Bloodlines Simon theme was the best version

Dracula is more of a threat than the classic timeline one (who got ressurected like 10 times in a century to die 5 minutes later)

Drac in the old timeline makes me think of this.......(Drac is Homer, the dogs are the various Belmonts and other characters who always defeat him and take away his grand visions of world domination shortly after being resurrected)


The Simpsons - Chip Thieving Dogs



I'm surprised poor ol'Drac never tried resurrecting quietly, even if only just once, to take another shot at a somewhat peaceful life. At least he'd live long enough to take a stroll around the castle.

A fitting end to Castlevania would be that Dracula wins and mankind is lost forever. I wonder how the LoS timeline will end. If Gabula is the protagonist in LoS2, then we might just get that ending. Though I guess it's gonna be something like this:

Gabriel defeats Satan and then somehow kills himself to end his own misery. Or worse; He becomes a human again and lives happily ever after.

Oh how I sometimes wish that the bad ending in the sorrow games would've been canon. Somacula's fate is inevitable, so he is killed and Julius puts and end to Dracula once and for all. It's both a tragic and happy ending at the same time. The fact that Soma gets out alive never sat well with me. Dunno why. Also, why am I writing this with the spoiler feature? Lol. Whatever.

I always thought they should make a full game based off of this.

I never minded Soma winning out over evil. It felt like Mathias was redeemed, and can live out his life as a human, with Mina.

At least for Aria's ending it felt better. Specially what with Aluc-er-'Arikado' thanking Soma in his Mother's name, for defeating the chaotic flow of power which kept Dracula and his castle's vicious cycle going, therefore denying his destiny and ending the threat of Dracula ever coming to pass again.

But Dawn presented the better Dracula scenario- where Mina is supposedly killed, filling Soma with enough anger to begin absorbing the chaos around him, mirroring how Mathias became Dracula after Elizabetha was killed, and declared war on humanity after Lisa was killed. It would be Dracula being reborn into Evil once again after the death of his third.

AoS, the normal ending was fine. DoS, as Flame said, set up a PERFECT bad ending that would've worked awesome in bringing back Dracula and setting up a new game with Julius. It's also insult to injury that the good ending of DoS was sooooo bad. The whole, "She got me under her finger..." urgh... so sugary it gave me cavities. URRRRRRRRRRRRG! Interestingly enough, has anybody ever translated the after story where Julius is training his successor, and they are hunting Olrox?

[Flame]

So that's where those cavities came from...

EDIT: nope, sadly :C

Honestly, Julius mode had a better plot than the main story, and it had like, what, 3 cutscenes?
