Topic: I knew it! Castlevania: Lords of Shadow!(SPOILERS HERE, PLZ USE THE SPOILER TAG)

[shelverton.]

1:Prologue
2:Labyrinth(Prboably Pan's)
3:Labyrinth 2
4:Mountain Fortress
5:Isolated Village
6:Vampire Castle
7:Vampire Castle 2
8:Vampire Castle 3
9:BabaYaga's cottage
10:Necromancer's Abyss
11:Nercomancers Abyss 2
12:Necromancers Abyss 3

And the levels all have diffrent chapters within.

Interesting... so after the prologue (which should be the village and the horse back riding) we're off to a labyrinth... Unless the "Isolated village" is what we saw in the E3 gameplay demo? Nah, it's probably the prologue.
Also, the "Vampire Castle" could very well be Carmilla's castle or something. I still think that the gameplay footage we've seen from the castle is most likely NOT from "THE" Castle, but probably from an earlier castle. Just because we've seen the clock tower which usually is in the final levels of games doesn't mean it's like that here. Again, Dracula's Curse had a clock tower very early on.

Exactly. The clock tower dosen't always have to be part of the castle. CVIII (and to some extent, CoD too) had a clock tower that wasn't attached to the castle. It could just be a random building somewhere.

[Pemburu Vampir]

Remember the room with spining gears and another room with pendulums in CV3 final stage?

I think that might be a clock tower connected to the castle keep.

[Jorge D. Fuentes]

CV3 had two clock towers... double your pleasure!  One early on with Grant and then Dracula's Castle's clocktower by his keep.
And then, in DraculaXX the clock tower is over the water with a bridge, similar to CV3 (cv3's clocktower bridge breaks after you rescue Grant).

WOW nice tip Master Fuentes!

"Master" Fuentes? Your sucking up knows no limits, does it?

[Kale]

Seriously dude? He's probably just commenting on how much Jorge knows. Geez, get a hold of yourself man!

[Ahasverus]

You don't know who Jorge really is (and I'm not talking about being the admin of this board), do you? :sigh:

I was wondering, if the game has hidden rooms in the levels, will there be some hidden bosses too? Like legion in COD ?

Hahahahaha. How little you know.

[DingusBelmondo]

Fighting on the internets!!!! Castlevania guys. We are here for the castlevania.

[Jorge D. Fuentes]

UZO, they also know me for a while, because of the music.  Not as long as you do though (I don't think).
I think he said "Master" is because of the art & music & whatnot.

I will say though, that it's not necessary.  Just Jorge will do.

Exactly! Master Fuentes has made a lot of CV-related things, incluiding amazing music arrangements, sprites, artwork and some projects as the CVIII remake etc.. He also has an unbelieveable CV collection incliuding rare japan only limited objects, and, hey, he knows a lot, really a lot about the saga. He's, along with Mr P, jpCVfan (the original, not my twitter acount -I swear it was coincidence-) and Genya Arikado, one of the most notable CV fans around the world.

And, hey, what is the problem after all?

[Munchy]

I was wondering, if the game has hidden rooms in the levels, will there be some hidden bosses too? Like legion in COD ?

Hmm... that would be cool and, considering Cox's saying that the game opens up for more exploration, highly likely.

I'm curious as to how branching paths will work - like Rondo of Blood, where you have to search for them and they go to different stages, or like Dracula's Curse, where you have a choice of where to go after a stage is beaten. Or would they be like Legends or Lament, where they're mostly dead ends with nifty power ups?

[Ahasverus]

I'm thinking LOS has a OOE-ish map, with you going back to some locations to reach new ones with new abilities. If I remember correctly, OOE had a secret are didn't it? Where you fight the chinese vampire sor something like that
I also think that, as you say, there will be dead ends with secret items, like breakable walls in the metroidvanias with heart/health power ups
