for auto combo
Go fuck yourself that's not a good combat system.

In Bayonetta your character can actually move around and that makes the game fun.

By who? Game Journos?
The fact is DMCV is still being played because it's combat is that good. Many people stopped playing Sekiro after they beat it because NG+ is barren and that game itself doesnt offer enough combat depth to warrent a second playthrough

I have a fair amount of respect for IGA. He was always pretty down to earth while working for Konami and was honest about shit in interviews. I don't remember him ever claiming that he made Castlevania either. I didn't back Bloodstained but I felt like he was more decent then Inafune about a lot of stuff.

I do have some mixed opinions on some of the timeline shenanigans with the Castlevania timeline, but it is relatively minor.

My favorite metroidvania thats still castlevania got to be circle of the moon. Its difficulty is just right. The optional gauntlet is also the most challenging thing to date in metroidvania.

>Bayonetta comes out and it's suddenly the better game.
Ahahaha, oh wow.
>He doesn't even know how to move on DMC

This somehow makes me wish we had more serious combatant dullahans in endgame as an elite extension of Dullahammers.

Only real issue for me was how there was a lot of stuff that struck me as odd or peculiar like

What was up with that abrupt cinematic before the train that felt like part of it were missing?
What was up with that x/400 counter during the train?
What is that thing behind the couch in the save rooms and loading screen?
Why does the castle exterior look absolutely nothing like the areas you traverse?

there's far better combo videos

How come people who don't like DMC are always such braindead retards?

That enemy you just killed I can do in 1/4th the time without time shift.

No, all of Iga's games after SOTN have been inferior retreads, hence why he immediately went to handheld

Here
youtu.be/z9ebzDdYd5g

It's like a fucking next gen game next to DMC4.
Am I? I played both games. Couldn't even finish DMC4 due to how boring it was. Every video shown so far is just combos in tge air, you guys want this for Bloodstained? What's the point of combos in Castlevania games? You know they tried that in Morros of Fate and Lord of the Shadows didn't you?

All of this looks neat, but will he be making a new game with a recoloured Alucard or what?
Since this smells like a huge C&D incoming, especially since he's doing the patreon and baiscally employing people to work on it

Doesn’t seem hard to me. Pretty easy actually

I like dmc but...
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH OH MY LOL.

Abandoning a 2000 hp pool is a scary thought.

Just approach it like a game where you die in two hits and you’ll play a lot cleaner. If the difficulty is in pressing buttons at the right time then it’s just a matter of mastery and anybody can master a vidya

When does this game get hard? I just beat tower dragon boss with little to no effort.
