DXC was probably my favorite entry in the series. I'm not saying its because of SotN on the go (though that's a contributing factor), it's because the holy grail of the Castlevania series finally came to America, in a full remake no less! THAT is what gave me hope in Iga. That he could possibly remake more games like this and he said if DXC is successful enough, he will make more games in its style.
Honestly though, I liked the remake. However, they should have improved the fluidity of the controls, you know? The gameplay worked great in Rondo and the other 2D games, but it just feels primitive with 3D character models. They should have given Richter and Maria the ability to fully control their jumps. Midair, they could have had a downward-forward attack. Richter could have had the ability to run.
I also would have liked alternate costumes. Like Rick getting his original RoB and SotN outfits as unlockables and Maria getting her original RoB (<----though it would not have worked) and an adaption of her SotN outfit for the kid version of her.
Overall, though, I loved the game as a whole, and the voice acting in it is boss. And I will agree, some tracks on the OST were bland compared to the original, but some were amazing (Vampire Killer, Cemetery, Ghost Ship Painting, Cross Fear, Slash), and the slew of new tracks was cool (MoonFight, Red Dawn, Tues Deus meus).
