Like I said, I understand why Drac would quote the Bible, but it didn't fit the situation. Had it been a Belmont he was fighting, I'd have no problem with it.

Redrawn sprites for Richter, and a fleshed out storyline for him, including weapon/armor power-ups and a level-up system.

(With a completely new boss fight to end the game and show how he succumbs to Shaft's control...)
Yes, Richter should've had his own story. I don't understand why IGA never aimed to do such a thing for him and Trevor in CoD. IGA kinda gave a story to DoS's Julius mode. Richter's adventure COULD'VE easliy been him exploring Castlevania's reappearance, 1796, leading up to his fall to Shaft's mind control. That would've been badass! And yeah, it would've been cool if he actually had a menu, and equipable whips.

Dracula quoting the Bible after his defeat was awesome! Dracula was very religious before he became evil.


Umm he doesn't in the japanese dub, I just beat it and there was no bible quote in there. He asks Alucard a question (retorical) instead, and says his situation is poetic.  :)

Same effect, I like the fact he quotes the bible, especially since hes supposed to be part of the crusade back way when.

I like it better w/out the quote personally as he is supposed to be against god and the quote in there makes it seems like he respects his or has some admiration which we know isn't true.

Dracula's being sarcastic, not reverant.  He even explicitly says so right before he quotes the Bible, hence "Ah...scarcasm..."  He took Alucard's previous words as sarcasm and so lashed back with a sarcastic remark of his own.  The point is that Dracula doesn't believe in what that Bible quote was saying.  By stating the opposite in a tone of sarcasm, Dracula is underscoring his actual beliefs.

I think its biggest flaw is its difficulty.  So, I would change that, if it can be counted as one thing.

only lack of a near perfection game

Definitely would've increased the difficulty and dracula would have warped his cell into his normal castle Keep area, y'know keeping it normal. I didn't really care for the whole dracula on a floating throne, that should have been a painting somewhere in the castle or a statue.
