I can't find much that I can be bothered to finish lately, lol.

God as I get older I know the feeling more and more. I miss having the patience and drive back in the PS2 days to just whiteknuckle through a new game before starting on another, or dare I say it even REPLAYING something from start to finish more than once and so really figuring out what my FAVORITE games were.

But I'm presently trying to alternate between FF7 Rebirth and Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader

No more pining for new entries, no more waiting and hoping. This is finally it. We've been asleep too long and waking up to this feels great!

This one looks and sounds pretty Netflixvania-inspired, from the visuals to the Paris setting (which the Awakening in the Moonlight stage musical also used, weirdly). For better or worse, I guess we should thank Frederator for spearheading a Castlevania revival and redefining it for a new generation.

I'd like to know who the protag is. She's prolly Trevor and Sypha's daughter, but prolly not named after the ones mentioned in that series bible fax.

oh thank god it's confirmed for Switch. 

the fact they're calling stages biomes is making me think this is procedurally generated...  disappointing, but, if it's by the guys who made Dead Cells, well, i can give them a pass.

and they still refuse to name Trevor's successor haha.  just let us agonize a little longer whether it is or is not Sonia.

Yup, here we go again. The Dead Cells guys did a good job in their Castlevania content, so I'm hoping good things.

General Castlevania Discussion / Trevor/Sypha's Offspring (Belmont's Curse Discussion)

So, yes, I know...this is brand new info and we still don't know who she is...but she certainly seems inspired by Sonia Belmont. I wonder if they're going to shoehorn Sonia back into lore somehow? Doubtful, but we at least know it's a female protagonist this time around. She seems to be affected by something with her hand...which I wonder if this is the curse the game is referencing? It actually makes a lot of sense for Dracula to curse the one thing needed to destroy him...a Belmont's hands. Thoughts?
