The Castlevania/Bloodstained Thread: Whip It Good


Recommended Posts

Posted

I don't know if we have a CV/BS thread here already or not, but if not, here we go.

 

Been getting back into Bloodstained RotN lately while waiting for the patch to make Vigil: The Longest Night better playable on the Switch. Speedrun mode is a lot of fun but tough because in order to get a good time, chances are you're going to be underleveled and that's especially a problem with bosses (which is where Ive been having most of my trouble.) 

 

Boss Revenge mode? Fun AF. Getting to play ALL these characters (besides Bloodless who is coming as a main game character this month) in the main game would be really fun and something I kind of hope they implement at some point.

Im looking forward to Bloodless. She has potential to be fun. 

 

Did you ever scoop Curse of the Moon 2? Think I'm gonna give up on waiting for the physical and just buy the digital. Waits been too long at this point. Even starting to have doubts it gets any kind of physical at all.

Yeah she's been fun in the Boss Revenge mode. Tbh all the boss characters are pretty fun since they have different play styles, and I'm hoping that VS mode incorporates them if it in fact sees the light of day. 

 

As for cotm2 I haven't yet. I liked CotM and 2 is on my wishlist but its not something I was super excited about when it was announced. Is it better than the first?

I dunno. Was hoping for your opinion. Everyone I've talked to about it (only a handful) have said it's great tho.

I liked the first one but I didn't love it. It was really good but not enough that I absolutely had to have the second one. 

 

I'll tell you what I DID just pick up though is this: https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/wallachia-reign-of-dracula-switch/

 

Looks like Castlevania IV meets Rastan/Sword Of Sodan and I prefer retro styles in that vein moreso than the 8 Bit style.

I was more or less just happy to have a new "true" CV game. 

 

I've looked at Wallachia a few times. It's on my radar but I'm more interested in Vigil right now. Might try to scoop that in the middle of the month.

Yeah I hear you, it scratches that itch and it was pretty good. Just feel like I got my fill of it (I played cotm1 a LOT) so maybe that's part of it. 

 

I just bought Vigil last week but from what I hear there are some pretty gamebreaking glitches in the switch version so I'm waiting for the upcoming patch to start it. Been looking forward to that one for awhile myself though!

By the way, @RSG3 Wallachia is a really excellent game and I think you'll like it, it's on sale now too. It's kind of a shooter in the sense that Elcin's main weapon is a bow and arrows, but she has a sword as an offhand weapon that you can use to destroy projectiles, environment items that hold items, and even to kill enemies. The vibe is definitely Castlevania IV meets Rastan and I'm having a blast with it so far.
