Don't you see? THAT'S THE FUCKING 1999!! TAHT'S WHY IT'S CALLED THE DEMON CASTLE WARS NOT THE DRACULA CASTLE WARS!!
Gabriel have been Dracula AAAAAAALLLL the fucking Time.... Mathias? just a disguise, the ebony stone? bullshit, Death? only another necromancer or anything like that.... Dracula can't die BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT H WISHED WITH ITS WISH... and, wait a minute, how did he DIE?? you know when... 1999!!!

THIS GAME IS CANNON IS FUCKING CANON HOLY MOTHER OF GOD!!! AWSOMEEE!!!

SPOILERs (of course)

I don't know if I liked that ending at all. If they just retcon LoI, then the entire timeline will fit. I wouldn't mind, LoI sucked. But really, that ending was ridiculous. No Death? Zobek being the bad guy was so predictable that I hoped that they wouldn't do that. Also, what about him hiding in the shadows? Has Dracula just been sitting their for 1000 years, or did the rest of the timeline happen? Its so ambiguous its terrible. I'm quite disappointed in the ending.

That ending was such a complete and utter mind fuck, but besides that, this was a god awful reboot. I'm VERY interested in seeing what that ending leads to but I  have no desire to purchase or play this game anymore.

It's just a very wacky game in general.

NO NO NO you don't get it!
He's not there sited by 2000 years, he's just "resurrected" as usual because that's the "usual" 1999 resurrection! Death wasn't there yet, light will be shed soon I think... Zobek has been there all the time but he didn't interfere, he didn't mind about Drac until Satan would be resurrected (or brought back to the living world). The DEMON castle Wars are about the whole world fighting SATAN, Dracula dies at the end? Sure, but that's because ZOBEK promised him that, we just sought that!... my God this  game is awesome, noe THE TIMLINE ACTUALLY HAS SENSE! 

Premature resurrections?. Explained.
"Death" working for a man?. Explained.
Why does Dracula dies at the end of 1999 and wahy that battle was different to all the others?. Explained.
Why Dracula calls himself Dracula?. Explained.

Honestly this is probably going to go in an entirely new direction.

Also we should have seen this coming since the beginning, and many already did. Gabriel isn't even a real Belmont, he's a bastard son of the Cronqvist family. His bio/origin gave away the ending.

Heh, I agree. And that battle with the Dracolich was terrible. It was so freaking long and boring and an obvious rip off of the flying colossus in the desert from SotC.

Unfortunately I only got to start watching the stream during the Necromancers Abyss part. The platforming actually looked really fun, but the boss battles were too long and were not very exciting. The bosses should just be made harder by making them more likely to kill you rather than giving loads of health. And checkpoints during a boss battle is just ridiculous. If you need to add check points to a boss battle, its way, way too long.

So CLOS tells the story of how Dracula came to be,origins of Dracula? and at the end of the game he is resurrected "Castlevania style"? into modern times, and that means another Belmont has to go kick his ass again.I am not privy to Castlevania canon,but if this game has anything to do with the 1999 scenario? it makes perfect sense to me,or am I wrong, somebody please elaborate.This also means that Alucard is a Belmont?

Do want to be spoiled? If so...


The bad guy this time is Satan. Gabriel defeats him claiming he can repent, but apparently he can't, and he becomes Dracula. Cut forward about 1000 years and he is apparently hiding in a church, and Zobek approaches him telling him that Satan is about to return. So if this is being tied into the 1999 game, it will be Belmonts VS Dracula/Gabriel and Zobek VS Satan.

Why the hell did they have to put Satan in the game...

were did you get the idea of Alucard being a belmont?
even if this game was part of the OFFICIAL canon Gabriel only took the name of belmont and WASN'T a REAL Belmont but instead the son of a Cronqvist

If Gabriel really was a Belmont, and he became Dracula, then Alucard would be a Belmont. I also didn't know that Gabriel wasn't a real Belmont so I can understand the confusion.

but he ISN'T a real Belmont thats pretty much confirmed at this point lol
he took the name of Belmont and is said to be from the Cronqvist family instead

Not only will Gabe/Drac have to worry about his kin folk killing him,he also has to deal with Satan as well?that is flippin awesome!I wonder how they are gonna tie Alucard in with this.

I know that now. But when we made our previous statements, we didn't know that.

or you not reading the above comments?
GABRIEL ISN'T a REAL BELMONT
and thus his "kin folk" as you put it won't be killing him
it really doesn't matter since this game is confirmed none canon but i still feel to need to post stuff regarding it lol
