the fact that the menu is a book is like Castlevania 64.

[Munchy]

The sound effects of battle I've heard in trailers (whipping, monsters dying and stuff) are incredibly awesome and satisfying, just like in CV4.

What? Don't tell me you didn't love the sound of whipping the floating eyes or of whipping the poltergeist furniture.

SLOGRA! for the WIN!  :-D

Metal Gear Solid Jingle, when you're trying to sneak into the Cook's Kitchen.

Best song on the soundtrack.

Haha! Dorin just can't catch a break. In PoR he's attacked by vampires, too. What a loser.

[Apolake]

I'm not sure if it's just me or it was intentional but I think there was a shoutout to Castlevania Resurrection in the game, one of the dead knight is named Victor.

[Jorge D. Fuentes]

That's right, I noticed that.

[Ascension]

Was that the dreamcast game that got shut down?

[Kale]

yup

[Harrycombs]

I'm not sure if it's just me or it was intentional but I think there was a shoutout to Castlevania Resurrection in the game, one of the dead knight is named Victor.

Victor is a pretty common name. Do you think it was intentional? If it is thats a great Easter egg.

[Jorge D. Fuentes]

I think it was intentional.
They 'could have' used Victor to describe Frankenstein... but they didn't. They chose a different name for the old mad scientist.  Instead they chose it for one of the warriors.

Oh, in the Necromaner's Area, there are a lot of portals you jump into and out of.  The description reads "..hundreds of mirrors that can transport you anywhere; such is the so-called 'Apreture Magic' from the Necromancers".  It's a direct reference to Portal from the Orange Box, as the name of the technology for the Portal Gun comes from "Aperture Science". xD

[Dremn]

They pulled a Portal reference? That's pretty funny.

[Jorge D. Fuentes]

Two actually.  They mentioned "The cake is not a lie" in another scroll (I posted it earlier).
