A huge step up from the first Chronicles entry.

Perhaps, but X68k Castlevania btfo's Dracula X, its remake, and SotN combined.

Is the original version the same as the pc engine or changed like supposedly the ps4 version is?

It kind of is, the emulation is a little wonky with some candles not scrolling at the same speed as the background

Why would anyone still bother with this crap now that Rondo is easily available everywhere?

/v/ modernshit argument. The game was designed around it, it doesn't have framerate issues like your modern unoptimized shit, /v/irgin.

The game is Rondo with a (ugly) coat of paint, which certainly wasn't designed to run like shit, subhuman retard.

It looks fun to me. I need to try Rondo again anyway since it was the first 'vania I played and I didn't know what I was doing the first time. Also still need to play SotN

The audio syncing in the animu cutscenes is off by a mile which is distracting as hell. I thought this might be because I played with an original-model PSP and so these might play more accurately on newer models, but no, this is still the case in the PS4 Requiem collection according to YouTube, which is downright baffling to me. How can they release it like that? Bizarrely, the hack of the original ISO that ports the English cutscene dub is timed better than the official release.

>> No.9985573

>>9985539
Yeah but cutscenes don't affect gameplay.
The problem with the original Chronicles is that it affected the balance of the original game mode also, and the remake got easier and faggier.
