the wintery village kinda reminds me of Wraithmarsch in Fable II. Except not at all. Though when I was playing through Fable II, I was kinda amazed at how scary Wraithmarsch was, and that no 3D Castlevania has ever managed to come close to that. It's like the scariest place in any videogame IMO. Also, the winter lodge moment, if anyone remembers that. CREEPY!
Anyway, the new screens look great. Cannot wait. Though pushing that statue towards the hole seems like a bad idea. The hole is too small!
