Hey everybody! I have released my new album 'Progenitor' which has electronic music inspired by great games such as the Castlevania series. You can check it out and download it for free on my youtube channel if you're interested!
Good music, great graphics, good gameplay, but lets be honest. castlevania should NOT be remembered as using the same game type as metroid. I WANT THE CLASSIC 2-D STAGE BY STAGE BACK!!!
@psycholink44 The thing about stage by stage is that there is absolutely no exploration in it.
You simply keep moving forward till you reach the end and kill the last boss,like Metal Slug.
With Exploration you get to find hidden items,enjoy Dracula's castle waaay more,hidden rooms,backtracking,leveling up..all that good stuff that pulls you back for more.
@SolBuster im saying castleania 2 games like are ok and the exploration ideas are ok, but lets see here,castlevania 1,3,4,rondo of blood,bloodlines,X, are the first castlevania games (not counting castlevania 2) and use the stage-by-stage and it suits it better than metroidvania IMO
The old games were fine.The stage by stage was cool and all.
But a next gen Castlevania game cannot be stage by stage.
Making an official Castlevania stage by stage game now-a-days with current gen graphics and the great possibilities of the PS3/360 won't really make a CV game that impressive.
Stage by stage is fine,but it also gives it that "Arcade" feel to it.
It won't be as "epic proportions" as exploring Dracula's Castle in explorations.
@psycholink44 You also gotta understand that stage by stage would also make the game A SHIT TON shorter.
Also,like I said on my previous post,stage by stage should be left for hand held.
I know you all adore the classics,but many people hated the ackward stage-by-stage character movement.Every character moved and jumped like they had a stick up their ass.
Sorry to sound like a broken record,but a next gen stage-by-stage CV just won't be as "epic" as a.....let's say.....a Symphony of the Night 2.
@SolBuster Metrovania is actually a term that the long-term fans use. It started with SotN. The gameplay is basically the same as metroids, not that thats a bad thing :)
i love this game. i have beat it, and have a awsome second file( due to action replay of courseXD) this game is hard to complete,but it is worth every second of time i put into it.
@robloxfan459 I beat it and got 100% on everything (except items, just glyphs and maps) and am currently getting my ass handed to me in the prison on hard >_>
Oh yea... if you look at the picture, it kinda represents the fact that probably Albus and Shanoa are going through "different paths through fate" or something like that, as if they both have the same mission, but are going their seperate ways...
if you think about it, by the time this music plays at dracula's castle, she's beaten a ton of other bosses: Goliath, the crab boss at the lighthouse, the baby-faced lobster at the monastery (lol), even ALBUS (at mystery manor). she's basically INVINICBLE!!1 very powerful...
The song is great, not so good if you compare it with another great songs from the series, but what really rules is that it's the first song on dracula's castle but it starts to play once you enter at the main garden i think, and when you think the game is almost over suddenly you are just at the middle of it.
O,holy Ctulhu!This is not just bad...this is terrible!This is not music for the Castlevania.This piece of shit-a perfect soundtrack for a masturbating drunken rabbids.
this song makes me feel like going in there and help shanoa kick ass! i will b vic danasty and will b the son of grant himself. i will b able 2 scale walls and ceilings like spider man
Simple ripping is easy. Just play the music in-game and connect the headphone jack to your mic port on your computer and hit record all the way until it's finished/loops.
That's not a tattoo on her back, it's a birthmark!!!

Then this song plays. The final dungeon of the game: Dracula's Castle. It doesn't get more epic than this.

psycholink44 1 year ago
@psycholink44 Fine,make a next-gen game with a stage-by-stage gameplay.
Watch it fail from getting boring and repetitive after the first 2 weeks.
The only way a next-gen Castlevania will be a success is if it has that epic feeling of exploration and freedom.
And stop calling it Metrovania,it's not the same.
You only compare it to Metroid because it has the same 2D exploration method.
