Just don't make a Castlevania 3D - I have suffered enough already... There’s a Castlevania on N64, and two on PS3. They’re 3D but still pretty sweet games.

I played those games and they were decent especially the one on the N64 but lord of shadows and the sequel wasn't really that good at all. I mean the gameplay was alright but the games strayed far away from the original lore into some crappy alternate reality thing. That is one of the main reasons most of the castlevania fans including myself never really liked those 2 games.
Alyxx Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 Yeah I'm more into oldschool Castlevania personally.
The Blackangel Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 NES Castlevania were the best ones. SOTN is good, and I play it a lot, but the old NES games are my preference.
kingpotato Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 Unpopular opinion here I didnt liked the original castlevania games that much, they are good but the only one I actually enjoyed was symphony of the night. I've never played a 3d castlevenia game as well.

SOTN is definitely number one for me as well because this was one of the first times we ever got to play as Alucard and Alucard is an absolute beast!

Oh yeah I did played Aria of sorrow and Dawn of sorrow on the DS but SOTN was the one I enjoyed the most.
The Blackangel Posted October 17, 2019 Posted October 17, 2019 Most people think I’m insane for this, but Castlevania 2: Simon’s Quest has always been my favorite.

The Blackangel Posted October 18, 2019 Posted October 18, 2019 I think it’s in the same boat as Zelda 2, for the reasoning behind the hate it got. It’s considered one of the most difficult Castlevania games. At least from the era. That’s why a lot of people hated Zelda 2. It was too difficult.

Nowadays, I learn to appreciate such games because most of the games created in this era are ridiculously easy for the most part and they hardly have any longevity because of that.

Well Zelda 2 was ridiculously hard, they kinda over did it.

I remembered how ridiculously frustrating it was playing Zelda 2 but I could do with more of those nowadays but then again I also like Dark Souls and Monster Hunter so I am always up for a good challenge.
The Blackangel Posted October 19, 2019 Posted October 19, 2019 (edited) I loved Zelda 2 from launch. The difficulty pissed me off constantly, but it was also what kept me coming back to the game. The determination to beat it kept me playing until I finally kicked Shadow Links ass. That was the greatest, and only feeling of accomplishment I ever had in my entire childhood.
