What went wrong?
Could they possibly overdesign a character more? The only thing missing is to make one eye glow
Nothing, seems like the 1% of Kickstarters that deliver.
Nothing.
>Demo isn't even out yet
Calm down, you'll have something new to shitpost about soon. Be patient.

>>341036108
Game ain't done.

Everyone lost their shit to a producer of a franchise they like.
Although it honestly doesn't look nearly as bad as people seem to think it is right now.
Tits are too big.

This was already decided when the kickstarter went up, people who expected anything else simply didn't fucking read.

IGA has literally done nothing wrong
Inafune can't stop sticking his hand out and begging
>>341046273
There's also Molyneux.
This game will bring nothing new or different to the table, and what it does bring will be underwhelming compared to the games it's trying to be.
It will be forgotten in less than a month, maybe two.
People expecting another SOTN or another GBA Castlevania game are in for a huge disappointment.
The only thing that will have lasting appeal from this is the fan art/porn. Which will outlive the game's life expectancy easily.
Game won't even break then 15 hour mark either, guaranteed.
>>341046273
>IGA is a con-man
Why is everyone that hates on the game a fucking retarded that humiliates themselves?
>>341047628

That's not how things work. Even the most dull Castlevania games are remembered, and even aside from that it would be remembered as being one of the kickstarters that went up after Mighty Number 9.

Honestly, the only developer who doesn't have a single bad game under his belt is Hideki Kamiya.
Some would argue that Hideaki Itsuno's there too, but he's a real man and took responsibility for DMC2, even though rumors say he was given the project very late and did his best to fix it in a few months.
>>341079452
Very soon by the sounds of it, they were showing it at the Xbox booth and said it would be playable when it's playable there.
>>341067831
Vanillaware doesn't do real 2D either (although it does look great).
I guess there's... Wayforward?

As much as I love classic monster movies, I'm glad he went for something different this time. We already have Castlevania for that, and I'm always happy to see the great 72 in video games.
Also, it's just the same publisher. They're desperate to sell something after MN9, so there's nothing to worry about here. It's a completely different team.

Not that guy. But she kind of was. The hands down best female character of the entire Castlevania franchise.
That said. Miriam certainly does not need to be like her. And Miriam is still both cool and adorable.
>>341093530
What they've shown so far was pretty basic.
They did manage to use 3d properly for the levels, though. The castle looks ok.

>>341097357
what makes Maria 10 times better? Being both a playable character and the friendly NPC of SOTN? Is it because you really like Rondo and SOTN?

But you're posting the illegalbestversion of Maria. I thought you meant SotN Maria.
>>341095942

Her back and legs, you tasteless faggot
>>341098654
She went from damsel in distress, to viable support character, to independently kicking ass in SotN. It wasn't the most advanced or deep character arc, but it pretty much dwarves every other female character, particularly Shanoa who needed a cast of 10+ people to develop her character for her and even then it barely worked.
>>341099167
They're all the same character. Call it cheating if you want, but it's true. Shanoa had a whole game to herself, so it's not exactly an unfair comparison.
>>341040660
She keeps the parts of her body that are crystallized uncovered because they're painful to touch.

>>341099520
>She went from damsel in distress, to viable support character, to independently kicking ass in SotN.
I could see one liking that. Though its worth noting that to the player its seems more like she got demoted in adulthood (since you never see her do any fighting) unless you count enhanced SotN versions.
Your talk about Shanoa needing the villagers to develop her seems misguided though, those were just a few nice conversations, she depends solely on Albus for development.
She's gonna be a Christmas Cake forever isn't she?
>>341100540
Hard to discuss anything else about it barely any gameplay shown, at least without shitposting.
I want to play the demo but I don't want to quit watching the E3 press conferences.
>>341100540
>people who complain about threads diverging or devolving without providing anything else
You're worse, at least their posts are relevant to Castlevania and are talking about the actual characters instead of just dumping art, hardly ruining the thread. Besides, the demo is coming out soon which will give our first taste of basic gameplay and there isn't much else to talk about until then.
What's your least favorite Castlevania, fucker
>>341101814
That cannon is sexy.
>>341101178
Are there any forms of movement you think are essential for this game to be successful?
I will be extremely disappointed if there isn't a High Jump/Roc Wing-esqe move and some vertical oriented rooms to use it on. Bonus points if you can latch onto and dash on the ceiling.
>>341101814
Her neutral stance animation is kind of funny. I don't mind it, but it feels more like it should be one of those poses the characters make when you hold Up.
>>341100916
>Your talk about Shanoa needing the villagers to develop her seems misguided though, those were just a few nice conversations, she depends solely on Albus for development.
I misphrased it slightly. I meant that her character was mostly carried by the villagers in the early-mid game, since it was their ecclectic personalities kept the conversations alive.
She's entirely dependent on Albus (and to a certain extent Barlowe and Dracula himself) to develop her character. It's not exactly a bad thing, but it doesn't change the fact that she barely emotes for about 80% of the game, even when having conversations with the villagers.
I'm being overly assholish about it, I know. It just got to me that there's the same people complaining that Miriam isn't like Shanoa in every damn thread. Shanoa isn't that bad, but she isn't exactly the kind of pedestal character they make her out to be.
>Though its worth noting that to the player its seems more like she got demoted in adulthood (since you never see her do any fighting) unless you count enhanced SotN versions.
I suppose you never clearly see it, but the fact that she's casually wondering through Dracula's castle without any trouble and invariably getting ahead of Alucard multiple times says enough about her strength in adulthood.

>>341103514
Well, the villagers in OoE were frozen in place by Albus. And the other shopkeepers generally belong in the Castle (Librarian in SotN) or just...are kind of there, like the one in HoD. He's probably some kind of secret badass.
As for why there are even monsters in the non-Castle areas in OoE before Dracula even revives...fuck if I know, man.
>>341103765
>game said in the beginning she lost her memories and emotions
I know, and that's part of the problem. Taking away her emotions hurt her character for most of the game.
>Fuck who thought it was a good idea to make a character who lost their emotions?
Ask Square Enix, I guess. But at least in Lightning and Shanoa's case there's an in-universe reason for it, instead of just having no real emotions for no clear reasonMetroid should never have had a coherent story.
>>341104218
>But villagers were great.
That's what I was saying. They're the ones who kept the story alive in the early-mid game.
Tsundere Apotacary is based as fuck.

>>341101918
Least favorite Castlevania? Lords of Shadow 2. I even enjoyed the first one. But god damn was the sequel a massive disappointment. Best Castlevania is CotM by the way.

Shanoa seems to be rather blatantly inspired by Deception II's protagonist Millennia, right down to the color scheme. She too was the emotionless type.
>>341106392
IT'S SOON NOW
>>341105547
>As for why there are even monsters in the non-Castle areas in OoE before Dracula even revives...fuck if I know, man
I'm sure this has long been a thing in the series though, an example would be Bloodlines, unless we're to assume Dracula's niece (or whatever she was) can lead his army.
>>341106342
>I even enjoyed the first oneSame
>>341106427
yes we absolutely can.
>>341106342
I liked LoS2 from a combat gameplay perspective in all honesty. But stupid shit like the rat, unkillable guys with canon, and stealth segments should have only been in the first hour of the game.
>>341106887
NOT THAT SOON
>>341106987
>unless we're to assume Dracula's niece (or whatever she was) can lead his army.
I don't see why not, the same kind of thing sort of happened with Brauner in PoR.
It's been a long time since I last played OoE, maybe there's a reason Dracula's residual power is distorting the world even whilst he's sealed away or something. Ecclesia itself must have kept going without him for a reason.
Or at least an 'official' reason, outside of the actual reason of trying to revive him in the first place.
>>341107710
FUCK YOU
>>341107917
I mean we all know the real reason is that there has to be enemies in the game, even if Dracula isn't a thing till part two.
>>341101814
Holy shit this looks terrible. Everything is brown. Nothing pops out.
>>341106881
Actually it was inspired by IGA's wife. He literally made the MC his waifu.
>>341107917
It's pretty clear that keeping Dracula's remains outside of the Castle leeches his influence into the surroundings like radioactivity See Barlowe.
>>341105484
I'm gonna pirate the hell out of that demo.

>>341109174
>I mean we all know the real reason is that there has to be enemies in the game
Well yeah, that goes without saying. It's just that there was no real need to question it before. Even in Simon's Quest, Dracula's reamains presumably were causing evil to spring up all over the place, I think? God, I don't even remember now.
>>341109323
>It's pretty clear that keeping Dracula's remains outside of the Castle leeches his influence into the surroundings like radioactivity See Barlowe.
Yeah, that's probably it. Presumably the same principle as Simon's Quest, even.
>>341109656
Super isn't the best game, so don't use that as an example. Also has some issues on that stage with Belmont not popping out.
Rondo, Symphony, Aria, Dawn, etc all have the protagonist always popping against the background.
Not so much in BS. The canon just kinda blends with teh background without much contrast. Similar cannon in SotN is black while the area around it is white marble.
>>341076530
It's part of the story, the main villain has it too, only over his entire body.
>>341109736
>>341109323
The similarities between these characters are so striking I think it's a bit of both.
>>341107058
I get why tons of people hated it, because it really doesn't feel like a typical Castlevania, but it reminded me of Simon's Quest quite a bit. And unlike most fans I rather enjoyed that game, despite it being the red-headed stepchild of the classic games (probably because I played it as a kid and nostalgia is clouding my memories, but still). I liked the new origin for Dracula and him being a somewhat sympathetic figure. I don't hate the GoW games though so I've never been adverse to that play style.
>>341107538
Yeah the combat was fine. But the level design was horrid, as were the story and characters, and so were all of the modern sections. I was so excited for that game because I thought it was going to be an improved LoS1 but with a much truer Castlevania aesthetic, but instead if was a huge step back in nearly every way except for the core combat.
>>341110149
>don't use this example I don't like
>>341110149
>Super isn't the best game
>>341111708
Not him, but he's right. Super is fantastic but a tad too easy. Castlevania 3 is the best classic game.
>>341112076
in context in sounds like he's saying its not that great.
>>341109323
>He literally made the MC his waifu.
There's always one poster in these threads who spouts the same shit about Shanoa being Iga's wife. FUCK YOU.Because none of them posted a pic of Iga's wife so far

>>341111708
It's boring over rated trash. Only nostalgia saves it. It's so god damn slow. Step down from 1-3.
>>341111245
That stage also has some issues with popping, though not as bad.
Bad image on such short notice, but this is what I mean. There's color contrast. Alucard, the ceiling, and floor are all distinct.
In what we've seen so far, the stages look all kind of dull colors and mostly just variations on brown. The cannon is brown, in a brown stage. It should be silver to stand out.

Why does no one ever mention X6800/Chronicles?
>>341111708
I'd go with CotM or DoSJulius mode
and CV1/3 for classicfags
>>341112530

games younger than me and I didn't even play it till 20. All direction whip and swinging is pretty damn fun.

literally the most retarded shit ever, parroted by idiots desperate to seem like they know fuck all about objective design critique when no such thing exists.
>>341036108
Get rid of the boobguard or whatever that is
WHERE IS THE DEMO, IGA
>>341112934
I didn't mention it because 3 is better.
>>341112530
I like how you used that screenshot to try to support your point but in reality it suffers from the same color problems you're criticizing Bloodstained for: dark object onto a dark background.
>why isn't it silver?
>>341048076
Nah it's great. The game gets more discussion and publicity.
I actually look forward to these threads because almost everyone who backed seems pleased with the game so far (I know I am) so after the first hundred posts of shitposting, the rest of the thread is usually pretty nice with some retards here and there.
>>341114072
Gothic and Neo-Gothic churches ARE over designed ugly as hell monstrosities.
Neo-Gothic is one of the WORST 19th century movements ever.
>>341114072
Not a meme though. Sometimes you cram some shit with details and it looks amazing. Sometimes you make a good design and fuck up later by adding more stuff and it ends up looking goofy instead of nice.
>>341111708
Not when Bloodlines,, III, Rondo and Chronicles exist
>>341110149
It was done on an snes. Very impressive
>>341036108
nothing
now fuck off and eat your MN9 garbage
>>341114685
The colors are so much worse and muddier in Bloodstained.
>>341115387
Probably one of the finest examples of Mode 7 graphics on the console.
>>341116158
>compressed video from a three second clip on a stream
>>341116158
Actually the cannon is easier to distinguish on the Bloodstained screen.
I'd have liked something akin to a 3DS port, even if it is a downgrade.
Just feels right considering Ecclesia was on the DS.
>>341115234
Super is better than all of those except 3.
So did they show the demo already? I haven't followed an e3 in years
>>341036108
Why is this shit meme thread still up?
>>341118208
Yeah no.
>>341118392

>>341118051
It's on the Vita instead.
>tfw Vanillaware games, HGH and Bloodstained on my Vita
>whilst having the remaining Shantaes and Metroids on my 3DS
It's like 2D games never truly died. I'm so happy.
>>341118685
Project harder, faggot. I beat them all. Rondo is especially overrated.
>>341119034
>It's on the Vita
Oh, well then it looks like I'm getting a copy. Thanks anon.
>>341118337
It turned into Bloodstained discussion thread, just like every BS shitposting thread in the past week.
That and we're waiting for the demo.
