So in light of this not so surprising revelation, the Julius rumor is looking likely as ever.

[Foffy]

I'm surprised his pants haven't been lit yet.

Maybe he's found a way to produce clothing to not catch on fire, seeing as he has a habit of often saying or implying things that regular liars would be thrown into a furnace for.

Guess I'll wait for the HD console port~

So, does the "surprising" plot twist show Dave Cox as a liar for the 40th time now? ;3

I kinda expected a little more originally. Kinda sad that we all got the plot twist WAY before the game even came out, just by visuals alone. Him trying to hide the fact is almost as poorly done as IGA trying to make you think Mathias Cronqvist is someone OTHER than Dracula, just because he named him something other than Dracula Vlad Tepes(ahurrhurr... they are all expecting a Vlad Tepes, but will NEVER expect a guy named Mathias to be..... DRACULA! Even though I said LoI's main purpose is to explain why Dracula is 800+ years old by SotN.). Wow.... and I kinda put blame on Alvarez too. It was probably the more basic, garden variety of plot twists a writer COULD'VE done. Why they didn't go for something more original... beyond me.

Stop. I'll help you realize that expecting more is a silly idea. The first Lords of Shadow had four writers I believe, and the biggest thing that happened with that plot was a plot twist that a 14 year old on DeviantArt could come up with (presumably this child was related to staff, so it was a freebie idea for the plot). They've already set the ground for forgettable, silly plots that Cox and crew will always pimp out as "amazing" and secretive, when they're more bumpy and weaksauce than the framerate to LoS and MoF.

I'm willing to bet LoS2 is going to have a storyline as stupid as this. The Brotherhood is what Gabriel is going to hunt for years, when maybe, just maybe, the super evil bad gaijin Satan is pulling their strings, and then in the future they fight, and they die. The tragic tales to ever befall a consumer since Dragon Tales.

Waffle, how did you find this golden place? They seem so sincere that I almost joined this community (lack of time makes me think  twice).

I've been posting there for like ten years.

I'm that weird Abicion guy.  You can tell because my signature links to this thing:  http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8299088/1/A-Soldier-s-Account

I liked the endings.

I want to see Julius now if he shows up in this game.

My view on the endings: I overall liked them. The voice acting was nice.

I have no problem with Trevor being Alucard, it was super obvious and that's quite cool not to have too many different characters.

It felt strange that Dracula felt so sad when he learned Trevor was his son. I assume it is one of the moments that made him dive deeper in darkness.

Castle crumbles? So, it was rebuilt then in LoS2?

I was a bit disappointed about the "secret" ending (is it the real deal?), I wanted something more hinting to LoS2.

We should make a spoiler discussion until the game is officially released too.

So what of the "Lost Soul"?  What is it?

Done and done.

Nice to see that they didn't even bother finishing the animation for the mouths in the cutscenes. Or fix any other issues with the game for that matter.

[Kingshango]

I think I can mention this here but the people who beat the game all clocked in at about 9 hours without getting %100.

ehh reminds me of motion comics in away that demon guy clearly had his mouth moving so they either : one, they wanted to do it like this or,  time constraint which makes no sense to me seeing as how mouth movement does not seem to be to hard program right?

Woah woah woah...... I can still play fire emblem after this? Cool thought I would have to lay off fe . The game looks awesome sauce and well since I hate to be spoiled I'll back off.

A short review but

You don't know about Abicion OR the Tales Forums? Abicion is infamous over there. You should look up his posts...which usually involve Mint. 

But now that MoF got leaked...I'm not sure I'm looking forward to as much as I did. I see a lot of "disappoint". I only spoiled one particular thing for myself that wasn't even really a spoiler since we all knew it was going to happen, but oh well.

[Ahasverus]

Wow Cox really lied on this one. 9 hrs? WTF is this?

[Lelygax]

And that because it have 3 stories, its incredible doesnt it?
