General Castlevania Discussion / Re: The personal struggles of young vampires Tera and Mizrak

« Last post by default2k on January 24, 2025, 02:12:57 PM »

Goddamn, i managed to login on my account that i made 15 years ago...

We are relics of the past here OP. To us Castlevania was never about identity politics, black representation, female empowerment or having threesomes with random twinks.
Castelvania was an epic platforming metroidvania adventure to explore, have fun, beat bosses and jamming to some of the best soundtracks in gaming.
But that is not how it is today and i imagine 99 of the audience of the netflix propaganda hasnt even played SotN, let alone anything before it.
Its really sad that probably the only adaptation this series will ever get is riddled with political discourse.
But what do we care right? We are dinosaurs, on our way to extinction...

Are these characters from the Netflix show Nocturne? It’s been a minute since I’ve watched it so I forgot almost everything but now that season 2 is out I’m going to binge it this weekend & come back with an opinion after

General Castlevania Discussion / NOCTURNE SPOILERS: The struggles of two young vampires

« Last post by ramiroelliot on January 23, 2025, 06:30:06 PM »

I know it’s all about the main story of Castlevania, but is anyone curious about the personal struggle of fledgling vampires of Tera and Mizrak? Two people who, while good, now confront a different ‘life’ in a way that goes against most of their moral ideals?

I would love a good in-depth character exploration from their perspectives.

The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction. I definitely see why it was, and still is, regarded as one of the best superhero games ever. I think an important part of such games is fulfilling the 'fantasy' of you being the superhero, and IH:UD does that remarkably well.

Looking forward to extra content! I'm aiming to do my second run of the game (as Abbot Dorin) sometime this year, so here's to new stuff being the cherry on top.

Introducing the latest upcoming update! In all those modern megaman-clones, this tend to be the most reliable among all imo.

General Castlevania Discussion / Re: Main Series Castlevania

GoS is technically a main-line title.
Harmony of Despair's premise is that all the 'stages' are pages in a book.
That makes the stages in that game 'stories' within the book.
If that book is one of the Grimoires in GoS, then that could make those stories within that universe.

But in terms of it being a canon game?  It doesn't quite work out, story-wise.
