What if Alucard is evil?

from the nintendo website:

"Armed with his sword and array of magical transformation powers, Dracula's 'son' is a warrior with a thirst for battle matched only by his need for blood. But where do his loyalties lie: with his father's plans for conquest or those who seek to destroy the lord of darkness?"

i would say he is somethig like laura and carmilla

IMO if the framerate is the dealbreaker, then you just didn't like the game altogether, or just weren't that interested to begin with... At best it's worth renting or borrowing from a friend to see the product as a whole, and trying to see past the framerate.

Just my opinion, but when I really like a game or am really hyped for a game I want, (particularly in a franchise I like) I can overlook those kinds of issues if the rest of the game is fun and enjoyable.

It's why I enjoy Mega Man X6 despite the fact that it has a bad translation, throws the kitchen sink at you, and has some suspiciously unfinished looking level design.

Well that's a bit different actually, since I like the difficulty. Framerate is more of a different issue...
Bullshit, because framerate actually affects the gameplay. A shitty translation does not.

EDIT: And holy shit, that site music is fantastic! I hope there's at least 2 more pieces like that, at least the soundtrack can be worth it.

Not sure if I'm not experiencing poor framerate, or I'm just not noticing it...  :-\

Framerate doesn't really bother me, since I generally don't care too much as long as it's playable, and to me I feel it's more then playable.

Been reading that a majority of the move list is shared between all characters(so your levels carry over) but they also have a few unique moves of their own specific to them.  Not sure if that refers to just their subweapons and acquired abilities but we'll see(unique attacks would be great since they all use the same weapon).

Try it

If you do not enjoy or do not like, do not buy
If you liked or fun (and have money) Buy

People give too much thought to things, and luckily we have a demo to try it ..

My niece tried the demo she just turned 6 acouple weeks ago

And she liked it I put it on easy but I'm sure she can deal with it on normal :) . She needed some help during the platforming(but she did start to get use to double jump and used it alot toward the end and chain swinging well, she needed to learn the timing but she got it for the most part) and such but she got the hang of it, killed most normal enemies she figured out by herself that she could charge up the boomerang and she beat the demo boss mostly by herself (took awhile but she did it  :) the thing killed her because she did not press Y toward the end during one of her fights  and I just told her to jump when it rushed and the x prompt once).  Afterward she wanted to play some adventure time  :)

this is not the first time she has played castlevania she's played some dracula's curse,rebirth, chronicles, and the ds titles not awhole lot time wise but she has played them. She also likes fire emblem made her own MC

Yep I got alittle, hyperactive, vampie killer   :)
