Is this guy a fleaman?

Creepy little guy we have here

Also it's incredible how we all are finding so much things in so little time

wut

how do you look at those screenshots and not think of world of warcraft

the proportions, colors, design style, everything

[Maedhros]

Eligor is exactly how a 2D titan battle should be. Galamoth, from SOTN to a extent too (with more patterns). That's well done Titan battle in 2D. What I'm expecting is the game shifting to 3D and being similar to LoS Titan Battles. =/

EDIT: To whoever, -1'd me, you should post a response. Tell me exactly how those two look the same, because really, I want to know.

I'm pretty sure that's Gobanz.

I'm pretty sure that's Gobanz.

No, no, it's clearly a Tauren in armor.

Apparently games aren't allowed to have more than three colors or elaborate, stylized suits of armor anymore, because WoW totally invented that stuff and no one's allowed to do anything remotely similar to anything ever.

now it is.

Arujo? Oh God dammit, his soundtrack was part of the reason I didn't like LoS. And I don't understand their slight contradiction of making the game based on LoS, yet the result was a Metroidvania.

I seriously hope we get what we are told, a Metroidvania with LoS action, not LoS on a 2D plane. I want to give this game a chance I really do, but I might pass in this depending on how this unfolds.

now it is.

I just hope you're being funny, because as far as legitimate complaints go, it's a bad one.

I DONT like how this sounds. LoI all over again? (Maybe without the repetitive room-safe hall-room-safe hall etc?

"....our game is not inspired in other Castlevania titles, but rather inspired by our own Lords of Shadow".


The result is a work that its creators define as a "Metroidvania"........

I figured as much, you can see it for a split second in the Nintendo 3DS promo. When Trever dodges away from the bats the screen doesn't move.

Guess you will be forced into closed area combat like Bloodrayne Betrayal. I don't know how to feel about that tbh.

And yet they have no problem taking characters out of the old cannon and changing them around.
