DoctorStrangelove posted:I think they put the seals in because DoS was an early DS game and I think Nintendo was putting pressure on people to use the touch screen as much as possible, even forcing it into games that don't really fit. I don't mind the seals as much as rubbing the poo poo out of the screen to remove ice blocks.

i liked circle of the moon on the gba. game is rock hard but awesome. also curse of darkness was a really fuckn good 3d castlevania and lament of innocence was pretty ok too. i'm pretty sure harmony of despair is garbage but i like it anyway

People always say OoE and CotM are the hardest but I've never played CotM. OoE is my favorite game ever so I think it might be time to play CotM.

I'm playing CotM now and it is definitely my kind of game. I'll never understand why they removed running as a basic ability, legit platforming and enemies that actually deal a decent amount of damage from castlevania games after this one.

I thought it would be super slow but it's not because they give you a run button 5 minutes into the game. I don't really know what game I'd compare it to yet.

i haven't played a lot of the older games, but i haven't played any other castlevania like it. it's probably the most methodical metroidvania and you have to be pretty in control of your character and aware of what enemies are doing if you don't want to die all the time forever

Another thing later Castlevania games took out for no reason: a continue button after dying. This goat boss is cool and also really hard.

Circle of the Moon had one of the more interesting bosses Castlevania III is cool since you get to pick your BFF I usually pick the wizard, but the pirate and Alucard are cool too.

I have that GBA castlevania two pack that came with the first two GBA games on it. I bought it when it was 10 dollars and I looked at the price now.

Evil Eagle posted:i'm going to play every mode. you unlock them in order. beating one mode unlocks the next one. it goes vampirekiller-->magician-->fighter-->shooter-->thief vampirekiller is the normal mode. magician gives you really high magic and all the dss cards but super lovely defense and strength. fighter gives you really high strength and defense but you cant use magic. shooter gives you a ton of hearts for subweapons but you're super weak and fragile. thief gives you crazy luck so items drop like crazy but you're really weak and fragile there otherwise.

5 including the base vanilla mode. when you clear the first time it'll give you a password that alters your stats a lot to change the playstyle. like there's a mode where subweapons do crazy damage and you have a crazy amount of hearts (and you get a unique subweapon)

So that's why there are so many save files. I think this is going to end up being my second favorite castlevania game.

every guide ive found on harmony is incredibly vague. the best help ive had are these maps that show where everything is but then i find out in-game im missing something or there's a door/wall where the maps say it should be open. the gently caress
