Castlevania HD - Richter Chapter 10 Hard (w/ shortcut exploit)

[GeneralErlend]

Impressive, but you can't dodge this..... HYDROSTORM!

[FingerrFucked]

So.... what do you do....

[OtakuSage]

Unnecessary flipping is unnecessary

[shinstc]

@OtakuSage The way it's done in this video, certainly (shortly after this was recorded, I revised the technique a bit to flip towards The Count rather than away). But done appropriately, using somersault instead of a simple short hop increases the amount of time you have to inflict damage, making the fight a little shorter. Plus, it's a lot harder to screw up and you don't have to worry about the positioning nearly as much, so it's safer too.

[Fellowthread]

Do you have to hold the stick in a certain direction after you do the spin kick?

[shinstc]

@Fellowthread It's been a while and there are much faster and easier ways to glitch chapter 10 now, but if I recall correctly, you shouldn't be holding any directions while executing the spin kick. If you happen to hit the correct positioning, you'll be sucked into the wall automatically.

[ChedderMuncher]

all that for a megingiord -_-

[Dogfire45]

I didnt know Richter was such a badass lol ^_^

[2SMejia3]

how do you do the glitch with richter i dont know how

[professionalpoliwag]

Where do u get the rocket dash

[shinstc]

@professionalpoliwag Do you mean the slide kick? It's one of Richter's martial arts. It randomly drops from Chapter 2 chests (among others), I believe.

[professionalpoliwag]

@shinstc No that thing where you go like Up left down right + B that thing

[shinstc]

@professionalpoliwag That sounds like Tackle, another martial art. It's known to drop in Chapter 4.

[professionalpoliwag]

@shinstc normal or hard?

[shinstc]

@professionalpoliwag Not sure it matters. It's been a long time since I acquired them though, it would be best to do your own research in case my memory fails me.

[Viertel]

You may be able to use the glitch to bypass two bosses, but you have absolutely no control over your character.

Practice some more.

[shinstc]

@Viertel I never professed to being a good player. This video was made primarily to demonstrate the glitch.

ace

[ELMiguelitos]

yo thx yo i can see how glitch works wit richter now, i did it once but idk what i did, n yo how is ur castlevania text in japanese in ur menu?

[shinstc]

@ELMiguelitos I own a Japanese 360. Castlevania HD seems to use the console's hardware region to determine which logo to draw, regardless of what the system language is set to.

[TYS5ert]

@shinstc You're not the only one, I like the jap logo since it's the original.

[ssbmenvy]

so.. how is it done? just spinkick off the platform pl explain or sent me a gamefaqs link

[shinstc]

@ssbmenvy The glitch occurs when you land a spin kick in a way that you fall off the platform the moment the landing animation ends. The spacing for getting this position happens to roughly coincide with the right wall for a Sonic Boots-equipped Richter. There have been working theories on how to get the correct positioning more consistently since this video was made...
