Castlevania Harmony of Dissonance secret or glitch?

[Polgani]

I'll explain it to you: According to the series the Vampire Killer is a sacred whip that hurts anything that is related with evil forces, it even hurts them just by touching the whip. So I guess they wanted to do some realism with this. And well you know, the zombies are one of the weakest enemy species within the series, so only a simple touch of the whip is enough to kill them.

@Polgani that explains a bit more, but they die when they come in front of you if you dont move the whip? please explain.

[Polgani]

@ThePooman101 No, they won't die in that case, they'll damage you. Because they're not touching the whip, they're touching you. I hope everything is clear now :)

[ThePooman101]

@Polgani ... no take this as an example: 0:08 - 0:17. I hold the whip infront of me, the zombies walk into thin air, the whip gets a little POW thingy on it and the zombie dies from touching nothing. That is cool, but I still want to know why. Maybe the game thinks that im shaking the whip crazily like after 0:17?

[Polgani]

@ThePooman101 No, it happens because the programmers were too lazy to add realism to that, so they made an "invisible box" around the whip that outlines it a lot, and that "box" is what damages the zombies.

[ThePooman101]

@Polgani ah. thanks. so its a glitch.

[Polgani]

@ThePooman101 Actually, is not. Because is made intentionally

[sensitivebeat]

it is not a glitch, if you try to do that on any other enemy, it wont work because they are too strong.

[sensitivebeat]

nooooob stop being dumb, Juste can do this, so what?

[ThePooman101]

@sensitivebeat Not hold out his whip. How many times do I have to say I mean that he can kill things with his whip on the floor!!!!!!! IM ANNOYED. >:(

[sensitivebeat]

@ThePooman101 thats because the zombies are so weak that the minimal damage the held out whip does kills them dumbass....

[ThePooman101]

@sensitivebeat ...

you don't make ANY sense.

[sensitivebeat]

@ThePooman101 ok, when the whip is in the floor, it still deal minimal damage to enemies that touch it. zimbies and the only enemy that have low enough health, that the damage dealt by the whip being on the floor kills them

you are probably too stupid to understand anyways :/

[bigbloodsucker]

its not a glitch or secret lol.your can do that with any belmont.

[ThePooman101]

@bigbloodsucker ... you mean, if i keep my whip out with simon on super castlevania IV then it will still kill things EVEN IF I DONT MOVE IT SO IT DANGLES DOWN? i would love an explanation video.
