You know, Hell isn’t supposed to be a place where you get to be with your loved ones for all eternity.  I wonder if Dracula first had to defeat Satan before he could find Lisa and maybe gained some new powers as a result.  Or maybe they’re buds haha.  I wonder if Lisa thinks Satan is real now.

I wonder if the main Bloodstained series will continue to revolve around Miriam.

I beat CV3

Awesome!  It's really one of the high points in the series.  Castlevania 3 is a weird one for me though - it's frequently referenced for its difficulty, but I don't think it's one of the tougher CVs.  I've never beaten Bloodlines or Dracula X SNES without save states, and I've never beaten Haunted Castle or Vampire Killer MSX at all.  I know it might be because I've been playing CV3 for so long, but I've put quite a bit of time into Bloodlines as well, and it just never gets easier for me.

Anyway, I'd recommend playing though the Alucard route someday if you're up for it.  Yeah, some parts are pretty challenging, but it has some cool level design and killer music.  And then you can play through the early stages again on the second loop, and you can use Alucard to access some additional ledges and shortcuts.

Second versions oftentimes mean a second SKU or second game. Assetto Corsa confirms it's a new game because for their slide they make sure to make a distinction between second version and updated version. The slide for that IP mentions "second version" for 2024, but there is an updated version of their most recent entry planned for this fall which is not listed. If it really was about updates, that slide would be mentioning the PS5/XSX version of Competizone for this fall, but it's also talking about the original Assetto Corsa when talking about a second version, an eight year old game, meaning it's talking about Assetto Corsa 2 (Competizone is a licensed GT3/4 focused spin-off so this isn't actually AC2). Assetto Corsa already released a second, updated version with all of its content some years ago.

It's absolutely a new game.

It does look good from what I saw in the video! I find it kind of interesting that you chose the Rose Cross order. To my knowledge the only Rose Cross order is that of the Rosicrucian (Rose Cross) and they are a Gnostic order and don't have an actual Church or organization like the Christian church does.

The "Second Version" may also refer to the update to version 2.0, or "definite edition" or something else. Remember the promised free DLCs still have a few left unfinished, refer such version to "Second Version" might also be because it would be impossible to just use current version's code to fulfill the remaining few promised free DLCs, thus results to the rewritten of the whole engine.
