I've been watching a playthrough of MoF. It looks like how I thought it would, gameplay and visuals(gameplay I don't care for, visuals I find stunning). One interesting nod was the carousel in the Toy Maker's Funfair. The "riding animals" that you have to dodge as the carousel spins around are Medusa Heads, Behemoth(RoB) heads and Maneaters(AoS). There's also some sort of Lion head with bat wings for ears that I'm not sure if it's a nod to anything in particular.

I just completed the game 100%. Aside from a few flaws, I really enjoyed the game. Spoilers: I wish the game was longer and that there were more enemies. I'm not big on how many hits it takes to defeat most of the enemies. I really dislike how Simon was portrayed during the Dracula battle. Why even include him in the game if you're going to basically piss on him like that? He's Simon Belmont! In any, and every, canon, he should be treated with the utmost respect! All Belmonts should be! However, I like how Trevor/Alucard was portrayed, for the most part. It disappointed me that it didn't show Trevor/Alucard tell Simon that he was his father. And did anybody else think that the "Lost Soul" was either Satan or Zobek?

Carmilla was resurrected as the succubus. Satan was resurrected as the nightwatcher and Cornell was resurrected as the Forgotten One and then cursed as a Demon Lord. See the connection here? It's the lack of resources. They used the same voice actors.

Yes Cornell and The Daemon Lord were voiced by the same actor, but they did not use the same voice actors for the others. Jason Isaacs and Sally Knyvette (Carmilla) weren't even in MoF, and Alec Newman was The Night Watchman.

Why is Alucard able to survive sunlight in the ending but not when the demon lord exposes him to dawn?

I wondered this too, I don't think he found anything that made him impervious to sunlight.

Unless he can in bat form but I dunno.

Well Cox said he was not a regular vampire, as he had a reflection too. IDK, perhaps he becomes more human with time?

If I remember correctly, the reflection in the sword thing was said by cox to be more due to the sword being a "special one" rather than him not being a regular vampire.

In fact, I really don't recall him saying he was not a regular vampire, maybe I missed it but I only recall him saying that Alucard wields a special sword in LOS2 which is why he had a reflection in it.

It sounds more like a error of continuity to me, atleast I didn't noticed it until mentioned here, maybe they dont too?

Well they didn't seem to remember the part about vampirism being voluntary from the first game so why not another continuity error?

Having just finished this game, I have to say I really enjoyed it. Just wish it was longer.

Only thing I'm miffed about is how Simon seemed like such a side-character. I mean, they made Trevor into a total badass, but Simon just seemed like Trevor's derpy son that only got in the way during the final battle.

I just wish they would make a mirror of fate 2 where Simon really gets a chance to shine. Too bad he's already 36 in this timeline.
