Topic: New DS game staff

[Cypress]

They are using the portrait of ruin production team. Hope this isn't old news.

Nice, but it would be better if the brought back the gothic-romance style instead of that crappy anime look. u_u

"For this title, we're keeping the production team that made Portrait of Ruin, so it will definitely be a game of high quality."

Well, here we go again.

[Thomas Belmont]

Oh great. More monotony!

[Long John Silver]

I bet at least 1/4 of por's new monsters and maybe even one area from either of the games will be somehow reused.

[crisis]

Now we can guess what the title is gonna be ! I'll go first:
Sonata of Grief

I just hope the artwork will be nice

My English teacher used that word a lot today! (sorry to go off topic, but I felt like saying that. lol)

Anyway, if the PoR staff is back, then the game can't possibly meet our expectations of a GOOD Castlevania game.....hopefully it will have good extras. Hey, does anyone know what it's about yet??

[Xain]

......why.....

Somebody better have a spark of inspiration. I don't want to think of the castle again as squares...but as areas. And epic boss battles would be nice. if all the bosses can have the same energy and the dullahan boss, I will be satisfied. I swear....that has to be the hardest first boss in history.

The first couple times I read it, I thought he said it would be a game of higher quality.  My brain just wouldn't accept the idea that he could still think Portrait is a game on which he should pride himself.

Have you tried playing CV1 death without Holy Water?

Well, according to this article, http://www.destructoid.com/destructoid-interview-castlevania-s-koji-igarashi-50472.phtml , the anime look will most likely not appear for this game. Keep your fingers crossed.

I'm looking forward to this game BECAUSE it has the POR Staff behind it.

seriously, POR is a game in which I have been hooked on longer than any other video game I have played to date. (11 months, to be exact, most other games lose their novelty withen two months for me.)

and if they can top that, I'll be plenty satisfied.

[Profbeanburrito]

Well, I don't care who's behind it. I've never found a CV game  that wasn't fun. So, I'm sure this one will be just as much as every other one.

If this turns out like PoR, I am not even going to bother buying it. Which would make it the first Castlevania game I am willing to pass up since Legends.

[THOTH]

Just stumbled on these boards... hi!

Any way, yeah that's sorta kinda exciting. PoR wasn't really... memoriable to me, I played it quite a bit but nothing really stuck. I liked the way that they tried the stages effect, but it just didn't...seem right. And two characters were annoying. If they avoid any thing overly gimmicky I'll be happy.

And yes the anime art has got to go.
