What is the best Metroidvania?
That one.
This one.
You know the one.
Axion verge is pretty good.
Solves a huge flaw with most metroidvanias.
Best Metroidvania is Order of Ecclesia
Worst Metroidvania is Circle of the Moon
Best Classicvania is The New Generation
Worst Classicvania is Super Castlevania IV
Symphony of the Night
Dawn of SorrowSay what you will about the poor art direction, the game itself is top fucking notch.

Metroidvania is the entire genre, not just a term for Metroid-style CV games.
That said the best Metroidvania is Aria of Sorrow.
>>321729930
the "poor art direction" only applied to the character portraits, and that one cut-scene intro thingie. I don't understand why it's such a big deal for people, it's a tiny part of a wonderful game.

No, Metroidvania is the Metroid style Castlevania games. You're thinking of Castleroid.

Aria of Sorrow
I have not played nearly enough of these. I loved SOtN. bought the Saturn and the PS version. i am only a few hours into Super Metroid, having never played it when it first came out. Aria of Sorrow is good, but a little light.
my favorite is a game I know no one has heard of. Its a PC game, but i got it on IOS, a few years ago. it is utterly stellar, even more so when you consider that it was made by just two guys, not counting the voices

AVGN please go and take your nostalgia with you.

I am pretty sure even the most casual player can tell that Castlevania 2 is far worse than Castlevania 4. Or any of the N64 games, or half of the PS2 games

You couldn't be more wrong you stupid fuck, kill yourself.

Why do people hate circle of the moon? Personally it's my favorite, so I can't really fathom why people dislike it, let alone hate it
>>321732076
Only the casuals who watch your stupid youtube shit, James. IV is much worse than 2.

I'm trying to play Axiom Verge right now but it's so slow and boring so far. Got up to the electric shotgun weapon and the code destabilizer thing. Does it get better?
>>321728864
Getting ready to play Mirror of Fate, I'm sure it's the worst

It's good, not the worse
My first Castlevania. I love Harmony because of the cape and side sliding
Shadow Complex is cool
Has anyone here played Finding Teddy 2? Would it be classified as Metroidvania?
