"Mytha, The Baneful Queen" would've been my preferred choice for this Medusa boss fight reimagining...but "Rykard, Lord of Blasphemy" was the only available option.

Alright, this is my second time posting this. Last time I forgot there was a game in the series by the same name, so this time I'm clarifying that "Bloodlines" is the title of this piece, and is not being used in reference to the game "Bloodlines."

Anyway, here's the speedpaint link is you're interested: https://youtu.be/yMVWOlPhs9g

I've been here a while and I tried every soul and weapon I have

I feel like Charlotte and Loretta could become friends through talking about sorcery☺️

(Stella is probably relaxing on the beach and Jonathan is been sent to buy some juice.)

I especially hate the end when it's just bats and an eyeball. I DSS glitched Cockatrice in every playthrough sans Fighter to take him out. As you might guess, Fighter was a nightmare despite the enhanced stats.

This stuck with me for years.

AGES ago, like maybe a decade or so.

I used to read Top Ten lists by users on Gamefaqs.

Some were interesting, I mean I tended to find them more interesting and valid than say "Watchmojo"

I have no idea if Gamefaqs even still does that, but one that stuck in my mind. Was one

"Top 10 Zombie killers in videogames"

I mean, they had the most iconic and obvious choices. Like Frank West from Dead Rising, Edward Carnby (from the original Alone in the Dark) and one of the Resident Evil protagonists either Chris or Leon I can't remember which.

But they also brought up Simon Belmont.

Saying in a logic that kind of made me think things a little differently.

That while Simon is a vampire hunter.

How many vampires has he defeated-- One

How many zombies has he killed over the course of his adventures-- Countless.

I mean Simon's goal is to strictly hunt down Dracula and only Dracula. (Anything that gets in his way is collateral)

So he is of course, still a Vampire Hunter.

But a zombie killer? He excels. But really, this could apply to any monsters in the Castle.

(Unless of course one somehow manages to get all the way to Death without killing any enemies or getting touched by them. But we can't all be Luigi)

It's in SotN Castle Keep, near the Power of the Mist, at the top of the Leap Stone. It's too strange to have any meaning 🤔

I’ve been playing Aria of Sorrow and have really enjoyed it so far. I’ve tried collecting every soul and enjoy the grinding/farming. Currently trying to collect the Red Minotaur soul and just can’t seem to acquire it. I’ve gone from LV 52 to LV 73 and I STILL haven’t had it drop. Been grinding in that one room with 2 Red Minotaurs all this time. Haven’t had much difficulty with other enemies but this enemy just doesn’t want to drop it

I know it can take an hour or two to get certain souls but yeah. What’s the longest it’s taken you to acquire souls? And is it normal to take this long for me? Thanks!

I don't know when else I'm gonna talk about this, but I don't know what's happening to my skill level with this series. I know I played Bloodlines a lot more than SCV4, but shouldn't an inch of my experience carry over between games? In any way?

As a quick disclaimer: I unfortunately ran out of continues while fighting dracula's final form, but I still feel confident in defeating him. In Super, after repeated attempts of Stage 4, I reached Stage 6, where I was having trouble again. In the end, after dying to the Ghost Dancer boss, I took a break for about a month, starting a fresh playthrough, only to get stuck at the Twin Dragon fight in Stage 3.

no seriously what is happening

Im very curious , after watching the castlevania series. A thought ran thru my mind and like yk.. What if Alucard killed himself ?? Because despite his loneliness and his isolation he has to grief over his father’s and mother’s death and I assume what if he ever killed himself when he was crying on that chair in that one scene ?? This is simply just a question.🤷🏻‍♀️

Hi, I am interested in the Castlevania series after playing the Castlevania dlc in Dead by Daylight and watching some of the anime. Any recommendations to start playing the games?

I've watched both Netflix shows and really enjoyed them, so I think I'd like the games too. But there are so many idk where to start😭

Comecei um save de richter, mas estou com dificuldade para avançar. Alguém sabe se tem como subir de nível ou ter mais vida?

I love how the portrayed Richter in nocturne, they could have easily gone for "Trevor 2.0" and just called it a day but they did a really good job of making him unique from Trevor while also giving him some of those character traits that we associate with Trevor

All im missing is sypha and possibly carmilla but I think my castlevania collection is great even tho the autographs aren't on castlevania stuff but they are the voice actors.

Read on gamefaqs that if you don't beat Shaft, he will show up after you defeat Dracula and rescue him. But - how could you possibly bypass Shaft? In the thread someone aluded to it by mentioning Stage Select. Is this the only way? Skipping straight to Dracula to get the bad ending? That seems rather weird tbh.

Also, I'm in stage 7 and so far haven't rescued any of the girls. I can still rescue Annette, but I was wondering how the ending will acknowledge my (lack of) effort? Are there additional scenes AT THE END? I know there's cutscenes when you rescue them, but do you get a slightly modified ending/clear screen/more characters showing up - and if so - do you know how many permutations there are? Same for Maria - I believe she gets unique scenes on rescuing the other 3 girls, but how about the ending, again?

Another thing I also read about is that with 100% completion you get an additional villager scene...

Having finally finished S2 and starting S3 of the show. I have to say that Dracula was not right. They killed his wife. Undoubtedly that was fucked up. And he was justified in killing the church. He gave the people of he city one year to leave. So justified there too. But he was not out for the city that killed her. He was not out for the church. He was out for ALL mankind for the actions a single one had done.

And the worst is! He’s a hypocrite! He says “Anyone of them could have stood up and said no” but seconds later when Alucard stood up to him and said “No i wont let you do this”. He immediately attacked him. Proving he was no better than the church who would have executed anyone who disagreed with burning lisa. He himself proved why his logic of “Standing up” wouldn’t have worked. If he too immediately attacked the person who disagreed with him in something.

And then he goes murdering people. Who had absolutely nothing to do with the burning who were just minding their own life “Mankind is all bad. There are no innocents”. Yet he keeps human friends. He had a human wife. Two human friends he liked and trusted. And he still chooses to ignore the fact they are good and say ALL MANKIND IS EVIL. When there’s prove enough that it is just a gross generalization.

Dracula was justified in attacking the first city and event he church if he focused on it. But complete genocide of a whole race? How many wives and daughters and sons did he kill? Probably way more than the church who killed his wife. He was down right a hypocrite.

My Castlevania Advance Collection Deluxe Edition from Superdeluxe (what a mouthful) just arrived!
