Uzumaki
06.30.19 | Intend to get it, most likely if it goes on sale. Haven’t beaten Curse of the Moon, but I’ve enjoyed it so far. |
Gyromania
06.30.19 | They have that one bundle pack for PS4 eh? Rondo + Symphony. Would love to get it in the future |
Uzumaki
06.30.19 | You playing it on Switch? |
Gyromania
06.30.19 | Hell no lmao. The port for the Switch is an absolute disaster. Got it on PS4 as an early birthday gift. |
Slex
06.30.19 | Was excited to get it for Switch :/ |
Ashtiel
06.30.19 | i've never played a castlevania game but im enjoying the hell out of it. |
Saros
06.30.19 | Yeah, I was going to get it for Switch but held off on buying it after hearing how bad it was. I'm probably going to get Mario Maker 2 instead or play something out of my backlog. It's a shame, I was kinda hyped for it, but eh. |
Brabiz
06.30.19 | #1 game on my list to buy. Can’t really go wrong with this style of game. Even at it’s worst, the genre is great |
samwise2000
06.30.19 | Soundtrack is great too, believe its also by Michiru Yamane |
Gyromania
06.30.19 | it runs like a dream on the ps4 tbh. don't regret getting it on this at all. gotta say though, you can't go wrong with mario maker 2 either. that game is in my top 3 most anticipated of the year. silksong is another one |
Gyromania
06.30.19 | brabiz: agreed, metroidvania is just such a great genre in general |
Gallantin
06.30.19 | My copy is still in the mail. Excited to play it, tho. |
Uzumaki
06.30.19 | Yeah, see, I got a Switch and not a PS4, so I’ll have to take your word for it. NGL, you saying the Switch port isn’t good makes me a little disappointed in it. |
Gyromania
06.30.19 | yeah i'm not sure what went so wrong. who knows though, perhaps they'll release a patch for it that'll fix all the major bugs that keep popping up for people. i've heard of some people getting soft locked and having to completely start from scratch. that shit happened to me in salt and sanctuary and i nearly uninstalled the game because of it. |
Gallantin
06.30.19 | They're promising to fix the Switch vers but I didn't want to wait so I pulled the trigger on a PS4 copy |
Pikazilla
06.30.19 | Hell yeah, love old-school Castlevania!
Can't wait to play this bad boy. |
auberginedreams
06.30.19 | I was gonna get it for Switch since I flew to Japan yesterday but I didn't since it apparently doesn't run well. I spent a hellish 12 hours on an airplane with a baby fucking screaming right behind me the whole time so I couldn't play my Switch much anyway. |
DungeonBoy
06.30.19 | I'm very much looking forward to playing it, but to be honest am not a fan of the graphics. As long as the gameplay and music are good though I'm sure it'll hold me over till Silksong |
Gyromania
06.30.19 | i did everything last night. got 100% of the map completed, did the side quests in the hub, fought all the secret bosses, etc. some of the endgame stuff is really damn fun. the last like 5 or 6 bosses are pretty insane, definitely memorable. |
ramon.
06.30.19 | the whole Kickstarter debacle made me nervous and I ended up forgetting to look into this further, might have to take the dive as the gameplay videos I'm skimming over look tight. |
Gyromania
06.30.19 | Yeah at first I thought the game looked very ugly and generic but they Iga revamped the whole thing like an absolute boss because he takes criticisms to heart. Def pick it up if you can. I just 100% the game and it's fantastic. |
0GuyMan0
07.04.19 | I'm at about 70% map completion rn. Backed the kickstarter, too. Beautiful physical edition. totally worth. |
Pikazilla
07.04.19 | How long did it take you to 100% everything, gyro? |
Pikazilla
07.04.19 | I remember how excited I was when I learnt Symphony had a whole secret castle. Best times. |
Gallantin
07.04.19 | Just got it in the mail today, playin it now. super fun |
Gyromania
07.04.19 | it took me a while pikazilla, there are a few trophies that are particularly grind-y, especially the one that requires you to amass 500,000 coins. even with the ring that makes you earn more $ grinding out the millionaire boss fight takes at least 3-4 hours.
this game is a hard 9/10 for me. best castlevania experience aside from symphony of the night, imo. will be playing rondo of blood shortly, pretty excited about that. i don't mind the more linear approach to castlevania as long as the level design is good. really loved curse of the moon, i'm sure any backers of ritual of the night must have played and enjoyed that one too. |
Pikazilla
07.04.19 | Damn, I should go buy a controller and play it. Castlevania series is easily in my top 5 ever. Believe it or not, my first game was Circle of the Moon, but I love them all. I remember downloading all the different emulators just so I could play them lol |
Gyromania
07.04.19 | haha same (re the emulators). i grew up playing some on the older consoles but it wasn't until just a few years back when i discovered emulators that i was able to play most of the ones i missed. amazingly consistent series. if you love castlevania then i'd say this is a must buy game. |
0GuyMan0
07.04.19 | I still call Hollow Knight the best metroidvania ever, but this is right there with Symphony for best Castlevania. |
GhostB1rd
07.04.19 | Game looks ancient to me. |
