Oh right. Forgot about that.
Maybe they don't want players to play hide and seek as a bat.

It'd have been a bit dumb to put a bat form with all the plateforming. Alucard's act would be a piece of cake with a bat form.

Dragon form or Goose form? Cause that looks like a plucked goose.

In sure the platforming would've been adjusted accordingly to suit the new mechanic. Or bat form could use up a shitload of your magic bar.... Or something.

Dope.

[Intersection]

So we'll actually be able to control our dragon. Neat.
All that's left to wonder about now is whether Drac's dragon form will be your generic "big mushroom" stomping machine, or whether it will have its own unique abilities. I'm hoping MS chooses the second option.

[EstebanT]

Holy shit. Stolas has for some reason always been my favorite enemy. Stolas is back more badass than ever!

[Dracul_Belmont]

Maybe we have to defeat Stolas, Alastor and even a dragon to acquire those abilities. That would be great

[Ahasverus]

Dope.

Fuck. Me.

I'm going to lol when those of you that are expecting all these grandiose things will be utterly disappointed when it turns out it's not what you expected once the game's available. Same thing happened right before LoS1's release. There were some that enjoyed it for what it was, and there were many that hated it for what it wasn't. There were articles revealing a lot of random stuff about the gameplay and people would misinterpret things left and right, accurate or not. Same thing's gonna happen with LoS2, mark my words.


as for myself? I have no doubt it's gonna be a good game, but MercurySteam has pulled the classic "bait 'n switch" before and I'm not falling for it again, sorry. I'm keeping my expectations realistic.

I'm expecting "Lords of Shadow 2", not "Christ is coming and is now a videogame - Carmilla's bouncy boobs special edition".

If that's what I get, another LoS, I'll be happy.

You're right. Except for the part where it doesn't look like a goose at all....

[beingthehero]

Nah, looks like a straight-up goose head to me.

[Maedhros]

Where did you guys see that the Dragon would be controlable? Reading the article only confirms it'll be the same as the Dark Crystal.

[Dremn]

Dope.

WHY THE FUCK DIDN'T THEY MAKE A 2D CASTLEVANIA WITH THIS LEVEL OF ANIMATION

DAMMIT MERCURY STEAM ;___;
