Castlevainia is an extremely popular series in japan, with games covering multiple platforms, slot/pachinko machines which are cool as fuck, and even multiple fan made games like kumajo.

So how long till it gets a visual novel?

>> No.4057497

You mean the recent games weren't visual novels?

>> No.4057503

If Castlevania gets a VN, they'll get the Death Note guy to do the character designs again.

You can fucking bet on it.

That's what IGA's secret project really is.

DoS had some pretty shitty art, and in terms of style and detail it was worse, but I don't see how you could say the designs were anywhere near as offensive as the Judgement ones.

Fun Fact: Castlevania sells terribly in Japan. It's the western fans that keep the series alive.

I'm more concerned about Iga rather then the art.

I still feel Symphony of the Night was one of the best games ever made.

A VN of Castlevania would be a double edged sword. It may be fun to read, but would you want that kind of attention drawn to the community?

My main problem with DoS wasn't the generic animu art but the terrible enemy designs, some of the soundtrack, the generic villains, somehow they made Soma's luck even worse so grinding for souls=horrible and WHERE THE FUCK IS MY POSITRON RIFLE?

>> No.4057898

>>4057873
The enemies are mostly par of the course (GBA designs recycled mostly though), the soundtrack was fitting, though not great, and discounting Dracula and Death, Castlevania does not have great 'unique' villains. And I can do without the positron rifle.
