Chaos.
If a man chooses, and a slave obeys, then what are you if you choose to obey?

Dead.
If I forgot "everything I knew about Castlevania" I certainly wouldn't be excited about a new one coming out now would I?

I find it hilarious that out of all us fans that share the same general consensus about cv, there's only like 2 or 3 people that think it's "doing great."  :rollseyes:


Good job, Konami.

Foggy.

There's potential, but uncertainty at the same time.  Lords 2 could really (really) hit the spot, if Cox and MS can answer some criticisms . . . but what of the classic-style, and what for the future? Uncertainty, but potential.

LOS timeline: promising.

Original timeline: dead.

The franchise overall: neglected (see lack of content for 25th anniversary).
