Topic: Lords of Shadow Sequel Ideas (spoilers...a lot of them)

Or they could use good 'ol KCET

Um... they ARE KCET.  I think you are confused.
KCEK did Circle of the Moon, Castlevania64 and Legacy of Darkness.
KCET did Symphony of the Night, Castlevania Chronicles port.
KCEN did the Saturn port of SotN and Castlevania Legends.

But all of this is just a history lesson, as none of those branches exist anymore.  Everything's been blended to the Tokyo branch (formerly KCET) and now it's just "Konami Digital Enternainment", I believe.

There are no more teams from different cities (Kobe, Tokyo, Nagoya, and... uuurgh... I forgot the last one) anymore, just one merge in the Tokyo branch.

[Alutwon]

yea i meant KCEK, thanks for the clarification 

[thernz]

iirc since PoR, CoTM members have been apart of IGA's team anyway.

[Jorge D. Fuentes]

Yeah, that's what I recall hearing as well.

Now we know that the DLC Title will return to "The Demon Castle" in addition to that we are shown Gabriel's transformation into "The Dragon" as he called himself in 1999 to Death. So we can assume that Gabriel's son is Dracula; as we can also assume and hope that the 2 DLC will cover his transformation into a Vampire Lord.

[corneliab]

Gabriel is Dracula.

Unless he had a son named Gabriel. Which was played by the same voice actor. With nothing at all suggesting as such.

[crisis]

Yeah, the concept artwork for him even confirms this.

You know that HD 2D game is not coming, EVER, even IGA dismissed that possibility in his last interview (Destructoid, E3 2010: "Don't hold your breath for it"). YOu know he's lazy, a lot, that AND (not OR) Konami won't let him having a big budget, not after Judgment and Despair.
If that game comes someday, I'm pretty sure it will be yet another external-developed Castlevania.

It would be awesome.

OK, OK, OK! We ALL get it, you hate IGA. 

[Ahasverus]

It's not hate. It just facts. Sorry but it's true.

Iga says:
"I create a new gameplay idea (read: Gimmick) and then I slap the story I seem appropiate for it"

Iga says:
"I actually don't like story"

If that's your idea of a super producer, good for you, for me, it's a shame.

[thernz]

because story makes a game instead of elements that the player can actually interact with.

You have done nothing but gripe about IGA in every topic.  I understand that you LOVE LoS, and are not fond of IGA's efforts.  So, please, by all means, buy up all future MercurySteam titles in the franchise and quit playing the others that you so clearly hate.

For the 4589174598476th time, it's not that I hate them, it's just that they could be soooo much better, in few words, they LACK AMBITION. That's it.

Ok, I shouldn't put words in your mouth like "hate".  It just appears to me that you are so enveloped in your own idea of what these games SHOULD be instead of enjoying them for what they are, as the developers intended.  Anyone can point out a flaw in a game, and we should from time to time, otherwise there would really be nothing to talk about.  

It is unfair to compare IGA's Castelvanias to MercurySteam's because they are completely different not just in (the often touted) budget difference but the cultural atmosphere they are developed in as well.

I found this cool image of Olrox and Brauner together. I liked the concept of those 2 being brothers and all. Makes me think, it would be cool to hav a boss battle in the next game where you fight/juggle two strong bosses at once. Kind of like the one in Devil May Cry 3 with the 2 headless swordsman.

Maybe we will fight Slogra and Gaibon together, or Death and Drac/Gabriel. Aargh, now the long wait for the sequel!

[crisis]

*bump*

Now that the game has been out for a while, any new ideas on what the sequel should be like??
