>tfw Netflix series already a big success >Konami didn't

>>383456278

the real question is why is the writing so bad in this?

>people still shilling this pile of crap

>>383456448
>>383456543
I guess the dialogue could have bee better. Animation was never bad nor was there ever any QUALITY. If anything you could just tell they were on a small budget at times.

And if we're shitting on the writing I guess we might as well just shit on CV3 since it's just an adaption.

If they were smart they would have released a handful of the old games on steam.

They can't.

i just wish trevor wasnt TROVOR THE VAMPIRE KILLER, they could have made him a decet level headed guy who didnt need to proclaim that he was TROVOR FUCKING BELMONT

He's justified, but he did murder a lot of people who were not involved.

He gave a full year of warning though, so those people must have really liked living in their shit country.

>>383457187
He was drunk you mong

He was drunk when he said that.

Pretty sure I'm a soul

Also making Alucard just have his SotN outfit is cool but it's clearly just pandering

>>383457231

The anime was good despite konami. Warren Ellis has been trying to get this fucker off the ground for literally a decade.

>>383457261
it wasn't just a prank?

>four episodes now constitute a season
How did we let Netflix ruin TV?

>>383457324

SotN Alucard is objectively better than Dracula-look-alike Alucard from CV3. And I played CV3 back when I was a kid and Alucard was still my favorite CV character.

If they had been more clear to Dracula that they burned his wife as a prank, I'm sure he would have understood and merely pranked them back.

>>383456278
How do you know they aren't? They just put out a Bomberman game and Bloodstained got kickstarted like what, a year ago? They could very well be working on a new Castlevania right now and just aren't ready to show it yet.

Animation cost money. I think Netflix just wanted to be safe before pouring more money into an adaption of, lets face it, a series of games that may never get a new installment.

>>383457187
Fuck, I wish.

Animated transmet would be trippy as hell, as long as they didn't cop out and get dennis leary for spider's va.

He's annoying to control I guess. Stubbornly killing himself on staircases instead of walking down them. So they took that element from Castlevania 3 and made it a character trait.

Hard to control = reckless/drunkard/apathetic type personality.

Lords of Shadow was garbage.

As long as they give it to a developer who understands what the fuck Castlevania is it'll probably be fine.

>>383457679
People want more 2D Castlevania. If Konami would understand that the series would have never stagnated.

>>383457761

You may not like them but they are canon.

Who's gonna make it? They have no developers left and we all know what happened the last time Castlevania was outsourced.

>>383458029

But the other time it was outsourced we got The Adventure: Rebirth.

>>383457679
I just want more 2D Castlevania, side scrolling Castlevania, whatever. Lords of Shadow was absolute garbage and so far away from what made Castlevania a great series in the first place.

I want another challenging platforming with multiple routes and characters with catchy music again. Honestly, Castlevania doesn't need to be a AAA series, AA is fine enough. Go the Super Bomberman R route and make a new classic type Castlevania for Switch/all platforms.

Every night I curse Judgement for squandering the one opportunity to introduce Castlevania to the fighting genre. It's existence is a fucking crime and a blight to this timeline.

>>383458262

agreed
although the bloody tears and vampire hunter remixes were pretty cool

>>383458262
they made contra so maybe old school CV and not mvania type

>>383456278

>>383458342

All the remixes in that game were great. Hell even the CV64 medly for Cornell made me nostalgic.

Oh I know all about that, believe you-me. I meant I enjoyed playing the game, the story is pretty not great to, well... that.

At least they didn't resort to this shit for the art style.

Haha wouldn't it be funny if Sipha actually peed in a bucket and told Trevor it was beer and he drank it as like a prank just a thought haha

He's kinda supposed to be. He's a depressed alcoholic because he was exiled and he's the only survivor to carry on the Belmont name. Would you prefer a upbeat Mary Sue like Luffie from One Piece or Naruto?

The lines between good and evil are blurred in this show which is actually part of why I enjoy it. There's no distinct good and evil, even Dracula's hatred of mankind is justified as them killing his wife was simply the straw that broke the camels back. As an immortal, I'm sure he has a shitlist of transgressions committed against him by humankind.

>our last game sold really well!

>let's make the sequels art style really lazy and generic, our research shows it'll be a hit with the younger kids. Younger kids appear to consume generic anime so let's make our game blend in with all the rest.

>The younger kids who didn't play the first game and have no money with which to purchase video games in the first place

>Yeah let's market to an audience which doesn't exist and couldn't buy our game even if they did exist, that's the perfect plan!

Why do developers always do this?

If you want to market to kids, don't make a sequel. Make an original game and call it "Filthy Frank Fuck Your Friends Dad Kill Yourself: The Social Media Memeventure"

>>383456278
That art "style" is atrocious.

>>383460361
Notice how you're in the minority? Yeah, it's the minority for a reason.

>>383458595

Fucking hell man why isn't Hard Corps on Steam I miss that game

>>383460361
That's just, like, your opinion, man.

>>383460361

It's pretty conservative as far as Castlevania art goes. The characters don't betray their original designs which is probably more important than the art style itself.

The art style is western pseudo-anime, but in manages a higher grade in quality than a lot of others (Beserk the CGI, Avatar: Legend of Quora, Star Wars Clone Snores, Disney's Gargoyle) so it gets a pass as a result of the grade curve.

But yeah, it ain't no Cowboy Bebop but then again nothing is.

>>383457415
Next season has 8 episodes, which is similar to some animes.

It's just a spectacle fighter, plays a little bit like Powerstone which isn't bad but don't expect any balance or depth from it. For all intents and purposes it's a commercially released experiment.

Ecclesia's place in the timeline is set in the past. The final canonical Dracula is killed by Soma once and for all.
