Topic: Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia *** NO SPOILERS

[Long John Silver]

well the eclair base is known, so is monastery. from the screenshots there's also a clocktower, some kind of shore with the pirate ship, caves, village, some desert area and skull/skeleton caves. probably forgetting some.

castle keep is speculated, but seeing as it's iga and that dracula is already announced, it'll obviously be in.

I need to stop calling it the Master's Keep. I just play way too much N64 Castlevania...

Anyway, if we have 20...

-Ecclesia Base
-Monastery
-Forest
-Desert Ruins
-Outer Castle Place
-Ice Cave
-Beach with Pirate Ship
-Underwater Caves, which may be part of the beach level
-Normal Caves, which may be part of the desert level
-Castle Keep
-Skeleton Cave
-The Place with the Guillotine
-The place where you fight the giant skeleton with the searchlight things

Some of those may be the same levels as others, as this is all guess work.

I guess there's a lot of unknown areas. I wonder what IGA will pull.

How many areas did PoR have again? Could OoE be the largest CV yet?

[Bafeel]

PoR had 14 areas overall. 9 paintings and 5 castle areas (or 6 castle areas if you count the Throne Room).

I believe that they will be 20 different stages, including Dracula's castle, that it will count as 1 stage and not 5 stages, because it has an arena, a castle keep or other places, it will still count as one. That's what i believe they meant by telling 20 explorable stages.

[Long John Silver]

If we count all the dark/evil/reversed/B versions of the areas, Sotn had around 27.

From what I recall, the Village is confirmed to be a location. Also, the other area with the search light glyph looks like a Lighthouse.

I just want to know why people still think IGA directs the games when he hasn't for eleven years. He has no bearing on what levels they put in.

I don't know. I bet they just want someone to blame if something goes wrong, like they did when Judgment was first announced.

That's true, but areas at OoE are supposed to be bigger, making the game play hours more than Symphony.

That's great. I just wish we knew more about it. I'm hoping for a demo to download onto my DS from the Nintendo Channel, but I know it won't happen.

They could have SO many cool areas in this game. I really think they should include one of the mansions from Simon's Quest (albeit bigger and more detailed), complete with a Dwelling of Doom remix 

[Gimph]

Everything looks so amazing! I definitely hope they make it as long as possible. All the levels, the enemies, the boss fights, the glyphs, everything looks perfect!

This game looks like it will be incredible!!!  I only hope that it is released this year.  Most likely early December for the US.  Then again, go through what we did with HoD.  Remember?  The release date for it kept changing.  Hopefully, it won't be like that.
