How did it feel rushed and thrown together?

The story progresses slowly up until that point. We are given a little at a time about walter, his stone, finally finding sarah building the vk, etc. All of which I thought were very well thought out and well done. Then we kill walter and out of nowhere mathias comes down, Says a few words, goes away and we fight death. I mean it's like Iga ran out of money and was like, alright guys I need a way to end the game in less than 5 minutes, somebody come up with the shortest cheapest answer they can find. for something as epic as the beginning of of a 2000 year struggle against evil the last few cut scenes should have been much more elaborate and drawn out. Maybe with like Leon actually thinking he killed Mathias. Then mathias materializes out of the smoke and escapes or something. It just could have been done so much better with what we are given in the rest of the game. I felt no sympathy for him for one when I got to that point because I knew nothing about his character. other than the fact that he was a whiny brat who threw his religion and entire life away to kill people because his wife died of sickness. Besides if he only wanted to be immortal since mortality is "decread by God" to him what's the point of gaining anymore power? I just don't think the ending was really thought through and was more of a last minute thing because they were running out of money.

what if he went insane from the loss, not just threw a temper tantrum like some people try to guess?

also leon wouldn't be able to fight him since it'd contradict cv3's "first battle between a belmont and dracula" thing. that was one of the reasons for which legends was kicked out of the timeline.

So change Leon's last name slightly so that the Belmonts were descended from his noble bloodline, man. Would it have killed anyone to think outside the box?

He wouldn't be a Belmont then. That would diminish his awesomeness.

Sephiroth sucks.

Dracula..... well I guess he does seem pathetic, trying to destroy the world and losing to a man. ONE MAN! almost every time. Kind of sucks... But then again, I don't want this series to turn into a TBS or RTS or like JRPG, so I'm happy with how it currently is.

That haircut and surcoat combination did more to castrate his awesomeness factor than any name change could have. And then he went and spoke in English, and... well... That was the end of that.

At least Leon is a real man and didn't chop his dick off.

Hey, man, Richter felt guilty about being brainwashed by the dark side. Cut him some--! I-I mean, go easy on him. It's not like he went totally off his nut and committed seppuku you know.

It doesn't matter if they are normal or not. The fact is that, he's losing to a person. There are bound to be atleast 20 others with roughly the same amount of power if not more in the world. That's a modest number considering the number of people in the world.

Not as much as the Chronicles remake did to simon though, I mean pink hair? Don't even exist in nature. Didn't know people could die their hair in 1691.

I love how people call his hair pink even though it's clearly red. It's always the same crap. "PINK HAIR HURR HURR S&M HURR HURR". So he has red hair. So what? I really don't understand what's so bad about it. Other than the red hair, he's very similar to CV1 Simon.

The shoulder-long hair is probably the issue, but if that's all you're going on when calling someone effeminate, then wow, you must have had some peculiar dates in your life.

I actually like the Chronicles design for Simon a lot better than the original. At least now he looks a bit more like a nobleman and not a barbarian. I could understand Simon looking like a barbarian if he were the first Belmont(chronologically) in the clan, before they gained their noble status but he isn't so thats why I think the newer design works.

But I do enjoy the CV1 Simon look. It shows just how much more badass Castlevania can be!
