What's the new hidden area? 

[Foffy]

He's referring to the new crossover area. You have to go through a process in the main game to get to ti, but it's not complicated.

[Dark Nemesis]

Nothing special of the new area, basically one new boss, as for the classic mode, very nice, but at the same time too short. That second area was super annoying.

The most beautifull part was the ending that pays tribute to Super Castlevania IV, best ending credits.

I played classic mode and after looking at the map it occurred to me: this mirror's the original Castlevania! I agree it was a bit short. Putting in two or three more stages would've been a nice balance for game-play length-wise. I've yet to try the bloodless mode so I'll fire that up later-on today.

[Nagumo]

Classic mode is more of a remake of CV1 than SCIV or Haunted Castle ever were.

Change my mind.

Though I haven't finished it yet, I've played a bit of the game using Bloodless. I have to say it garners my interest far more then Zangestu mode ever did. Unlike Zangestu mode, Bloodless isn't required to execute button combos in order to pull off attacks or the like.

Classic Mode is the closest Wayforward will ever get to making a Castlevania.

[Foffy]

I can see Wayforward coming along in the future for other Bloodstained games or spinoffs. They already have a Metroidvania background prior to assisting with Ritual of the Night in the Shantae games, and the obviously Castlevania-influenced The Mummy Demastered.

Castlevania's current home seems to be trying to get it to work for mobile platforms, so I don't believe Konami would even consider Wayforward, despite the...well, absolutely blatant effort they did with Classic Mode here.

That's true, but the ending is another story.

I really hope they keep Wayforward, like I always say WF has done a great job. I bet if they had been working on things from the start, we woulda got all the stretch goals on time and under budget.

I started classic mode a few days ago but not super far. I keep dying to dumb things like jumping to a platform but missing my mark and falling into a pit. Even still, I've been having a good time with it.

I've enjoyed playing classic mode however there is a tiny bit of lag which does cause trouble for me. Another minor gripe is that Miriam's whip can't up-grade    That would have made classic mode all the more sweet.

[GuyStarwind]

So, I finished classic mode and until I saw the credits had no idea I could slide and backdash... oops

[VladOfWallachia]

The slide makes it easy to skip past the snake dragon enemies, and if I remember correctly, the slide also does damage. Don't use it near trap doors, I instantly fell through one that was completely closed when I slid over it.

Somehow I missed the backdash, I didn't know that was an ability.

[DarkLavos]

Oh yeah, I found out during gameplay that you could backdash and backflip but didn't know about the slide until the credits too lol
