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

I don't think Hideo Kojima would dare allow any game he was involved in - even one like Lords where he was barely involved - to not be released in Japan.

Can't someone just ask Cox over the tweety?

[VladCT]

Nah, he'll just lie through his teeth.

Better than sitting around guessing

If he will lie anyway, it will be the same. At least you want to put one more lie in the "Cox's Comedic Lies" book.

If there's another "Vampire chess" in this fucking game, I'll fucking kill Cox.

I actually liked Vampire Chess, but that door puzzle later on in the castle was terrible.

Why? It was the best puzzle in the game, people loved it. That being said I think there won't be recycled puzzles.

It sucked, too much RNG from the side of the opponent. And completely unnecessary.

Someone's bad at chess...

Someone said... chess? (look at my avatar)

There's 0 chess logic there.

There's a lot of much better puzzles in the castle, the chess isn't one of them, as it depends on luck (I'm talking about the roullete, even though YOU can exploit and always get the one you want, the PC don't, so you can only count on luck).

To be quite honest, I've never cared for puzzles in action(or action platformer) games. Never. RPGs, I can give leeway to because the pacing is totally different. With action, just give me that, action. I expect a different level of pacing from an action-adventure than I do from an RPG.

Look at this. I think that he is Alucard because he has a fucking hole in his chest. Or maybe is another Belmont in LOS2. It was in an article that was about Dracula. The file is named drac06 or something like that, so maybe its Gabriel, I don't know. Anyway, looks amazing.

Yep. It's really weird when you're jumping and hitting guys, then suddenly have puzzles that are survival-horror levels of time consuming.

Not that I dislike puzzles, quite the contrary. Just not for this kind of game.
