- No Leviathan. Satan is summoned back to the world and creates his own version of Dracula's Castle, Pandemonium, which acts as the final dungeon. Full-scale apocalyptic scene happens(the world feels this inbalance and natural disasters occur in various parts of the world). Gabula, at full strength again, is joined by Alucard who helps storm the castle. Alucard keeps a lot of Satan's army at bay while Gabula travels deep within the heart of the twisted keep.


I had actually thought that it would be cool to have Pandemonium be the final fight spot against Satan.

I was actually surprised that more influence wasn't take from Revelation. I thought it would be cool to tie in Dracula's plan with the ending of the world.

- Final Battle agains Satan. First in human form, then in demon form, and last, Dragon(Gabula) versus the Beast(Satan). Satan's Beast form is based on the multi-headed dragon designs in the art(as well as the infamous apocalyptic imagery of Revelations). Totally epic battle.

This plot sounds pretty anime-y. Not western enough.

Tha plot proposed by our friend DragonSlayr81? Yes, is pretty anime-esque... and I love it  :D.

In fact, is better than the original one presented in LoS 2, in my opinion...

Dragon's alternate plot is good but it's missing the after credit stinger that shows a mysterious figure preparing to summon Galamoth from the darkest pit's of the Netherworld now that Satan and Dracula are no longer threats.

The Art of CV: LoS displays a artwork of Satan's Beast form. A red dragon with multiple crowned heads. Yes.

Also, the "Feathers of Stolas" were a planned relic.

Sounds like Dracula's 2nd form in most games. Was this for LoS1 or LoS2?

It was LoS2, I believe. It shows buffed up Satan and right next to him the multi-headed dragon(which is a reference to the Book of Revelations). You also see the The Beast in Ayami Kojima's artwork for CoD behind Trevor:



Though, that particular artwork also has the human-faced locust(another apocalyptic creature), and made me think that CoD was also going to have some "end of the world" themes(would've been cool if Dracula tried to bring on Armageddon in the late 15th century AS the original canon's version of "the devil"). I mean, hell, seeing that poster and that imagery(including Cerberus), lots of hellish creatures, I thought they were going to be bosses(and CoD WAS going to have an apocalypitic tone). Another reason I thought this was because the Minotaur is on the poster, and he WAS a boss(I think the Wyvern's there too, as well as Crazy Armor, as he seems to have a similar bloodstained look as the boss). I kinda wonder if IGA DID have more ideas in store for CoD, but had to cut a lot of it due to deadlines and... poor level planning(LOL).

It is Satan's. The concept is put in his section, and doesn't look like anything like Dracula (either traditional or LoS).

the fact that there's a "face" under it pisses me off.
Laura and Gabriel arrive in the deepest cave of the castle and... they find IGA.

I meant that it reminded me of Dracula's 2nd form from other games, not that I thought it was Dracula. :P
