I understand why they removed it but I really hoped that the corruption mechanic would be in the game.

Typical overhyped and underdelivering kikestarter garbage featuring a character that looks like an emo teenager's Castlevania OC.

too easy on first difficulty

I read a post about the portrait skill being OP and it basically carried me through the game
I used flying edge and never even upgraded it until the second last zone
food was optional, i used the attack speed book>str>movement
dodge ring until other movement options were unlocked + highest dps ring
never hit candles for mana, never had to farm for shit, i got arrow to like 2/7 and it destroyed bosses early game

no boss was difficult with welcome company+flying edge+true shot and so the hardest part was figuring out secrets

Actually got me into metroidvanias, so no. I'm putting it on hold until I finish SOTN though.
I'm stuck again..

Perfect

The best part of body possession is that the victim is still awake.

The only things that SoTN does better than Bloodstained is the music and overall aesthetics.

Miriam's design is the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen, and I love it.

I could see that being a problem, but I unironically saw the squid jetting through the water and wondered if it’s shard would let me do the same so I never had a problem

The struggle is great, but it’s hotter to me as a mental struggle, eventually resulting in the victim giving in to pleasure and reward

It’s ugly and there are 5 shards that completely make the rest of the shards useless outside of a few gimmicks.

Yeah that shit was pretty stupid.

I got it on the first jelly i killed. Figured it was a guaranteed drop. Dumb if not.

Stop posting, Inafune, you did a lot of damage already.

Grass is always greener fags are the worst. Even if it had been 2D you people wouldn't be happy. If it had vector art you would call it a flash game, if it had pixel art you'd call it lazy and make >3.3 jokes, if it had hand painted high quality 2D art for the entire game you'd complain it lacked enemy and environment variety. 3D was a practical choice, it's not perfect but nothing is. Hopefully when they make a sequel they can spend more time polishing the aesthetic rather than building shittons of art assets from scratch.

If you activate the quest to kill them beforehand, the shard is guaranteed to drop somewhere as you kill the needed quota (last one is 100% if it doesn't drop by then).

brotip: the start button skips those dialogue moments that occur about 5 times throughout the entire game

Vector art suck

I hate this meme that if a game can't sustain a 24/7 general then it's shit.
Bloodstained is a single player game and by now most people who bought it have finished it so there's not much to discuss beyond making a wishlist of future content.

It’s sustaining a 24/7 general anyways

That was pretty bad design, yeah. Underwater stuff in general was handled extremely poorly. At least there wasn't much of it.

>still get daily threads, some that hit bump limit
>forgotten
If anything that's fucking great for a single player game with limited replayability.

I killed a few when I first found the area. Killed at least 8 of them for the quest too. Nothing. And this is from someone who always rolls with a luck build in this stuff. Underwater stuff in general was fuckawful desu.

Hollow Knigth set the bar for the genre so high that Bloodstained's malicious mediocrity becomes even more evident.

Once Silksong is released IGA will be forced to retire.

I hate those crystal looking things on her body. Idk why but it just looks weird and makes my skin crawl. So unnerving

What's that place in the right side of the catacombs? Or that vertical shaft right in the middle of the map? Or the one slightly to the right of it, next to a warp room. I bet those all have something good in them. Not to mention that room in the cathedral you didn't even enter yet with all the spikes. I wouldn't try that room until after you go into the catacombs though.

It's not like she likes them either.

Most of the dialogue is frontloaded, game makes a bad first impression but it gets better.

Not all gear changes her appearance. 0/10.

What's the thought process behind these threads? Did you just take a break from your jerkoff marathon to check the catalog and assume the game "died" because there weren't any Bloodstained threads?

No it doesn't. It skips you on to the next part of them, and when you hit a janky animated puppet show there's nothing you can do but strap in and wait. The game is so in love with the smell of its own farts it doesn't realise skip means SKIP.

Stop trying to destroy Hollow Knight's reputation fag.

You can skip it all, retard.

Why do you people fall for bait like this? Why?

>that one HK poster who hasn't let go yet
The game was good, but not great, and had flaws. It's worth a play through, but nothing to write home about.

I'm just waiting for word on when they decide to fix the Switch version.

Not wrong in principle, assumed it was scripted like another poster. But I have to retort this with another reminder that if you aren't making Luck the focal aspect of your build in a game like this no matter what the drawbacks, you're doing it wrong. Like motherfucker EVERY shard should be taking 4-5 kills to drop, tops.

Sorry, user, but it's blatantly not going to happen. If they gave a shit they would never have released it in the state it's in, and they definitely wouldn't have used footage from other versions on the eshop page.

I jerked off to her yesterday. She'll never be forgotten as long as I have a dick.

Day of Forgiveness

She's from an indie porn game completely unrelated to Bloodstained. For the past few years said game's developer has been riding on Bloodstained's coattails to shill his (unfinished) game.

Inb4 "it's a free game", it's still shilling.

The fact that this game has an OST that's so forgettable let alone outright bad in a lot of places ought to be a legit enforceable crime.

Imagine being this dumb

I haven't buy it yet. But I only have a Mac and a Switch. I really want to play it, but I don't want to waste my money. How likely is for the Switch port to ever get fixed?

>being this upset

We don't know enough about how the game is set to know if it could be fixed or not. It's possible that the game loads rooms in batches and that the reason the Switch version has bad load times is because it's trying to load too many rooms at once. Maybe changing the batch size to be smaller so there's more load screens, but they're shorter would fix it. People hate one 5s load screen a lot more than 10 0.5s load screens.

Most they will likely do is make it crash less and possibly load faster. They would have to do a shitload of work to get it even slightly below par of the other versions. Having to replace all the textures would probably be a lot of work and take up a lot of space on the Switch's miniscule built-in storage.

Finish your game, faggot. Should I remind you how you claimed that you would finish your game before Bloodstained?

Thanks, figured it out

I really doubt the Japanese dev has been shilling here. Or anyone related to him.
He did blatantly rip ideas straight from Bloodstained though after its initial pitch, in an attempt to ride on its coattails though. That's for sure and not a coincidence.

Which ones are written for standins of which Castlevania songs? Just kidding, you know where this is going. And the BGM for not-Long Library is fucking noise while I'm at it.

Why even get into fanboy wars for this game? It's not like it was some laborious sacrifice to the fans on the part of the developers. They didn't even pay to make it. It's good for "Igavania's Greatest Hits" but that's all it is, and the presentation, all spoken, is pretty shit.

I feel like you're reaching really hard just to be mad.

You mean NoR right? Night of Revenge or something. Anyway I saw that go down. Someone said they wanted that shit banned but the mods made that compromise which is reasonable. Don't know what that user is whining about.

One of the most recent posts by mods is saying she can be fully discussed as long as it's not about the porn scenes.

I don't understand how people pretend this game is good or even tolerable with the shitty pet mini-bosses and portraits of autists. Like what the fuck, it looks like puke and the gameplay is nothing to write home about, but it has waifu. Faggots.

Huh, I didn't get the mist form yet. I'll check the colosseum more carefully
thanks.

I don't think anyone has even done that. I guess someone got curious and looked up Aradia's source game or something and got mad.

Reality doesn't exist.

Portrait is a good game, my least favorite of the DS games but only barely.
The level design of clown world was pretty obnoxious.
I also found most of the soundtrack to just be okay, though Invitation of a Crazed Moon is one of my favorite songs of the series.
Thinking about it more, all 3 DSvanias have my favorite bosses of the CV series.
I really loved the weird gimmicks they came up with in PoR, where Cleopatra would charm Johnathan but not Charlotte, or the blob monster who you have to distract with one character and attack with the other.
It's a shame that Bloodstained ROTN didn't have particularly memorable bosses compared to IGA's other work.

Yeah, she can give birth now to a few enemies, with more to come next time.

Order of Eclessia gets shit on more as a reaction due to its fanbase being insufferable, not due to the quality of the game itself.

What a cute fat owl

I played SotN for the first time last fall, followed by the 3 GBA games, and now Bloodstained. SotN is the best of those five, although Bloodstained is definitely number 2. There are a lot of subtle things in SotN that make it feel like it was an experimentation project, whereas Bloodstained feels like "we have to do this by the book." It's a VERY polished "by the book" approach, but it still feels rigid. Also SotN has significantly better music. Almost every track sticks in your head, whereas the only one from Bloodstained I can remember is the ship music.

They are out of place and poorly executed like the rest of the game's art. It all looks so very lazy. Didn't this kickstarter raise a fuckton of money? You faggots will settle for mediocrity because waifu

Ecclesia was a fucking drag. You can tell IGA was getting burned out on Castlevania after having been churning them out for five years.

He still wants a 1999 though.

I’ve never played it but I’m gonna because your unreasonable hateboner makes it seem good

If the game was really shit it’d speak for itself instead of these desperate attempts to push your opinion. People don’t get this fired up about bad games, they just don’t play them.

Anyone wanna drop me a link

At the time of his DS games, he refused to do a 1999 game because he felt he could never meet the fans' expectations for it.

The waifu doesn’t even look good and there’s no lewd content, you’re retarded
Wacky disembodied dog heads are not out of line for CV and “Big Demon Animal” is common, you only take issue with it because you know where they came from

Yet you keep bringing it up.

Christ can we ban these retarded threads? Every SP game has some braindead fuck posting this

Not him but porn games have no value besides the sex scenes, the enemies being just a setup for sex scenes. Do you think I played Parasite in the City for its amazing gunplay, enemy variety and platforming?
The NOR developer has been an obnoxious fuck for years (he claims that his game is better than Bloodstained) so it's natural to be repulsed at his game.

can you mod the old boat boss model back in?

Where did the animals come from? Was it some kickstarter bonus or something where if you donated enough you could get your dog in the game?

The campaign is too short.

I was expecting the castle to be double the size and have more variety. I blew past the desert and lava areas in a few minutes. I applaud what they did, but it feels like they really could have added more map content. I seriously hope they take the assets they developed for this game and start development on a sequel.

Play the DS ones, they’re all good. HoD is the worst of the bunch, CotM is “your milage may vary” depending on how you feel about a classic/metroidvania merger. AoS is better than SotN.

HoD is the only one I wouldn’t say is good, so I’m not shitting on SotN, and it does have neat experimental things, but the inverted castle sucks and only exists as padding, weapon variety is very limited compared to the latter games (big deal for me as a meleefag) and while it has some solid bosses it’s outclassed in that area later on, particularly by PoR and OoE.

Also BS music is entirely on par with SotN at worst, I catch myself humming several tracks.

He's probably a guy that wanted Bloodstained to be shit but it wasn't, so now he's trying to meme NoR into being shit.
What a fag!

How did the rumor that there are only 7 boss fights start?

>find my evidence for me, and no i won't deny i got caught samefagging
This level of stupidity just makes people root for the indie game even more.

>Isn’t this the biggest castle in the series by room count?
Didn't somebody prove that Bloodstained's castle was actually only the third-largest?

I hope he winds up adding some more scenes down the line. The new pregnancy mechanic is alright, but the game could use a few extra enemies.

Now it's double free. They'll pay you to play it.

Shitposting. Just like "Sekiro only has six bosses" or "Bloodborne only has six weapons".

>a few extra
I just counted and it has 26 scenes in now for the enemies present.
What even else could be added?

Look, I got lost too. But BECAUSE I was lost, I decided to farm for souls. So it's more like

It wasn't so bad. Not as bad as the spike immune armor. Fuck that shit.

Glad I'm not the only one who read beast milk as breast milk.

TEPS OCEUS TEPS OCEUS TEPS OCEUS TEPS OCEUS

Well, the game already has nuns in it, so you could add a priest enemy in and have him do exactly that. An anal scene would be a lot more fitting, but I just want some more fucking paizuri, goddammit.

It's Dawn of Sorrow but worse. Iga had a chance to innovate buy he decided to rehash instead.

>Bloodstained ROTN didn't have particularly memorable bosses
I think some of them would be more memorable if they hadn't been executed better in COTM. The gambler for instance and the twin dragons. I think both of those fights would be considered really cool if it weren't for the fact we've already seen their designs and their fights were much better in COTM.

There is a priest enemy! He shoots holy balls!

Dude, his entire career is built on rehashing the same game over and over again.

I’m hitting snooze on this bad opinion and I’m sure I’m gonna hear it yet again a little while later

SotN has a lot of cool features but all of them are totally superfluous because the game is so trivial to progress in and there are no optional challenges that make those mechanics shine. To me Bloodstained feels like an attempt at having all those crazy features that SotN has while still preserving at least some sense of challenge (and including the whole soul system from Aria to boot).
I'm not sure I'd call Bloodstained better, we're too close to it right now to really look at it dispassionately, but it's definitely one of the best games of this style.

It was a fun game and I loved it. But it was only 30 hours of content to 100% everything.

He was probably holding out for Konami to give him a bigger budget to work with so he could make it a more elaborate affair, but they considered him the "guy who can produce a decent product on a low budget" so that never happened. I do wonder what the plan was for that cancelled 360 Castlevania game was though, the one where you play as Alucard.

There are times to innovate and times to rehash, establishing a new franchise to independently continue a dead old franchise is not the time to do wild experimentation. People trusted you with money because they wanted something they know they like, save the experimentation for side content and sequels.

The thing is, the dash into enemies mechanic could be fine, but your main job is to make the game you promised your backers, that's why you have the chance to make it at all in the first place. Rein in your ambition and just play the hits, you can experiment once you're in a more stable position.
The way Shenmue 3 is handling things is completely baffling to me. Either they're counting on their fans being such pussies that they'll continue buying the series after treating them like dirt, or they just have no plans to continue the series after 3, because it seems like they're completely destroying their reputation.

It worked the second time they tried it.

This, more rooms to explore across more games. Let HK autists and those like them be broody monogamers while we consume as much as we want and actually enjoy life.

What is that thing on the right?

I can’t wait for his solo game

Guys, help me out. I crafted everything I can think to craft, 100% the map, beat all the bosses, completed the bestiary, and collected all their drops, and I'm still missing one sword and one headpiece. What do I do?

Nude mods, check the nexus

Is the switch version still fucked?

Do you have the Valkyrie Tiara?

Sword is in the tower of twin dragons, use dimensional shift to go underneath the walkway in one of the inside rooms.

I'm still playing it

Uhhh.... hang on lemme check.

HK should be included because it's an outstanding game, just like Bloodstained, despite that one falseflaggot trying to drum up a war. We should be bros for all liking the same genre
Blasphemous.

Yes.

I'm already 17 hrs in. Still at 50% map coverage. Well worth every penny.

Too white.

Oh fun, I think I know what room you're talking about. I'm going to be mad at myself for not thinking of that.

Eh, looks alright, but so did Slain when it first came out and it was utter shit, I'll wait til I can actually play it before getting excited.

>But it was only 30 hours of content to 100% everything.
You think that's low? This generation sure is spoiled.

I hope it's not his solo game.

I never would have found that shit in a million years. There’s even an identical floor earlier in the towers where dimension shift DOESN’T work.

youtube.com/watch?v=lTyIE3GEGiI&t=2s
Yeah, it's pretty but doesn't seem that fun to play.

I'm not playing that edgy shit.

I've given up hope. I will not accept sub 60 fps and load times like this
youtu.be/R7JUY7igYPU
I'm just gonna have to settle for one of the other versions

I am playing it right now. It is about as memorable as the DS castlevanias, which are also never discussed here

>the music and overall aesthetics.
ie the only good thing about castlevania

HK is included, I was just calling out the HK fags that say every game other than HK is shit by comparison. Their game is fun, but they're delusional when they act like it's the second coming of Christ.

No, I don't have it. How do I go about acquiring it?

son, everyone is playing the game instead of talking about it.

It's in the Den of Behemoths, hidden behind the foreground.

>What went so wrong?
Nothing, are you fucking new to the modern gaming market or something? Game comes out, game gets played, game gets finished, game gets not talked about much more because people finished it and it's over. I am genuinely confused about what you expect. Most new games lack replayability, and there's so many releases there's no need to replay games anyway.
People will continue to replay much older classic games every few years, and not replay modern releases pretty much ever.

can anyone name a single player game that stays relevant beyond a few months on Yea Forums besides games that have the goty shit storm attached or tons of mods?

Can't believe this fucking works.

Same. I would have never thought of this. I checked the wrong walkway first. But ran to the other interior section, just to be thorough.

EYE
I'd count New Vegas too because the focus isn't on the mods

Oh god, another one that's going to make me slap my forehead. Why does Iga keep doing this?

>Valkyrie Tiara
>tfw save my grind until I get the PURE headpiece
>surely will give me more luck than anything I had before like the armour
>just a little defence and much less elemental defence
WEW, I guess my next tast is just 9/9 AGM LCK. I don't know what else to do than the 3 luck books, valk armour and ribbon.

Breath of the Wild
Two years and it still makes Yea Forums made every day

>still fixing the shitch version instead of working on zangetsu mode
that's what went wrong.

BOTW, Automata and that last FROM game from recent memory.

sekiro completely died after a month

Looks pretty fun to me, I like the block mechanic. Katana parry was my favorite addition to the igavania formula in Bloodstained

That has bot GOTY awards and mods.

2 outta 3 ain't bad I guess :c)
I remember threads for months but then again I don't really remember what happened last week let alone last month or year.

He probably just said that so people would come into his thread.
but that doesn't mean it's not a great game, it just has no replay value outside of the evil/good route final bossfights

>Hollow Knight is inferior on Switch
>A Hat in Time STILL isn't released on Switch, after the promised
>Dark Souls Remaster has shitting compressed sound on Switch.
>Bloodstained is bugged to hell on Switch.
Why do Switch users keep playing multiplat games on the Switch?

This forced HK shit in every thread is just shitposting bait, my man. I dont know why newfags here keep falling for obvious bait shitposting topics but its obnoxious. Its just like how every HK thread had people whining about shills.

T-thanks game.

muh portability

>already a month

not everyone is a smash bros/devil may cry turbo autist that spends multiple months talking about the same crap. Game came out, people played it, talked what needed to be talked, and moved on.

>full priced
is this game worth it?

T-thanks RNG.
You could have killed 1 million and not gotten it, at least was only 2x the amount you already killed.

BOTW was sustained with trolls forcing arguments over the graphics. Literally spamming the same template thread again and again.
Plus, it was emulatable, and connected with CEMU drama.
And with emulation, came mods. Like putting Linkle in the game.

Its weird since the game is still getting multiple daily threads. Not sure why people are acting like its forgotten - oh wait, its because you need to put an inflammatory OP in threads to generate interest in threads that aren't twitter screeshots.

Hollow knight is just fine on switch, 60fps with no resolution problems. Sometimes I would simply rather play while lying down. It's a shame because Bloodstained would have been perfect for handheld play. I just don't understand people who will play multiplats while docked, that's just dumb

Attached: IMG_20190624_223557.jpg (1280x720, 140K)

Its $40, that's not full priced. I think its worth it but its lacking in replay value at the moment since all the free dlc isn't out yet. The two extra characters will add a lot just by themselves, so I'd say yes.

its pretty much the same price as the DS games used to be ($35). It's good but not amazing though, like an 8/10.

Just bought my copy

Hollow Knight isn't inferior on the Switch though and hasn't been since like the very first stability patches the first month after release. In fact with it being portable in addition to its subtle use of HD Rumble it'd be very to argue that it's the definitive version of the game.

How is Hollow Knight bad? I've played both versions and noticed nothing really different. That's one of the more loving ports.

It had some bugs right after release. They're gone.

Its still filled with bugs

This is literally moving the goalposts and I normally don't respond to trolls like this.
Other than that, the last game I remember was fable.

>Castlevania talk
SotN is my favourite metroidvania, all the experimental and wierd stuff gives it soul and the graphics and music are amazing. If the game's math wasn't totally broken and destroy the difficulty curve without the player even trying to do that it would be 11/10 GOTYAY.
HoD is crusty as fuck and it's the only one of the new style Castlevanias I haven't finished, I probably should finally replay it soon.
CotM has a good level of challenge and cool bossfights, but the card system is kind of just a mess. Still pretty good.
AoS and DoS are somewhat overrated. AoS is still pretty good, but DoS just upped the grindan required to get the cool stuff to a whole new level.
PoR has poor parts like the art style and the crappy clown world levels, but the gameplay is smooth and it's got a lot of different weapons and skills between the two characters so it's still one of the best ones in my opinion.
OoE is noticeably harder than the rest like CotM which I count as a positive, also it's got the more darker style again after DoS and PoR. It's also the one I most recently replayed and I have to say a lot of the glyphs are unbalanced and crappy, also the familiar mechanics are absolutely broken and non-functional, and there's too many skills and key abilities like Wallman occupying the red glyph slot. Like for an example on the glyphs Vol Ignis/Fulgur/Grando are wow it's nothing, the knives are absolute ass, and Nitesco and Acerbatus basically better than anything else except for bosses. Still a good game but a lot of questionable stuff considering it was the newest one and they already had a lot of experience making them. Especially the familiars are "WHAT WERE THEY THINKING" tier, I've never seen one go over level 1 in all the time I played the game and I'm still not sure how you're supposed to level them up.

>the familiars are "WHAT WERE THEY THINKING" tier, I've never seen one go over level 1 in all the time I played the game and I'm still not sure how you're supposed to level them up.
You have to keep absorbing more of their glyphs to level them up. They cap at Lv. 3.

What is the ultimate unga bunga build. I want to relive my days of killing things with the Claimh Solais and Death Scythe.

I really like SotN, but how aren't the games that came after it practically objectively superior? They refine the very concept of SotN while innovating on it.

>its lacking in replay value
Maybe if you 100% on NG NM on your first playthrough.
I beat it on normal. I beat it on hard and now I am playing through on nightmare new game so I actually have to grind the recipes and shards again.
Yeah there isn't other characters to play, but there is a lot to do in this game.

Recycle hat with whatever the best gun is and diamond bullets probably.

>Maybe if you 100% on NG NM on your first playthrough.
Impossible to do because of Shortcut and Silver Knight shards being limited to five a playthrough, requiring a NG+run to max them out.

heh

100% doesn’t include getting 9/9 of every shard, that’s beyond autism and requires 9 entire playthroughs

None of the games after SotN have managed to recapture it's essence. They have their own innovations, but they also have their own problems and don't retain all the advances from previous installments.

Having one floor work and not the other was a bad design decision as there is no indication the area with the chest under the screen is any different than the one before. They should filled in the floor on the other room.

No, but it's still stupid to force you to play NG+ by blocking off something as valuable as Shortcuts. You should have been able to find and use all eight in one playthrough.

Agreed, that shit sucks.

Artificial shortening thanks to the obsessive streaming crowd, who only like play the newest thing to scam depressed people out of money.

I remember reading that and absorbing a lot of glyphs from the necromancers on my first playthrough but my zombies never got past lvl1 so I gave up, I guess it just needs a shitload of glyphs which is absurd considering half of the familiar glyphs are 5-star drops.

I stopped playing. Getting 100% seems like too much work and I don't want to do a NG+.

Numbers are down. It seems fine, you can't expect a game like this to last forever.

Attached: chrome_2019-07-12_19-07-45.png (753x490, 135K)

It takes a LOT of glyphs.

I've done everything after 25 hours of gameplay. I enjoy it but at the moment there's not much reason for me to go back and beat it for a third time. Like I said though, the DLCs will add a lot to it.

Kill water horses to get the weapon they drop. Desynth the weapon. Desynth the gold you get from desynthing the weapon. Resynth the gold.
Now the shop sells gold. So farm the currency and buy it.

Wrong thread, dummy.

it was worth playing three times though
>Hard NG first playthrough
>NG+ where I shit on everything
>Nightmare NG where I played weeb mode and only used Katana

>Now the shop sells gold. So farm the currency and buy it.
I was thinking, perhaps it would be cheaper and faster to just farm the weapon, and spend your money on alchehests.
