This makes me so happy. Between the Netflix show and Smash a whole new group of Castlevania fans are being made.
I've got a five page essay due tomorrow that I'm halfway finished with and five-six page essay due next Wednesday that I still have yet to start. And I've got finals in three classes that I have to study for. I barely have time to slack off here, let alone play video games.
Nothing, at the moment. Though, the last game I was playing, was Dark Chronicle...
FInished Symphony of the Night not too long ago, it was a game I had been planning to get through for ages, and Richter getting into Smash was the final push I needed to get it done. Fantastic game aswell, and not that long either (I completed it in 7 hours iirc), so I can definitely recommend it. I also replayed Metroid Prime for the millionth time, can never get enough of that game.
It was 10:00 AM EST
But isn't Duster also a spirit?
Have there been other mini-directs besides just that one? If so, when did they drop?
it was thr opposite for me, i played it everyday even at college
That's good to hear. To be honest I kinda miss getting high grades.
Sony doing something that Nintendo did it first? that would be such a big surprise...
The Netflix series was my first exposure to the series but I didn't actually get around to playing the games until after Simon and Richter were announced. I was planning on starting with SotN but I started first with CVI and CVIII since those were shorter but I did eventually play SotN and I loved it.
I'd say it does. That's just me though.
Clearly posting on Smashboards is helping you with English. Who said we aren't educational?
Same here, have it on my SNES Classic.
Oh hey look, Sony's copying Nintendo,
I'm in a similar boat lol. I had interest in the series due to it's legacy, bought Lords of Shadow Mirror of Fate which I did enjoy, played the original years later, saw Somecallmejohnny/SGB's videos on the matter and got more interested. I told a friend of mine about the rumours about Simon and he, a Castlevania nut, squeed and after hearing I wanted to get into the franchise more, snagged me a copy of Portrait of Ruin which I adored. Then the Belmonts actually got in and I got Super CV4, Aria of Sorrow and Order of Ecclesia, which is now one of my favourite games of all time
My 1st semester has been... OK-ish.
Red Dead Redemption 2 still has me sucked in and I've gotten back into The Binding of Isaac, but I've also been considering buying the Spyro remaster.
Spain doesn’t have to go to school/college/university that day either.
Order of Ecclesia, Rondo of Blood, and Symphony of the Night are my favorites. I used to play Simon's Quest a ton as a kid and Order is basically the ideas from that game except, y'know, good. As much as my head knows that if we got another Castlevania rep it should be Alucard or Soma Cruz, I would die on the spot if it was Shanoa. So happy OoE has two remixes in Smash.
Kirby Star allies, and in 3 days is my BDay and I'm pretty sure my brother is gonna get me Mario Odyssey, so that will do too.

It's more a God of War-ish hack and slash with a reboot storyline. It's alright for what it is but it's a radical departure in gameplay and the established lore. Mirror of Fate tries to mash that new formula into a Metroidvania style castle to mixed results.
Actually it doesn't, both Order of Ecclesia songs are taken from Harmony of Despair. Although those are still phenomenonal remixes
I have about 800 things to do for university this week, then next week I have finals.
Some people are into it. I'm not. They're fine in a vacuum, I guess, but they're not really in the main timeline and I just didn't find the whole God of War vibe very inspired.
Thank God I'm finished with classes at 1 pm.
Lords of Shadow was far from the worst 'reboot' an established series tried to have, but it's still pretty bleh. The first game just felt like a mediocre amalgamation of games that were popular at the time and was an "okay I guess" hack and slash at best. Took itself a bit too seriously (Even though I actually think the story is pretty okay), and just kinda took what made Castlevania unique and just reduced it to textbook, by the books medevil fantasy.
