Hardcore Gaming 101 / Re: God of War Ragnarok director would like to work on a new Castlevania

MercurySteam was monitored by Nintendo when was making Samus Return and Metroid Dread and yet they still managed to do their own thing, which is sad.

On the other hand if the only changes are on game play and not aesthetic, i believe that they will do a very decent job.

If the man does get his wish to make his own CV game then I hope he's carefully monitored by Konami, by people who know what CV is, and are long time fans like us. In that way he won't be tempted to do his own thing with the IP like Cox and MercurySteam did.

Honestly, I expect something for Castlevania, if it’s no more than another collection.  Probably a proper Rondo/SOTN port for the other consoles and Steam, if I had to guess.  Hopefully they’ll slap Legends on there and maybe a remaster of DXC, but I won’t hold my breath. XD

I loved the GoW formula reboot, but I'll be fine without another sad dad simulator.

Waiting is all we have, but i want to believe since the new Silent Hill games announcement, that they have something similar in store for Castlevania.

Well, he took the GoW series to a whole new step from the old trilogy, so i want to believe that, since his favorite Castlevania game was Simon's Quest, he could take the 3d games in a way, like Iga did with the 2d games, when he got to make SoN.

They forgot to mention the other 3D installments of the series: CV64/LoD (being the first attempt), LoI, and finally, CoD. If this guy wants to get the IP license so he can make his dream game then he needs to separate himself from the GoW mindset that he's been doing. And I hope he steers well clear of the LoS games influence as well. To me those weren't Castlevania. They were GoW with SotC segments and sponge enemies that took too long to kill off. No thanks.
