Topic: "The Dragon Returns" - Castlevania Lords of Shadow Sequel (HERE BE SPOILER INFO)

[Zetheraxza]

I would like some multiple endings.

Dave Cox confirmed that there will be some electronic music in LoS as well. I don't see why not make some catchy tunes now?

[Kingshango]

Electronic music huh? Dracula going into a underground nightclub full of strobelights and monsters confirmed. 


Kidding of course well kind of.

Anyway it seems Dracula's sword has a name, it's called the "Void Sword." Sounds kinda eh to me but I'll prolly warm up to it.

[crisis]

HO HO HO they should've named it 'Valmanway'


i remember getting Maxim's 'Stellar Sword' in PoR

[Nagumo]

All swords should have cool sounding Scandinavian names.

Oh hey it's that guy from the trailer who Gabe Dracula- oh pardon- 'Dracul' kills.

We sure hes a vampire? seems more like a demon or something. Why would he be fighting AGAINST the Lord of Vampires? Leftover resistance of Camilla's?

HO HO HO it seems like satan will be turning draculs minions against him, diabolical

If there're a few electronic tracks in the game, I hope that means: Beats! That could somewhat compensate for the lack of melodies. I mean, there are obviously melodies, but... you know what I mean. Beats may not actually "fit" with the time period of most Castlevania games, but Yamane did it many times and no one complained back then, so I don't see why not.

So, Cox: Alucard's sword is special. That's why he has a reflection.

Oh boy, so much teasing!

[Zetheraxza]

Alucard Sword maybe? Marie's family's heirloom... If it is Trevucard.

Also, if this game has a modern day setting, electronic music could suit it. Something like Batman animated series (2005), Trinity Blood, Hellsing, etc.

It will be like dark rave or ambient, but so far what I've listened to in both trailers are full orchestrations with some hints of electro-bass arpeggios... Maybe that's what it's going to be.

I'm hoping that Maestro Araujo can make some fusion and just plain electronic beats as well.

[Kingshango]

Bet the swords name is "Dragonbane" or something.

[Zetheraxza]

Bet the swords name is "Dragonbane" or something.

Okay, what else have you heard? Spill it out!

[Kingshango]

The name Dragonbane just popped in my head randomly. I think it's from an RPG or something.

Dragonbane is a commonly used sword name in fantasy stories. That might be why you thought of it.

[Koutei]

They actually poked fun at "Schneider Belmont" and "Reinhardt Cornell", so they asked fans to submit their own names for the characters. And as a result, we got Cornell and Reinhardt Schneider.

The name of Reinhardt Schneider was determined by RYOKO AMOU and MIYOKO EBI. Two persons' name can be seen on staff credit "SPECIAL THANKS".  Since Cornell was canceled, he is not naming by fan.

[flyingchai]

I'm sticking with my original theory on Alucard's sword: the blade was the same one Gabriel threw back at Pan to defeat him to open up the way to the deadlands. The sword had the blood of an Old God, and if you notice, Pan's blood was silver as it poured out of him.
A shred of proof that I'm right? None at all.

So is Dragonslayer(thought it sounds too classic fantasy RPG/story).
