Graves is my favorite Castlevania character. I loved the card system. It felt like the possibilities are endless, but I was about 8 after all.

Does the game ever explain how to do summons? I didn't find out until after I beat the game and was perusing through Gamewinners for things I missed.

These games are literally already all on PC. Why are you so excited for official emulation? It will be the same thing but worse, these official emulators are always low effort and full of minor glitches, and they never get updated.

That's the GBA in a nutshell. Thanks to the shitty original GBA model, the entire library adopted a gaudy Easter egg color palette to compensate.

>>7877701
Dawn actually lets you do touch controls for non-obvious soul uses, like Alura Une and Abaddon, which will work mostly without it but will attack in the direction you tap if you use it. Alura Une in particular gets enormously boosted DPS by doing it and becomes one of the most powerful damaging souls in the game compared to how it normally waits before doing attacks. Abaddon is take it or leave it, you just kind of tell it where to go for a couple seconds and some of it was likely going to scatter there anyway.

>> No.7878552

I expect that they will steal someone's existing re-coloration hack on at least one game, and that they will be caught stealing someone's emulator code as well. Konami are useless people and they don't give a shit about Castlevania.

I like how strongly colorful it is and how it uses contrasts, makes me think of Suspiria.

Just emulate. Hook up any kind of passable gamepad and set up its binds, and you're good to go.

It really is a very tacked on system. There's a romhack for taking it out, and the game, and I have to say that it improves the flow of the game tremendously.

Death and Abaddon, and it's actually not that hard. You don't have to be precise with it, especially the outer edge, just draw a circle rather than a hexagon. I do agree it was a shit mechanic though.
