I like Trevor Beltmont. The eyepatch was a nice touch, and his design works, unlike Simon's, who is just Light Yagami.

relevant:



Trevor's theme is also one of the best renditions of Beginning ever.

Everyone like some shit that most of the other people don't, seriously.

For example, I love a game called Tobal on PSX. No ONE likes that shit.

Dude I like Tobal too! Although most people bought it for the sole reason to play the FFVII demo, hah

I like Tobal, Ergheiz, and Power Stone.
So Judgment was kinda right up my alley.

So I just started playing CV Judgment and I think it's a really fun game. At first I was like:

O_o

But now I'm like:

:-D

It's fun. The characters are pretty easy to use, and while I hate some of the designs, much like Castlevania Puzzle, Pachislot, or The Arcade, I think it's a cool diversion from the normal series. Flame away...

I really do think it's a worthy entry into the Castlevania series though. It's a good look to have different kinds of games present in a series and Judgment is definitely different as far as CV is concerned. But I think they did do a good job with it. It's really kind of like Smash Bros but for the CV series and they really did a good job putting a lot of fanservice into the game, which is basically the whole point. I don't think they meant it to be a serious effort in the CV cannon,  but it's something fun for the fans, and I think the game itself was kind of misunderstood, but that's just me.

 You are not alone. We here in Venezuela managed to held 8 tourneys (1 monthhly) for the game and gathered like 10 players in each. We got pretty hardcore into the game (read: hardcore =/= good haha) and loved everything from it.

 If you guys like, check my YT playlists with ALL of the tourneys recorded (200 vids), and specially the last one, in wich we managed to outnumber MK9 with 29 entrants HA!

http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdsphO0F4xrmva_1HzgjtPbYR55gt4Lfk

A few stuff here and there and the game would be pretty balanced. I used low tier Simon and managed some good results after a lot of hard work!
I guess that all IGA haters are rejoicing now. Have fun with your fancy Belmont Dracula and rat stealth.

I liked Judgment a lot as well, I really wish the game was released on PC or even 360/PS3.

It's responsible for Shanoa's Judgment redesign and some music remixes.

That's about the other thing it's good for.

I actually had a lot of fun playing Judgment with my friends! I used to bring a bunch of games/game systems to my friends' houses because I was the person who had all the multiplayer games. We had WAY to much fun with that game...more than we should have. I'm pretty sure us making commentary and dressing up the characters also helped us enjoy the game more. I also really enjoy the music in Judgment. I still have numerous tracks from it on my playlist.

Nowadays one of my friends has the multiplayer games we play, and I don't really buy multiplayer games anymore aside from fighting games.

I always thought Judgment was a blast too. Like most have said the character designs were... different and for me personally I wish I could skip the special moves. They're cool the first few times but then it's a little too much.

At the time I wasn't very keen of a fighter. I was just waiting for the next MetroidVania to come out.
Right now, I'd be 100% invested in a Judgment 2. I'd be thrilled if they announce it (provided they keep it japanese in look and CV-ish in music).
The soundtrack was totally awesome.
And my favourite characters were, of course, Shanoa and Maria  :)
Now I'm tired, eternally walking... forever dying, and never stopping. I feel in sorrow, all I see is white. I’m following a blind way beneath a sad sky.

Man, I expected nothing from this game yet I had a ton of fun with it. I played it obsessively last fall. Too bad it got the reviews it did; the game wasn't anything particularly special but beyond the character designs it wasn't god awful either.

I actually like Simon's redesign, chuu~

That's nice! The game looks great in HD!

And why is that?
It must be because I said that at this point I would be more invested in Judgment 2 than in "some other" kind of game (meaning that Judgment 2 (heck, even Harmony of Despair 2) would be better than another reboot type or epic grand game for me).
I know it could get annoying for some people, but it is way more difficult to be in my place. Since Order of Eclessia I'm waiting for the new Castlevania. And, in a weird way, Judgment and Harmony of Despair kind of filled that empty space all this time that I'm enduring, waiting for the MS trilogy to end.
I wish it would already be 2014 so we know what the future of Castlevania is.
In the meantime, it's unavoidable for me to say things like that, from time to time (respectfully, of course).
