Getting a little sick of castlevania games where 50% of the castle is Boring Underground Cave System that spans the entire bottom half of the map and is filled with fucking bats and fish.

You Yea Forumstards can say wat you want, but this is the first game I enjoy in years.

Same, but you asked me to criticize it you little bitch so eat my dick.

Should have been 2D
Too easy

Otherwise it’s great

How were you supposed to know where to get the spike armor without looking it up?

You realize that just by replying, you're validating their post and showing you care, right? But good job. I'm sure that 'kys' really shook them to the core.

I hate that this shit makes me laugh every time.

it's a mystery, user. the game obviously expected you to be a psychic.

>Find a flaw
Is not Castlevania and is not related to Castlevania lore

the game assumes this isnt your first castlevania and you're autistically exploring every square on the map to fill it in 100%

The Switch version

Same with the underwater travel. I thought the direction shard you get that propels you underwater was an exploit and had to double check online that it was the intended way forward in the game. Just strange game design.

You just posted one.

I must have filled that square by accident after abusing the strat of the familiar that helps you quadruple jump, because I autistically explored every square after getting the invert power and I still missed it.

that one chest at the top of the fucking tower with a progression required item that you can't fucking see

Did they patch the game already? I've stopped playing after my game crashed few times upon reading books on some of the shelves throughout the map. I've got tired of suddenly losing progress.

the underwater traversing via the Aqua Jet shard.

The problem is that they made it a random drop from an enemy that may not show up on screen.

A copy of that shard needs to be in one of those statue things so players will go "this is important"

there has been a patch

That's not patched. The only "patch" nerfed some of the funner weapons and spells.

>Nerfing weapons in a single player game
For what purpose?

Because "muh eventual pvp mode, if we ever release it"

Those fucking backer portraits should've all been tossed into a secret gallery room instead of being all over the castle including areas where they don't even make much sense like the not-clocktower and the caverns.

Here's a flaw: I was gifted the game and all the extra stuff for free. At thst time, my computer broke. My ancient laptop can't run it. Fucking pisses me off.

Literally who?

it's good but not as good as the original, and other more recent titles are better successors to the genre than it (blasphemous, ori, dead cells, hollow knight, etc)

Art design/direction is complete ass. Most of the enemies are either boring to look at or flat-out ugly, and they all die with the same red mist effect that gets tired after the first 3 kills.

Basically the most skilled player of all time who has fully completed and mastered hundreds of indies. He sets a WR basically every week and posts constant videos of no-hit, 1CC, special condition runs and masters games in like a tenth of the time anyone else can do them. insane player

Yeah. What stopped you? The game is easy as fuck. Unless you started on nightmare mode. Just level up your equipment, eat some food, and then beat his ass.

Happy couple.

Not enough porn spawned from this game.

It's already her girlfriend's job.

I need to go back and finish it, I got absolutely walled by OD and that was even before the Rhava Velar nerf

Those heels are amazing.

That's what the other girl is for.

People say "poorly optimized" and kind-of mindlessly agree with it, maybe adding a "but" like you did. But my comp is absolutel dogshit too, and it likewise ran maxed for me. It didn't seem especially straining either.
Are people just parroting this shit without any idea what's "poorly optimized" and what isn't? Or are we supposed to be getting high-spec performance all the way back to old AGP cards and pentium 4s or something?

Weapons are completely useless compared to shards by the mid game. Jet stream will overshadow whatever weapon you have, then once you unlock chisel barrage you won't even consider your weapon. Finally, you'll eventually get Gebel's glasses and then you'll never use anything but summon hellhound again. Well, except maybe tepus oceus for farming.

It's a shame because some of the weapons and weapon skills are fun to use, but magic was so much better that I really only used weapons for the i-frames on certain moves.

I know how good guns can be, especially with diamond bullets, but summon hellhound spam would still do it faster.

My point was combining both is best in life.

Haven't played it.

Uninspiring, insipid and bland in artstyle, theme and presentation.
Average to Mediocre music.
Only thing it has got going for it is the gameplay.

The ugly as sin artstyle.

So are you agreeing or do your eyes not work?

>Only thing it has got going for it is the gameplay.
Good thing that is literally the only thing that matters in this genre

So go play it, is not so bad, you will enjoy it if you like Castlevania, just don't expect it to be the next SotN, OoE, AoS nor PoR.

Fuck you and your shitty porn game.

By the time you get the glasses you're through 99.9% of the game, anyway.

Isn't going back on backer promises kind of against the rules?

And yet the costume poll they put out like a month ago already stated that the minimum price for costumes will be $1.

>just don't expect it to be the next SotN, OoE, AoS nor PoR.

is it the shovel knight of castlevania at least?

The horns are so silly.

i liked it but i enjoyed monster boy and hollow knight alot more

Level design completely missed the atmosphere, and no fucking with the colors and saturation with post-processing wasn't a good solution.
For everything else still a pretty good game.

If I have to rank it among castlevanias it would go like this
SotN > OoE > PoR > AoS > DoS > Bloodstained > HoD > CotM

Is worth a try.

>gameplay only matters
What an absolute plebian opinion. Have you even played any of the castlevania AoS, Sotn, DoS even the old metroids?
The gameplay makes it good but its the atmosphere, music and design which add the soul to them and make them legendary.

3D models.
That is easily, and quite possibly only, flaw in that game.
It would be goty for me if they used done it in the usual 2D Castlevania pixel style.
But they didnt and that alone makes the game not as enjoyable to me.

You could try the little side game they made. It's cheap but a lot of fun and solid as a Classicvania.

When has that ever been true though. Apart from Dracula's spire, there's hardly ever any semblance between the castle's outside and inside. Sometimes you exit the clock tower and come out at the foot of the stairwell to Drac's throne room only to see the clock tower off in the distance when it should be the building right behind you.

Alright since you asked.

The bosses are complete pushovers for the most part and the difficulty just isn't there. I think there's a lot of hitbox jank and because of it the combat isn't terribly satisfying outside of just watching numbers go up.

The level design is also pretty bland in spots- the hall after the garden looks unfinished and untextured and there's just a strong lack of polish- like why is there a castle interior inside the ship, or the fast travel room? Why is the ship back on the sea after crashing? They couldn't of just swapped out the background and stopped the rocking motion?

The grind for supplies like Onions Sauce if you care for completion is awful as it only drops from chests- and some items that you need multiple of only have 1% like the Flying Beef or whatever it's called.

The entire Japanese section just doesn't make sense in the context of the lab, nor does the train ride segment. Little bits of word building like that completely fail the games setting.

There's also a handful of mechanics that just go underused or just don't add anything like the hand pointing or using spells on background objects like the canon. You can't interact with anything else so i don't know why it was a tutorial.

A good chunk of shards are just "summon a enemy and it bounces before despawning." and not a lot of them are worth using or even trying. You can realistically get the blood grinder knights shard and have it walk you through the game without ever needing to look back.

Some shards are just a pain in the ass anyway. Stuff like having to swap out reflector ray was awful and there's a good handful of stupid shit like the underwater jellyfish roadblock people often hit that isn't signposted anywhere.

It's a okay game but it's got many more flaws

Because it doesn't even make sense from the outside.
The village is shown far away in the intro but it's right next to it in the game, the entrance on the 3D model is some funky staircase but in the game it's a drawbridge, the train station is under the castle but when you're riding the train it's suddenly on the other side of the map and apparently next to a lake instead of an ocean, etc.

What I do is get it to drop once and create a reciepe using it, then buying the dish in the shop and use alkahest to get more beef.

>Stuff like having to swap out reflector ray was awful
I just use the shortcuts strictly for this since it was time consuming to keep changing it back and forth.

At least when you climbed those towers you actually were atop the castle and not suddenly in a ching chong nippon cave.
There's still some basic logic in the arrangement of environments.
