The evil Soma ending of DoS should be made canon. Making Soma turn bad at the end of AoS retcons DoS.

So the Sorrow timeline should go like this:

AoS
DoS - Soma mode
DoS - Julius mode
*oS - play as Julius' son (or daughter) or Alucard and defeat Soma

As someone pointed out in another thread, they are running out of timeline for Castlevania (yes, they have 300 years between LoI and CV3, but you can't have Dracula then). Perhaps when Soma becomes the Dark Lord he ushers in a new Dark Age of Vampires, subjugating the human race and setting civilisation and development back 1000 years? This would then effectively give an open-ended mediaeval period for more CV games. (I know it's a bit of a cop-out but it could work...)

It would work only if it had vampires with laser swords and jet packs, Hyper Mecha Death, and the Belmont had a jive-talking mutant side kick.

Or they could just remake CV1 yet again.

If that happened it would for all intensive purposes become like the Vampire Hunter D book series in which the human race has be oppressed by vampires for centuries and now vampire hunters kill vampires to end the oppression.

The idea would be that technology has regressed to a mediaeval level.

Well, it wouldn't be the first time Castlevania has ripped something off.

Actually, if I'm not mistaken, the CV character Alucard was based off of Vampire Hunter D.  Or so I have heard.

I say let's start a new alternate timeline, this time with Sonia being the first Belmont to defeat Dracula.

Well someday we are gonna run outta places to put new games. They'll have to start an alternate reality at some point.

Or should we just keep going into the future until we successfully incorporate Nano Breaker into the mix?

Don't we already have an alternate timeline with CotM and CV64?

That's what I'm saying: expand on that one.

Ooooh... O.K.

Incorporating Legends into that would actually work because then you have the two alternate timelines setup depending on who was the first to defeat Dracula.

I'll admit, unless they tweak her story, I don't want to see Sonia in too much of any CV timeline.  I don't want her being Alucard's baby momma, and I don't want the Belmonts related to Dracula dagnabit!

Hopefully, only if Julius' son is the protagonist and the goal is to kill Alucard.

Now just say you hate Simon and you'll have your free ban ticket.

Btw, what is it that you dislike about him? His silly dialogue lines? His appearence?

The continue insistence about how cool he is, his horrible voice at Symphony of the Night, the tons of Alucard-based fanfics i've read, the continuous Alucard fanservice in every castlevania... shall i continue?

Seriously, actually i'm writing a fanfic placed 25 years before Aria of Sorrow, the CastleVania universe is opened and is relatively easy to create a new character and place him/her in that universe but, goddamn, Alucard is ALWAYS there.

Is tiring, and boring

PD: I simply LOVE Simon Belmont, he was the first Video Game character that i've controlled when i was 3 years old
