We've waited 8 years for a new Castlevania game. And they give us a 3D remake of Order of Ecclessia?
>>340491604
Still better than MN9
>>340491604
Well at least my dick will enjoy Miriam regardless of the quality of the game.
looks pretty cool to me
>>340491604
>8 years for a new Castlevania game.
Bullshit Lords Of Shadow 2 came out 8 years ago.
>>340491604
You make it sound like OoE isn't the best Castlevania.
>>340491604
I like the idle animation.
>>340491604
You're never satisfied, are you?
>>340491604
I don't see any problems with this.
>>340491604
>And they give us a 3D remake of Order of Ecclessia
How so other than the female protag?
At least it's 2d gameplay. Finally big companies are learning that 3d platformers were a goddamn huge mistake.
>>340491604
Still a bit early to tell if the game will be good or not but that looks pretty good to me so far. At that stage MN9 already looked like hot shit.
>>340491604
Literally nothing wrong with this or OoE are you retarded OP
>>340491604
>implying
>implying a 3D remake of Order of Ecclessia wouldnt be great anyway
What are you on faggot?
>already looks more polished than MN9
Doesn't look terrible yet.
Cautious optimism

>>340492032
The level is what you'd see in OoE. The protagonist is a mostly blue woman with dark hair and symbols on her body, including one on her exposed back. The treasure chests are 1:1 copies.
This is Order of Ecclessia 2: 3D but changed enough so that it is legally distinct.
>>340492032
Wouldn't be the first Castlevania to do that, either. Legends had it; Legacy of Darkness had it; the Dracula X games had it.
>>340491604
/v/ has honestly led me to believe they just shit on any kickstarter that gets finished.
Fuck it I'll buy Mighty No. 9 and Bloodstained. They actually look decent.
Lords of Shadows is a thousand times better then your shitty IGAVANIA games.
I really don't like that the last couple Bloodstained threads have been very shitposty. I knew it would happen after more info got released but goddamn.
>>340491604
>And they give us a 3D remake of Order of Ecclessia
I am absolutely fine with this.
Those animations and environments look top tier as fuck. Day one buy for me.
>>340492253
after so many dissapointments. I dont really blame them
>tfw Armikrog was shit
Atleast Shovelknight turned out great
>>340492302
Not to say that Order doesn't have things going for it, but it has some big flaws. The levels are very simple, and mostly straight hallways. Left to right, right to left affairs.
>>340492258
Here's your (you)
>>340492258
>Lords of Shadows
The first game was pretty good. The DLC was a rip-off tho.
Mirror of Fate was garbage and LoS2 was disappointing as fuck and didn't even give us a decent ending.
One of my favorite elements of Order was the comfy village. I hope it makes a return. I liked that there were normal people to talk to rather than just merchants.
>>340491604
>Iga making an Igavania
What's the problem here?
>>340492219
>The treasure chests are 1:1 copies
By that standard, about 900 games are remakes of one another because they all use the Red Cross' logo on first aid kits. It's a treasure chest, and probably a placeholder graphic at that.
You're basing all of this off of a handful of scenes. What's more, the game is clearly inspired by the Castlevania series, so without a doubt it's going to have similarities, especially if we get so nitpicky that having a "water level" makes something a "copy" of another game which so happens to have a "water level" too, a common element in a HELL of a lot of games, particularly platformers.
>>340491604
The only problem I really have with this is that with 3D, it's much more obvious how floaty you are. Maybe get some of that sweet Alucard afterimage going on to smooth it out.
>>340491604
>3D remake of the best DSvania
>>340492475
Ehhh i'm rather fond of LOS2 (If only because you get to play as Dracula, and he plays really fucking cool. Like a Vampire Count from Warhammer) but yeah...ending really pissed me off.
>>340492515
>Igavania
Why does he name the genre after himself, even though he was only the Assistant Director? Wouldn't Hagi-vania make more sense?
>>340492668
probably because he can't call it Castlevania, and his name is Iga, not Hagi
>>340492569
I'll give you that. It is one of the few comments I have about the game so far.
>>340492385
From what I hear, Armikrog was just average.
Seriously, too many people shit on a kickstarter game for not being as high quality as the stuff nintendo and capcom can shit out on a daily basis. As someone who wants to get into game development, it just seems unreasonable and discouraging.
>>340492668
produced most post-SotN games
>>340492668
He didn't want to call it Metroid-vania because that's not actually what inspired the team to make SotN the way it was. Also I'm sure he wanted to avoid any potential problems with using the term and made a new one. Also Igarashi's been more involved with the games than his co-director, who left the industry.
Why is the point that he was a co-director such a point of contention for you shitposter-types?
>>340492853
>. As someone who wants to get into game development
Ayyyy lmao
>>340492928
>Ayyyy lmao
Deserved, am I wrong though?
>>340492219
So? OoE's only problem was the linearity and it looks like they want to fix that. What are the alternatives? SoTN 2.0 or AoS 3.0?
>>340492890
>Why is the point that he was a co-director such a point of contention for you shitposter-types?
Because Symphony and Rondo are Toru Hagihara's games. Iga's eclipsed him because he became series producer, but Hagihara is way more important.
Hagihara was Producer and director. Iga was the Assistant director. It's not an equal relationship.
>>340493207
>but Hagihara is way more important.
Apparently not as much as you think since he didn't direct CotM, AoS, PoR, CoD or OoE. Neither did IGA but he's been involved in the development of more Castlevania games than him.
>>340493047
Nope, but I guess people just assume more money = more quality in games, and some of the latest kickstarter games that get shitted on got millions on their funding
>tfw Dragons Crown was made with a 1M budget
>MN9 had 5 times the same budget
At the end of the day, its the developers that make games great, not money. I still have hope for Bloodstained and Yooka-Laylee
>>340493523
>>tfw Dragons Crown was made with a 1M budget
Dragon's Crown was also headed by George Kamitani who did a FUCKLOAD of work for no pay on it. It's not really fair to compare Bloodstained or MN9 to it.
>>340493440
All of those games are massively derivtative of Symphony. And Hagihara was the man behind that game.
>>340493669
But you fuckers act like because he isn't involved the game will be shit. The dude isn't in the industry anymore and IGA never claimed to mastermind the games and praised the dude a lot in interviews so why do you care?
>>340493669
Symphony is massively derivative of Metroid and Hagihara wasn't the man behind that game.
>>340493110
>SoTN 2.0 or AoS 3.0?
Both of those sound better.
>>340493801
Most people think Iga alone directed Symphony. Others think he's behind all the games.
And having the most talented person NOT behind the new game is a big deal. It means it will very likely not reach the same level as Symphony, despite the bigger budget, and 20 years of technological advancement.
>>340493669
And Symphony was massively derivative of Super Metroid. Your point?
>>340494058
CotM was already better than Symphony. Games are better when they actually have some challenge to them.
>>340494154
>>340493974
Symphony surpasses Super Metroid and builds upon it. It's not just a copy.
>>340494274
is Bloodstained going to have an ancestral family like the Belmonts?
that was one of my favorite things about Castlevania, the eternal blood feud between the Belmont bloodline and Dracula
>>340494463
Doubt it. This is Order of Ecclessia 2.
>>340494274
>surpasses
You blew it. Symphony was great but outside of maybe the music and graphics Super is a better game in every way.
>>340494058
What level? What exactly does the game excell at that other games which came after it don't besides maybe the dark atmosphere?
>>340494563
As far as the handheld Castlevanias, just graphics and music. Every other aspect has been done better Toby at least one of the GBA and DS games.
>>340491604
Dunno, man, that presentation reminds me much more of the PSP version of Rondo of Blood.
>>340494534
>>340494392
>>340494563
>endless variety of weapons, spells, attacks
>bigger map
>better graphics
>better music
>more secrets
>more details
>better bosses
It really feels like the next step. The CD and Playstation architecture allows for so much to be added. I'm STILL finding out little things I didn't know about SotN.
>>340494956
Better than what? What are you comparing it to? The DS games are better at every element you listed
>>340494058
He wasn't involved in CotM, AoS, PoR, CoD or OoE and they were fine.
>>340491604
>a 3D remake of Order of Ecclessia?
Fine by me
>>340494956
>better bosses
No.
>bigger map
With terrible level design.
>endless variety
Many of the weapons are copies with slight stat differences.
>>340495043
>>340495092
The handheld games are fine, but they feel like smaller games in terms of scale, graphics, and complexity. Compare the amount of gear and attacks in Symphony vs. the handhelds. Although it cheats a bit with the inverted castle, it IS a much bigger and longer game.
>>340495043
He's comparing it to Super Metroid. And he's still wrong.
>>340492253
stop falling susceptible to confirmation biase.
>>340495254
>but they feel
So you're ignoring how big the games actually are? All of the DS games are longer than SoTN and none of them rely on flipping the same map. PoR has more gear too with much more varied movesets plus better balance. Also you're assuming that bigger is better which isn't true in the first place. In fact it's more impressive when a game squeezes a lot of use out of a small map because it requires creativity.
>>340494463
Just now it doesn't appear to be that way, but there may be something there. Each of the characters has potential for this in what backstory we do know, not to mention the castle's backstory.
>>340494956
>endless variety of weapons, spells, attacks
>better bosses
All of that made pointless because of the broken RPG progression making the game a joke if you explored the map for a while
>bigger map
with more boring design, few part really stand out compared to metroid
>better graphics
>better music
Agree
>more secrets
>more details
Has someone actually quantify those?
>>340491604
>We've waited 8 years for a new Castlevania game. And they give us a 3D remake of the best Castlevania game?
Cool.
This is exactly what I wanted, what I payed for, and I'm satisfied with it. Hopefully it keeps up. Her running animation looks a bit stiff, but I bet they'll add a little more flair to it. Love her standing animations.
Music, atmosphere all feels like a new castlevania. Which is what I wanted.
>>340493663
This
>>340494058
AoS is the best Metroidvania, and he wasn't involved in it. So it doesn't mean anything that he isn't involved in this.
Comparison of map size between the games:
Symphony of the Night: 1,890 squares (both castles)
Portrait of Ruin: 1,846 squares
Harmony of Dissonance: 1348 squares (both sides)
Order of Ecclesia: 1,335 squares
Dawn of Sorrow: 1023 squares
Circle of the Moon: 980 squares
Aria of Sorrow: 928 squares
Super Metroid: 1409 squares (with a margin of error due to diagonal rooms)
Super Metroid Redesign: 2849.
>female character
DROPPED.
>>340493663
Someone who is really passionate about his game and is willing to work on it for free is not a fair point of comparison for kickstarter projects?
>>340491604
Why doesn't her black skirt flutter when she's jumping around? Or is that armor?
>>340496257
Yeah kinda, most devs would not do that also most game directors are not also the president of the company and head artist.
>>340496257
It isn't a reasonable expectation for any game to get an amazing artist willing to do all the work for fuck all pay. What is this childish worldview you have?
>>340491604
This looks like good 2.5D. They even have the same sliding animation when the character changes directions. Michiru Yamane score feels right at home.
Also, the main character is cute.
>>340494956
I can deal with a lot of what you said, but
> better bosses
is just straight up wrong. SotN bosses were almost all incredibly easy and you could even feasibly trade hits with them.
>>340496387
>most devs would not do that
I dunno, lots of kickstarter videos mention how they worked on the project for at least some months with money from their own pockets, at least the ones that have something to show beyond concept art
>>340493663
>>340496257
Isn't that dude like, one of the most talented vidya artists in the world or something.
looks better than mighty flop 9: delayed edition
but this game will be delayed for sure, there's so much shit they need to get done that they will surely run out of time or they will be chewed out if they don't deliver (on time and not just after release as free updates but it is something they will have to resort to if they want the game out before 2019) almost everything they promised which is all the modes, biggest castle yet and multiple playable characters, online etc
>>340491604
They release test footage for the character navigation
>this game is shit, where's the scenario
They release update with scenario this time
>uh, this, i... so it's just a 3d remake of OoE?!
Man, fuck you, fagott. Fuck all you faggots. People like you SHOULD be ripped off by kickstarters. You can never settle for anything, even when a good game is actually rubbed in your face. The game as it is already made all these faggots' money worth it.
Shut the fuck up, sit back and let people who actually work with it do their thing.
>>340496817
I believe in Iga. He has experience running projects on budget and on time with modest budgets.
>>340496817
It appears so from the update but they are promising a playable demo so it's likely they have much more than just an empty level done that they're not showing.
>>340496925
Iga appears to actually know what he's doing, at worst we get something on par with shovel knight, valdis story and shantae.
>>340496817
Aren't they doing a staggered content release for the multiplayer? As in it comes after the actual release.
>>340497137
All the handheld games were cheap. I think like 1 million dollar budgets. He ran 5 out of 6 of those.
>>340496801
Dude basically drew all the characters, backgrounds and assets for Dragon's Crown.
>>340497350
Don't fucking forget Princess Crown.
The guy deserves the success he's gained.
>>340491604
Looks pretty sharp.
I'll try not to die between now and release.

They don't want Castlevania handheld sales. They were never big sellers. Modest budgets, modest sales, modest profits. They want God of War sales instead.

Even though I think games may be shoe horning in too much lesbians these days, I'm not really pumped to save him.
>>340498825
In 2011, almost no one knew the name Kitamura.Everyone thought Inafune was the "father of Mega Man".
Hilarious what a fuckup of a project can do to people.

>>340498963
>Shanoa got to save village girls

>>340492032
OoE isn't the first Castlevania to have female protag in it
OP is probably talking about how the new character looks like Shanoa going through the castle
>>340492253
So far?
Shovel Knight was literally the only Kickstarter I have seen that doesn't look like shit.
Bloodstained gives cautious optimism but I won't get my hopes up.
I refuse to contribute money to any game that isn't even finished yet, though. Fuck that noise.
>>340499164
Dragonfall is pretty decent
>>340499164
I liked Dragonfall and Freedom Planet.
>>340491604
>And they give us a 3D remake of Order of Ecclessia?
That'd be pretty cool.
I really wish that 2d sprite work wasn't being phased out of the industry though.
>>340491604
I hope Igarashi played La-Mulana.
If he can make the entire map hidden with traps and notes in caution to either help or detur the player. I would be happy since it would be taking caution.
Like one area in the castle would be a room where it could fall down onto you crushing you into finely grained Crystals. In only which you needed a relic to bypass it. Something to jam the ceiling against the ground holding it up like a extending rod or a Crystal Skull in spot where the previous relic was.
>>340491604
>And they give us a 3D remake of Order of Ecclessia?

Not seeing the issue here
The environments look great but the animation seems a bit stiff to me and the movement speed could be 5% faster

I didn't hear you bitches complaining when he wasn't involved in every single other Castlevania after that and IGA was at the very least involved in most of them.
>>340499575
The cool thing about Freedom Planet is that it plays a lot more like a other Genesis games BESIDES Sonic. It's a surprisingly neat and fun game, and one of the few instances when a game is actually "retro".
>>340499593
>Still sad we won't get a War of 1999 Julius game.
Seems rather pointless to be honest. We've killed Dracula countless times as the Belmonts.
Thematically Dracula had his character closure in Symphony.
The interesting story bits was the aftermath of the death of Dracula anyways, which is what we got in Aria.
>>340499164
FTL was kickstarted too iirc.
People are praising a character jumping in empty environments
When Indivisible threads got shitposted to oblivion for having a "boring" prototype
I'm honestly amazed at the doublethink going on here.
>>340500103
and Shadowgate, and Volgarr, and Shadowrun Returns, and a fuckload of other good games.
>>340500137
I liked Indivisible's demo, I dunno why /v/ had such a problem with it. Oh wait, it's because Indivisible had one of those strong female protagonists who isn't complete waifubait that /v/ hates so much.
>>340500137
What makes you think those posts were made by the same people?
I personally liked the Indivisible prototype and will be looking forward to that game too.
>>340500137
You seem to be under the false impression that people need some sort of justification to shitpost. People would shit on indivisible and mock anyone backing it even if it looked like the most amazing game ever.
>>340497489
>>340500137
Constant thread were made over and over during the campaign without most people being that interested (not saying it was a shill), of course people ended hating it
>>340491604
Looks good to me OP.
>>340498210
My only hope is that there is some sort of movement upgrade like the backdash in SotN.
>>340500536
Trine was more obsessed with pretty visuals than actually being a good game or a decent length, You can 100% like all 3 in 3 hours each. Also Bloodstained is more than fucking a year out from being finished.
>>340500536
that third image blinded me.
Anyone here played La-Mulana?
I want Bloodstained to have La-Mulana diffaculty.
Would be tight to see Meriam riding on a minecart while a giant ancient dinosaur is chasing after her at full speed. Or a Screen filling Tiamet.

Probably does the formula justice. The original is more difficult then the remake though.
Till then La-Mulana 2 is coming out first before Bloodstained so that will give me some time to complete before Bloodstained officially releases.
2017 is going to be the Year of the Platformers and its Genre.
Including Freedom Planet which will release AFTER Bloodstained in third quarter.
>>340501956
Freedom Planet 2 you numbnuts.
>>340501631
Sorry anon but it's true. Outside of Kamitani's art and the music the game wasn't anything special. The only Vanillaware game that might be worse is that DS only one that I didn't get to play.
>>340501956
Unless Freedom Planet 2 is a huge improvement over the first I'm not interested.
>>340497626
I never got the "It looks like a flash game" thing with Skullgirls.

I, for one, will enjoy my backer box. You dudes have fun complaining about video games and not having girlfriends on an anonymous Bhutanese woodcarving board, though.

Every game with HD sprites "looks like a flash game"
>>340502201
What's wrong with the first? Apart from the story stuff of course.

oh god why are people more interested in Bloodstained oh gosh oh why
I've never played Castlevania but why does the platforming look floaty?

Lack of detail, thick black lines, cartoony simple look.

This is true too. In addition to the above, they are using drawing programs that overlap a bit with flash. They're not building up sprites by the pixels, and they aren't going for a detailed look. Plus the characters look very flat, rather than going for a 3D look.
I would love to see something with HD sprites, but tries to look more like older pixel art.

That game was clunky, frustrating, and tedious a fuck. The story and the visuals were its ownly redeeming qualities.

With the Kickstarter money from the first game, Humble Bundle Sales and Indibox they have well enough money to procure professional talent such as Taxman to work on it and more.

Too many copy-pasted areas in the levels and wonky physics. Not a fan of the combat stuff either; it felt unnecessary to me. I certainly don't begrudge anyone for liking it, and it has its share of good points, but ultimately it wasn't all that enjoyable to me.
>>340502476
All the Metroidvania ones are like that. Plays better than it looks though.
>>340501404
Except Skullgirls is dead.
I never played FTL but Darkest Dungeon feels like a tablet game.

If GalaxyTrail can pull it off. Igarashi can sure as hell do a follow up with Bloodstained Ritual of the Night.

I dunno, when I think of flash style stuff, I think along the lines of pic related. SG is decidedly cartoony, but it still feels like a cut above what I would consider your average flash affair.
In any case, the defining feature of flash style stuff to me is tweened, sort of plug-and-play animation, and Skullgirls doesn't fit that bill with its decidedly traditional approach. Plus, the per-pixel real time lighting helps too.
>>340502931
Skullgirls is actually surprisingly alive, for now. They will never ever be big, but they managed to have a pretty respectable showing at Combo Breaker, recently.

>Darkest Dungeon feels like a tablet game.
I mean, you could probably play most turn based RPGs on a tablet. But DD is fun... okay it's kind of bullshit sometimes, but most of the time it's fun.

Armikrog's problem other than being buggy as shit at release (and maybe still today, I dunno) was that it was basically just a poor man's Neverhood. Might as well just play the old game again.
>>340491604
So this is the power... of not being able to reuse Rondo of Blood sprites... forever and ever... woah...

What did he mean by this?
>>340503972
I got very bored rather quickly and would rather play EO or an SMT game.
It's extremely shallow for a dungeon crawling game.
