/vr/ - Retro Games

Also no, that anon is just as clueless and made a bunch of other assertions based on /vr/ memery and possibly lack of memory (and I'm not assuming bad faith, mind you. But anons tend to have this mindless hatred of IGA for some reason and end up memeing lies or misconceptions to justify calling him a hack). Just to cite two, because I don't have the whole day:

>He wanted to work on something else (didn't say what), but Konami said no, then he picked Castlevania, as if saying "well, CV is the next big franchise on this list".

Wrong. Pic related. IGA went immediately to Castlevania after having been given free reign to choose WHATEVER game he wished.

Anon cited GameCenter CX's interview: IGA says the same exact thing in that interview, and also adds he was a Castlevania fan ever since being a child.

>IGA also doesn't like challenging platformers

Memery. IGA's favorite CV games are CVI, CVIII (arguably the two most challenging on the entire franchise) and Rondo of Blood. What is true is that he DID say he disliked the bottomless pits, but never once implied he dislikes challenging platformers. His reason to make SotN easier was to appeal to a broader audience.

Don't swallow anything /vr/ says just because it agrees with your opinion.
