Yea no fireballs or teleporting, it is pretty disappointing.

we don't know that yet.

That could be his sub-weapon possibly..... possibly. That was just a tutorial level.

In addition to subweapons such as fireballs, which Dracula did project out of his cape in MoF, there's no doubt that all three main weapons will have their own respective advanced moves, also as demonstrated in Mirror of Fate.

I see the trailer and gameplay demo of Final Fantasy XV and seeing Noctis teleport from enemy to enemy, then teleport hundreds of feet into the air to fight an enemy on the side of a building, only to fall down and teleport to his next destination, I someone WISH THAT is how Dracula played like. Tactically teleporting from enemy to enemy, not being afraid of teleporting to ridiculous heights, embracing the fall because he knows his skill and gravity is on his side. He's too badass to suffer fall damage. That's something a "mere human" would suffer, not "The Dragon".

What crisis asked.

It's already been stated that Dracula can turn into mist, for example, and we don't see that in the demo. It's silly to think that the few demo abilities are comprehensive.
Probably Cox chose the wrong words when he said we start with "everything."
I interpret that as starting with all three main weapons.

EDIT: Yes this is hopefully the case

In LoS 1 when Shadow magic was active, his daggers became fireballs, which I'm certain was deliberate given his fate.

Ok huge apology to anyone who read my previous post and possibly started worrying, I never did play LoS 1, I briefly have before, but I was not aware of sub weapons being in that game at all period. I have no way of knowing anything at this point, again apologies.

So this is the case and anyone please do correct me if I am wrong, In Lords of Shadow 2 we are actually getting two new main weapons. I guess when they say Light magic and Shadow magic is being replaced with Void and Chaos, that could mean anything, I guess we don't really know yet for sure.

So theoretically one sub weapon could change the properties of all 3 weapons.

So one specific sub weapon while using the Void sword could possibly give us the projectile ability the sword has in MoF *Example*

Then one specific sub weapon while using Chaos Claws could give us some fire AoE *Example*

Then one specific sub weapon while using the blood whip could potentially give us a dash teleport. Maybe Dracula's iconic 3 projectile ability too *Example*

Far as mist form is concerned, yes I could see mist form being used for stealth in the game or in the modern day setting of the game, it was stated, so I don't see why not.

One thing I was wondering is Dracula walking around the city  in modern times. It would be cool if there was a day and night system like Simon's Quest. How could Dracula walk around in the day anyways...?

So that would mean, the "time travelling" elements are Gabula's memories? or his imagined what if scenarios?

I wonder what happens to stuff like that after they've served their purpose. Do some lucky assistants play rock-paper-scissors over them?
