So does /vr/ prefer Dracula X to Super Castlevania IV? Everyone

inb4 requisite castlevania thread shitflinging.

People seem to hate on 4 just because it's an easier game and is considered by many to be one of if not the best classicvania. Rondo is great, although the anime style is a bit unfortunate. Many people also seem to be under the impression that CV Dracula X was an attempt at a port of rondo to SNES but really it's just using some of the same resources and building a more linear game very much in the style of the first castlevania. I don't think comparing the games is really fair, since they were approached with completely different design philosophies. Each game has its own merit and to try and lift one up while shitting on all the others is pretty stupid, if you like the series then just enjoy the damn games for what they are. Every castlevania game has its good points that make them worth playing, except maybe castlevania judgement.

tl;dr: play them all.

A better question would be Akumajou Dracula X68000 with or without MIDI?

Dracula X > Bloodlines > Rondo > IV
Anything is better than sotn.

Rondo is the easiest Classicvania.
Hating IV is a meme by anti-nintendo guys like australia-kewn.
They're all great, even Dracula X Snes.

X68000 > Bloodlines > Rondo > XX > Haunted Castle > IV

>Bloodlines that high

CVX is significantly more enjoyable to me, but at the end of the day, even a "bad" CV is still a CV.

Tried Vampire Killer today it's pretty fun, instead of going with Metroidvania they should have going with this.

Isn't it basically a simplified metroidvania without scrolling?

It's "you're stuck in a stage and can roam around it until you've found everything, then when you do move to the goal door onto the next stage."
