Title: Most Badass Hero in CV History.
Post by: Felix on May 01, 2010, 06:04:25 PM
Well, yesterday, I tought 'bout it, and so I questioned:

"What will the guys at the Dungeon think?"

So here it is. Our poll.

BTW, my vote goes for Soma.

NOTE: Edited the name.

Definitely either Simon or Trevor. In fact, they should be the only characters in your poll.

a lot of them are pretty... well I mean pretty girly looking thanks to the last 12 years fashion design art.

Simon and Trevor are easily the most influential characters, But the Trevor Redesign won me over. Classic Richter's redesign was also pretty cool from Chronicles.

When it comes to actions though, I have to admit, Simon is probably THE' most badass. Who the hell kills dracula while his body is getting torn down gradualy by a cursed based leprasy?

Slogra, Skull Knight, Bone Dragon King, Iron Doll, and Galamoth are missing.

...then again, this topic should've been called "Most Badass Hero in CV History."

Seems you also like your fair shair of characters with orgasm faces. I either pick him or Hector.

I would have to say Julius. We don't even need the 1999 game to realize his badass-ness. Though I want it. Badly.

I don't really think of the CV heroes as badasses.  To me a badass is some angry play-by-my-own-rules dude who runs circles around his enemies and kills in style, maybe like Dante in DMC or Riddick in Pitch Black.  Belmonts aren't badasses.  They're good guys, unstoppable holy-powered evil-vanquishing tanks.

So I'm going with Charlotte.

I chose Soma because he is Dracula.

HE IS FUCKING DRACULA, FOLKS.

Also, he's a soul sucking jerk who can use naked hot chicks for his own aid.

I'm dead fucking serious about that.

Alucard.

Reasons:
super-human strength
shape-shifting
"blood healing" - using the blood of his enemies to heal himself (only good character who can)
un-ending life-span

Trevor is the least orgasm-faced character in Kojima's story, that's why i like a lot his re-design :)

Simon, after all he was the first hero in the series of games that would eat meat from out of walls, and lord knows how old that meat really was. And it would heal him when it would kill other mere mortal men.

Even with his original design, Trevor was really badass

Simon.. pussy

JOking, I love Simon :P but he's not near to Trevor's grandness, hey, he killed Drac WITHOUT MAGICAL POWERS! Even Simon had that in advantage ^^

Trevor had help though. I agree that Trevor is most badass.

Nathan Graves, considering how challanging the game was, he must of been badass... Also, he actualy looked kooler then most belmonts.
Title: Re: Most Badass Hero in CV History.
Post by: Inccubus on May 03, 2010, 10:09:38 AM
 ;D Nathan wears a skirt! Pansy!! j/king

For me it's between Simon and Christopher because they both beat Drac twice with only the bear essentials.
Christ is close because he did the job once with nothing but the whip and then a second time with just a couple of sub-weapons. On the other hand, while Simon used all the basic tools he had much tougher enemies in round 1 and was CURSED AND DYING during round 2.

Trevor, Simon and Richter are definately badasses.

But I voted for Christopher. He took on Drac twice (I know I know Simon did too) but never fully got the recognition he deserved. It was cool they sorta re-told his story in Adventure Rebirth but I've still always wanted to see a next-gen game starring Christopher that basically takes the CV Adventure & Belmont's Revenge and combines them into 1 big badass game. That would be sweet.

Post by: Inccubus on May 03, 2010, 08:32:02 PM
Yeah, and I forgot to mention that Christopher even had to fight his own son. How many other Belmonts ever had to take on another Belmont let alone their own kid? (Jonathan fighting the memory of Richter doesn't count!)

Simon Belmont, hands down. Super Castlevania IV solidified his badassery in the series forever. I absolutely hate his redesign though, his design from Castlevania-SCIV was just fine.
Title: Re: Most Badass Hero in CV History.
Post by: X on May 08, 2010, 01:43:23 PM
For me it's Simon. He's been featured in the most games (though remakes) and is the most well-known to all CV fans. Although Richter is steadily making his way up there too.

-X

I voted Shanoa. Not only is she strikingly beautiful, but she's not portrayed as an object or a bystander like many video game women are; she has a mind and a soul. That aside, she more than filled in when the Belmonts were on sabbatical and was capable of using the power of Dracula itself...in convenient glyph form. In addition to coming to her senses and exposing Ecclesia, to which she belonged since her youth, for what it really was and stopping it, she goes to pretty much every non-castle environment imaginable, has no qualms about disposing of her adoptive brother when he's consumed, and then takes on the whole castle.

tl;dr: Shanoa.

Second would be Simon, third would be Alucard.

Simon, all the way. So far, he's the only Belmont to defeat Dracula more than once.

Christopher Belmont did too

Post by: Munchy on May 09, 2010, 10:09:21 PM

Well, if you really want to get technical, Dracula escaped when he first fought Christopher. But then there's Adventure Rebirth, so who the hell knows anymore.

I'm going to be a conformist and vote for Simon/Christopher.
