it didn't, it got renewed for a second season.

netflix just make a small amount of episodes of shows to test the waters.

F is for family went trough a similar process and the second season is fucking awesome

the church being solely fucking evil was kinda fucking weird but it also fits the tone of the show.

The Church is fucking massive, you can't paint every member of the church with the same brush. When Trevor needed some holy water, a priest delivered.

your autism is showing. video games are never adapted correctly. Mainly because it doesn't translate well from video game to tv.

Game of thrones is the same way. The original work doesn't always make good tv.

Bishop was the only evil one. Notice how in the fight in episode 4, Trevor found an "actual" priest to create holy water. The other priests in the town were not real priests. Also, the demon in the church scene made it pretty clear that the bishop was not a man of god.

The Dracula exposition was fine, it's only the first four episodes setting up the series so they had to establish that. Definitely needed more Castlevania music, though. And less British VAs exhaustively mumbling their lines, I literally needed to turn on subtitles at one point.

Except it isnt. The church didnt play a major role because the story was minimal and served just to have the player go on a journey to slay Dracula. If the Netflix series wanted to expand on that then it makes logical sense to have the church play somewhat of a role.

It served to bring Trevor and Sypha together, by extension have Trevor find his determination to go stop Dracula, and gave Dracula more of a motivatino beyond just "Im evil." which is also canon as shown in SoTN. By the end of the season the corrupt elements that were present (bishop, thugs masquerading as priests) have been removed and the church is no longer needed for the story in the following season two.
