so, ive always been a HUGE fan of the castlevania games. Almost blindly so. Ive owned almost every castlevania game regardless of even owning the system.
When I heard about this game, I got really excited, and really scared at the same time. It has huge potential for neatness, but its also not an established series and quite frankly if you dont know what youre doing with fighting games, chances are youre going to make a flop.
That being said, i swallowed my pride and went out and bought the game today. I figured even if it was trash, i would still get to see a few hours worth of visual candy. (Personally, i dont hate the new designs. Yes i prefer the old ones, but i rather like some of the new ones. Sypha and Trevor in particular.)
Ive always had fun with powerstone ish games, so what the hell.
Turns out ive been very pleasantly surprised. The game is just fun. Its not super deep, but it has a little bit of depth. The camera problems can get annoying at times, but its honestly minor. Theres a neat system that involves canceling out normal strings into jumps, specials, or items, or guard breakers. Played a few matches online, had a really fun time with it. No pressure trying to get better for tourneys, so it was just a fun time. The online ran really smooth too.
Anyone that doesnt have it and considering it have any questions?
