I get the same sense of achievement when I finished raping Olrox

Gross. Please don't ever use "rape" again under the context of performative achievement.

And even if we never return to the old canon, the next "reboot" of the series, I hope the Belmonts return as the powerful force they once were, able to break barrels and bones in one hit.

That one made my day. Thanks.

Who said anything about performative achievement? I quite literally defiled his neck with my combat cross

[Buflame]

info is reliable. The same site posted the extended trailer hours before cox in e3.
Remember MS is a spanish company,way more closer to spanish press than US/UK press.

I didn't have internet for some days and i'm trying to catch up with the new info, so far i can say that by looking to game play videos, i like it more than the original LoS, Alucard is a great addition to the game, music, i don't know what to say, since from the little that i have heard, it's not what i would like to hear, but still it's a great effort from Mercury steam.

@CastlevaniaLOS Mirror of Fate seemed to have some framerate problem. Will it be fixed when it will be released ?

‏CastlevaniaLOS
@BoostFire - Yes

Well this eases my famerate concerns but we'll see if it's true when the final game is released.

Good to see they assuming the framerate problems Ahasverus has a shitty eye problem to see. Seriously, I think some people just can't see them.

[CastleDan]

the framerate and graphics look much better in this video since you see it directly on the 3ds-

[Ahasverus]

Looks phenomenal

[Gecko]

lol It's really funny to see people actually caring about how many hits it takes to break a barrel.

[CastleDan]

My problem more than anything is the weapons.

With this game and lords of shadow the whip just feels kinda weak. I wanna feel the SNAP ( like in lament of innocence)...I want to see the enemies effected when I smack them with the whip. It just feels like a string tapping them over and over.

[Munchy]

I asked Cox through Twitter if we would be able to turn off the on screen prompts such as "Grapple with R" and "Come back here later with light magic".

No response so far...

[Dominus]

Okay.So we got Trevor belmont,Sypha belnades(or belmont) and alucard.
So where.is.Grant dynasty?

who?

Well when you simplify things like that, it sounds pretty lame, but it's not just the act of doing so, it's what it signifies: Trevor seems weak.  His whip seems like we're attacking enemies with a little kid's jump-rope from Kindergarten and it should not be that difficult with a hardened steel spiked weapon of such weight to break things like SKULLS, etc.
