Lol I thought I was the only one who noticed that.
So not only was all the enemies buffed the barrels are as well???
Whats up with that MS?
How come my whip needs to hit those barrels 3 times before they break?
Are they some sort of enchanted barrels or something?
I pretty much mentioned this when I first saw the gameplay footage. These Belmonts are cool looking and all, but seriously, the fact that it takes multiple hits to break apart barrels is making them look like PUSSIES. Add on the fact that classic canon Belmonts could do it in 1-hit. 1-HIT!!!! I've also stated this too, but if this is going to carry over to LoS2, and Dracula's going to have to break boxes and barrels with multiple hits, it's just going to completely negate his badassery in the CG trailer. That shit just won't fly. 1-hit... how hard can that be?
It IS kinda making the old canon characters feel more badass in that extent. 1-hit disposal of inanimate objects, enemies that they can cut through in a few hits. Someone's gotta do a web comic of old Trevor meeting new Trevor, talking about battling skeletons and new Trevor being surprised that old Trevor can kill them in 1-hit.
