Funny, when I think about it, Aria was the ONLY non Belmont metroidvania that game the character a whip weapon they could use.

Symphony didnt, Dawn didnt, and OoE didnt.

I dont know if CoD did, did it?

on a related note, there is an item in the underground caves in Symphony, around the boat/ferryman section, that gives you a shit ton of gold. lik3, 1000 or something. I could never entirely make out what it was though, but It vaguely looked like the vampire killer whip icon, the ones you get in other games to power up the whip.

was it?

Daniella? It's implied her grandfather was one of the main Belmont heroes. Possibly Richter, though that would put Ecclesia in the mid-late 1800's.

People are gonna hate us all for filling this thread with Order of Ecclesia talk. But one more thing:

The village needed "Silence of Daylight" music. Such a wasted opportunity!

LOL, you're kidding right?

Not one bit. I know it might be baffling to some, but IGA's last few games are nothing like the Castlevanias I played when I was a kid, save for some recycled sprites and name dropping.

That's funny: it sounds exactly like LoS.

I didn't know LoS had any recycled sprites in it.

theres nothing more to talk about in regards to Mirror, till we get some info.

well actually, if you put in the konami code, you get a little CV2 Simon Belmont sprite above your light magic bar, which mimics your actions. It's kinda cute.

Ehm nope? LoS is a translation of the Old Basic formula IMO

It bums me how almost no one tlaks about this.
I cried tears of tenderness when I saw it =3

The Belmont surname couldn't have been lost, or else where would Julius come from

besides, it was Eric that said the Belmonts had to give it to the Morris' (still related) because they couldn't touch it until 1999, when Dracula would be at his strongest ever. So there should've been a Morris relative (presumably Quincy's father) making an appearance in OoE. But perhaps they were still training behind the scenes or whatever.

Albus Morris would've been a good fit.

I'm going to need to try that, lol

I was talking about the name dropping, the gameplay is everything, but Castlevania. The sceneries were a lot good, though.

I found that out right before I sold my copy. Isn't it actually Simon's sprite from the original Vampire Killer?

You mean you didn't recognize the candles dropping hearts/items everywhere? The wall meat? The medusa heads & mermen? All the references Harmony of Dissonance had to past games (there are literally dozens)? The maoi heads, "Julius Mode," etc.

And hey, the classic games recycled sprites, too.

Really?

Flame do you know how to do this on the 360 or anyone I did the K-code at one point but it seems that it did not work. I do want simon on the screen.
