/vr/ - Retro Games

Contrary to popular belief, it wasn't Symphony of the Night which killed Castlevania, it was the proto-Treasure members involved on Castlevania 4's team that did, by fucking with and dumbing down the core 8-bit Castlevania gameplay which Akamatsu had envisioned for the series as seen in great CVs such as 1 and 3. If Treasure had respected his wishes and stayed true to authentic Castlevania gameplay, the series would have never lost its way, degenerating over the years after the snowball started rolling with 4.

In summary: Fuck Trashure for ruining Castlevania.

Castlevania 4. It's the fastest Snezz game to put the player to sleep due to how overly casualised and fucking boring it is.

It's the Super Castlevania Bros. of the Shinobi franchise. Way too fucking easy thanks mostly to the babbyfied gameplay.

Also, best Shinobi games are the ones that play like Rolling Thunder, see arcade Shinobi and the Shadow Dancers.

Whilst hardest may be up for debate, we can all at least agree that Stupor Casualvania Snore is the most pathetically easy. Even the second loop is a cakewalk. Fuck this game and its retarded shitplayer normalfag fanbase.

Beat pic related earlier today. 2nd time in my life. First was 5yrs or so back. Pritty gud. Still enjoy Bloodlines more(grew up with that one so nostalgia definitely plays a factor) but I love the atmosphere in IV.

>it was never funny
Well that's just wrong. It's still funny.
>it has no point of comparison other than the platform, and honestly, why shit on a good Castlevania game?
IV is a great game but like most Nintoddlers they can't take valid criticism of their beloved game(s). Hence why Super gets picked on more because anons take the bait.

>Not really worth playing because the game is the worst castlevania
That would be pic related.

Sonic 2 is the Super Castlevania Bros. of Sonic games. Adding spindash was as detrimental as SCB's 8-way multi-whip.
