so who here is actually gonna play LoS when it comes out?

[GuyStarwind]

I'm sure I will at some point. However, I'm not going to jump up and buy it the day it comes out.

[Dremn]

Meh. If someone I know has it I'll give it a shot. :/

so who here is actually gonna play LoS when it comes out?

i'll most likely rent it.
any idea how long it would take to beat it?
depending on how long i may just rent it for 2 to 5 days

[Apolake]

I am getting a free copy of the game so I'll definitely gonna be playing it.

[Thunderbrand]

I have the LE on preorder so I'll be getting it 1st thing Tuesday and playing it right away. Even though I have the guide and now the ending has been revealed, it still won't ruin the experience for me. I've been waiting for what seems like forever for a new-gen CV and now that it's here I'm gonna be all over it 

[Oralox]

I try not to read so much stuff here now that the game is beaten over the stream.
I really don't know whats going on but I am still getting this game.

[Kingshango]

Im still getting this game, the ridiculiousness must be experienced on my HDTV.

[ZenTzen]

I'm getting it

[Kingshango]

Also, I may be the only one thinking this but after that whole "revelation", does anyone else get the feeling that the sequel will be a Legacy of Kain/Blood Omen type game?

if we play another Belmont maybe not

[Foffy]

if we play another Belmont maybe not

Will it be a real one this time?

[DarkPrinceAlucard]

Will it be a real one this time?

if Cox makes another game as a sequel to LOS he BETTER have a REAL Belmont this time or ELSE!
lol but seriously should Cox make another CV game i think having a Belmont should be on his topi of to do list

[Ahasverus]

I don't know why you people are bitching, at least we have a very ipressive origin story, it's not that dracula was the most deep villain ever so it's fine this new direction. About the Belmonts, let's not speculate 'til we get the actual TOLD story, I'm sure Mr Alvarez Won't let this saga full of plot holes like some afro-crappy-japanese out there, stay cool

And I also don't understand why are you saying "this is not CV! where's my Castlevania!"
Know why? Because almost nothing that makes castlevania a Castlevania EXISTS yet in this story, there's no Death (It's not created yet with Necromancer's powers) no Castle (the real one you know, because Gabriel ends being GOOD we don't know how the transformation occurs and what he does to build his dark fortress). I mean, ther's nothing yet, and that's GOOD, because for the first time ever DRACULA IS ACTUALLY POWERFUL and he CAN do things, unique to thim, do you understand my point? I mean, if the "CV staples" were there in LOS that means Dracula's powers are just a rehash of the powers of the old lords, the abscence of this is the first proof oof Drac's power in ALL Cv timeline, he created a LOT of dark by himself, and that's something (I always hated how Celia could build and Exact castlevania replica with bosses and all, I mean, really? if she can do that, why does she need Drcula? damn...).

And for you asking how does this fit in the timeline, it seems that final's scene is modern times, or near modern, so it's perhaps 1999; Zobek tells him that if he stops Satan he would let him free of inmortality, we know that Dracula is killed in 1999 for the first time ever so that's maybe because of Zobek's promise, oh, and also the wars are called the Demon castle Wars, not the Dracula's Castle wars (yeah, I know about the whole Akumajou Dracula thing but I'm sure this is not unrelated). And Demon=Satan, And we don't know the exact facts of that battle so many things could be said.

It makes sense to me, however I think konami won't make the 1999 game right away, because this is a reboot in one way or another, I think they will "re-tell" some of the old games (LOI, CVIII, SOTN?) but not in the tradiitonal way obviously, and this time in chronological order so "new fans" won't get lost.

Not near modern, but modern. It actually looks like NOW, which is a decade late from 1999. The fact that they don't say it's date means it could be anytime in the modern era, but doesn't mean it has to be 1999.

Actually, we DO know exact facts about the battle of 1999. We know Julius Belmont was the one who defeated Dracula, and sealed his soul/magic into the eclipse. We also know that the Hakubas helped. Of course, that was IGA's timeline. I still don't believe LoS takes place in IGA's canon.
