Wow!  Your pixel art is really nice.  Welcome.  There isn't much activity here these days, but there's still a handful of us lurking around.

Can we maybe not post spoilers in the thread titles?  Nocturne season 2 has barely been out for one week, and Life has kept me from watching more than 2 episodes.

Somebody get this guy a blue hat avatar.

But in terms of it being a canon game?  It doesn't quite work out, story-wise.

Canon =/= Official

A example outside of CV:
Super Dragon Ball Heroes = Official, but it’s not canon to main timeline DBS, which mostly follows the manga.

GoS appears to be a canon entry, despite whatever game placement and / or timeline mechanics are required(from an outsider who hasn’t played it), similar to Judgement..

Goddamn, i managed to login on my account that i made 15 years ago...

We are relics of the past here OP. To us Castlevania was never about identity politics, black representation, female empowerment or having threesomes with random twinks.
Castelvania was an epic platforming metroidvania adventure to explore, have fun, beat bosses and jamming to some of the best soundtracks in gaming.
But that is not how it is today and i imagine 99 of the audience of the netflix propaganda hasnt even played SotN, let alone anything before it.
Its really sad that probably the only adaptation this series will ever get is riddled with political discourse.
But what do we care right? We are dinosaurs, on our way to extinction...

Are these characters from the Netflix show Nocturne? It’s been a minute since I’ve watched it so I forgot almost everything but now that season 2 is out I’m going to binge it this weekend & come back with an opinion after

General Castlevania Discussion / NOCTURNE SPOILERS: The struggles of two young vampires

« Last post by ramiroelliot on January 23, 2025, 06:30:06 PM »

I know it’s all about the main story of Castlevania, but is anyone curious about the personal struggle of fledgling vampires of Tera and Mizrak? Two people who, while good, now confront a different ‘life’ in a way that goes against most of their moral ideals?

I would love a good in-depth character exploration from their perspectives.

The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction. I definitely see why it was, and still is, regarded as one of the best superhero games ever. I think an important part of such games is fulfilling the 'fantasy' of you being the superhero, and IH:UD does that remarkably well.
