How in the hell can a mere Gameboy game be so powerful?

Because it's a Gameboy Advance game

SotN was the prototype but AoS was the apotheosis
AoS represented a moment of clarity where every failed idea from SotN was cast aside and every good idea was led to its logical conclusion

Meme game that's only popular because "omg I WUZ Dracula all along?! :O". All 3 GBA games control and sound like shit compared to SoTN or the DS titles.

I’ve never played any of the GBA games. Are they as piss easy as SOTN? Is there any semblance of a challenge?

>> No.10834574

>>10834463
AoS, DoS and PoR are just as piss easy as SotN
HoD is average
OoE and CotM are the most difficult ones but they're so absurdly exploitable that they (potentially) loop back around to being the easiest

DS titles are literally scooby-doo games with awful touch gameplay.

I don't care. I love this game.

Why does this great game get ignored so much?

AoS falls short of SotN on every aesthetic level (art, animation, effects, resolution, characters, music, sound). It’s the low-budget sequel where they distilled some gameplay ideas

It's janky, broken and off-putting at a surface level
These qualities give it flavor and elevate it into something great while at the same time filtering normalfags into oblivion
It's a win-win situation

Jank is not what actually makes a game bad, retard-kun
Jank is just a grimy surface coating that gives a game roughness and personality, yet it's something non-gaming normalfags like you can simply never look past
CotM is, in fact, excellent in aspects that actually matter, and the fact there's a barrier to entry in enjoying the game makes the experience that much more rewarding
I hope you play more video games and grow up one day kiddo

Castle was boring as fuck, enemies bare bones, equipment variety non-existent and only bosses worth of note were death and the mandatory Belmont fight. The bullet souls were bland as fuck and really improved in DOS.

Also game was easy as fuck, not Sotn easy where you were broken, but just plain easy where nothing gives you challenge no matter what
