I liked Mirror of Fate despite its flaws but I will be annoyed if the HD version has no additional features -_- then it will come off as lazy.

Hopefully it will have the supposedly "Console quality models" used in the dev version.

Everything comes full circle

Not only that but also fix some of the flaws of Mirror Fate. The over abundance of Quick time events I mean two bosses Battles of Trevor (which I consider the better gameplay section of the game) is all quick time events which is some bs despite the coolness of them. Also I heard they cut sections of the game. They should include them because the game was a short ten hours compared to Lord of Shadow 20 hours. Devil May Cry 3 is great example of a re-release of a game with a extra character.

A HD release for a game is good when it is critically acclaimed. Mirror of Fate was not critically acclaimed and this is a opportunity for them to make some improvements. I am not holding breath but it doesn't mean I won't be disappointed if they don't add additional features. -_-.

They also need to fix the overabundance of checkpoints and the overall lack of difficulty. I mean, I know it was a portable title but come on.
It is precisely because it never cared, that people do care.  It's something which it's lacking, because that which it has, it has lackluster of.

People don't really like hard games anymore for thr most part.

Still it'd be nice to be able to play MoF without having to buy another system. I'm just catching up on Rebirth and Judgment thanks to emulation.

And the majority of today's generation of gamers are nothing but a bunch of spoiled little kids why?

That is fine have normal mode with check points and quick time events. But there should be option for hard mode which cancels them all out.

odd leak? They stated the HD version was finished when the 3ds version was released, on top of that Cox retweeted the Playasia Link to the Collection...

Vengo del curro y estoy muy cansado como para traducir al ingles.
Si hay algun alma piadosa que traduzca si no pues aqui queda en español.

1) Si, tendremos versión de MoF HD por separado (económica 9,90), pero saldrá con retraso con respecto a esta versión (espero que reculen y no la pongan a la venta, me parece un insulto).
2) No vale la pena comprar este pack (si sale a la venta finalmente)... es de risa, tendremos con casi toda seguridad una versión completa o definitiva en 1 año que contendrá LOS1, MoF HD y LOS2 (si sale en mas de un año incluirá los DLC de LOS2, sino tendremos otra versión).

En resumen, pude que me compre el MoF HD por separado o puede que directamente me espere a la edición definitiva de Steam y rebajada (porque el MoF ya lo jugue en 3DS, lo acabe y no me llamo mucho la atención, no me muero si no lo tengo, lo considero un juego de regalo).

Saludos..

P.D. Entiendo los motivos comerciales de esta versión maximizando el interés generado por LOS2 pero creo que han sobrepasado el limite de lo abusivo (si es que la sacan finalmente, ERROR) ¿una edición coleccionista con una demo? venga...., eso si, económicamente es un chollo para ellos.

Summary: bergaron is angry, he thinks they should not release a "collection" of 2 mere games and a demo and they are doing it because they are greedy, also, they'll surely release the "Complete Pack" one year from now with LoS2 DLC included.

Also, MOF will come out separately (but late) at 9,90 euros.

I'll get MoF HD, since I'm getting LoS and LoS2.

The description at the link:

"Departing from the contemporary take of the 2d exploratory "Metroidvania" format, this is a true Castlevania adventure."
 :rollseyes:

How stupid is that? In many ways...

Anyway, this collection seems like a scam. Even for LoS fans. Why not wait until LoS 2 is released?
I see it like: "Hey, let's steal a little more money from people before we are done with this s**t, and let's try to fool a few more players who we still didn't fool and don't know how the games are".

And meanwhile, a collection from the main timeline remains unreleased.
Now I'm tired, eternally walking... forever dying, and never stopping. I feel in sorrow, all I see is white. I’m following a blind way beneath a sad sky.

Yes, I see it in that way too and we really need a collection that comes with more titles than Dracula X Chronicles.

Absolutely.
What a waste of resources...
