Expected that Time magazine cover that's the mirror, pretty disappointed in you OP That dude is p-loving dumb for that castlevania IV comment though. Also I liked the DS games more than the GBA

I'm going to go out on the limb and say only two of the Castlevania GBA games are good. Castlevania Double Pack and Circle of the Moon

Castlevania 2 and its cousin Zelda 2 had a lot of really good ideas that nobody has figured out how to make a great game with yet

Castlevania 2 might be one of the worst sequels to a good game ever. The original was amazing, and 2 had aspirations to be even better...but flopped big time. Grinding, complete lack of direction, abysmal translation, backtracking... Zelda 2, however, is even better than the original Zelda.

Also every GBA and DS Castlevania is Really Good™ and Symphony of the Night needs no explanation for its praise. But then there's the N64 games, and the Lords of Shadow series, and Castlevania IV... So many garbage games. These are all things we know already so here's something you might not: Kid Dracula (Famicom) is loving amazing and you should go play it right loving now.

Cyra posted:he's not wrong, the gba games are better than the nes games, which are not fun to play. castlevania 4 is though Eh, they're better, but the first 3 are a completely diff genre so they're barely comparable. I'd like to see Castlevania 4 style remakes of 2 and 3 though.

I guess if I'd played it before Lament and Aria I'd like it a lot better, but it really is a huge step back. ForeverSmug fucked around with this message at 11:20 on Oct 25, 2014 |

I think that game is some of the most overrated poo poo I've ever played. It's got good moments though, and I do regret lumping it in with such abominations as Lords of Shadow and Simon's Quest.

SCIV is an easy-as-gently caress tech demo for the SNES but I still enjoy the ride and it's music loving owns.

I never got why people bitch about c4 being easy when all it does is take the jank out of the nes games. Most of the difficulty is just through dumbass design issues that are only there because they didn't know any better at the time. "Castlevania doesn't have air control because it wants you to consider your jumps because it makes it more horror like..." No, that's not "why" it doesn't have air control any more than starcraft only letting you pick 12 dudes is to encourage Koreans to develop their wrist strength.

C4 makes the sub weapons kinda pointless because the whip can do everything better and you can kinda barrel through it which is the opposite of 1 and 3 (the best old games). its still fun but it kinda forgets what castlevania is and feels more generic. luckily the graphics were super badass when it came out so nobody cared.

Sometimes we learn to adapt and that's okay but that doesn't retroactively make it good. People make mistakes.
