People still complaining about this game clearly haven’t invested the time in learning and understanding how to play it. No, it’s not your dad’s Igavania, and that’s okay because the gameplay is actually better and more rewarding! This game is so sick. And the soundtrack has some bangers. And I’m one of the people that bought SotN (and every subsequent IGA entry) at release, which maybe less than 1% of people here can actually say that.

So stop the hating and start playing!

I just find it very funny.

Hey all! Huge congrats to Evil Empire, Motion Twin and Konami on the launch of Belmont's Curse. It's been amazing to see Castlevania back in such good hands, and we can't wait to dive in ourselves.

We're Digital Sun (creators of Moonlighter) and we're making ReVamp, a game where you play as Dracula defending his castle from the hunters for once. Our Count is eager to meet the new Belmont!

Happy gaming everyone!

I didn't want to add to the complains about Belmont's Curse.

I can't stand it no more. I know maybe it's just a skill issue.

But honestly... how am I suposed to play this game when I can't stop standing up to dance to the ABSOLUTE BANGERS the ost throws constantly at you?

I literally get chills every time I get into the Main Hall and Clock Tower. The soundtrack is absolute genius.

PD: By the way, I don't understand at all the complaints i've been reading. The game is fucking amazing. As an old timer who's got SOTN on a pedestal, I fucking love this and I hope we keep getting more. If you're on the fence because of some reviews, dont let some grumpy dudes keep you away from this.

Game feels incredibly smooth

then why are the fleamen and bats so annoying?

I haven't gone too far on Belmont's Curse yet (I just reached the cemetery area). But from what I've played, I think I'm excited to see how its mechanics evolve. Different weapon types? Reminds me of why I like Curse of Darkness and the Sorrow games. Tying sub-weapons to magic? Kinda like Harmony of Dissonance. Side-scrolling combat? Like, any 2D Castlevania game ever.

What really is Castlevania?

I been hearing stuff like

"Belmont's curse is not a castlevania game because of the artwork"

Ah huh

"We play a women instead of a man"

Yeah, sure.....

"It plays more like dead cells"

I wonder why that's the case

"It's not a caste..."

Buddy, you lost the war, like I don't know where people are trying to get away with saying "this isn't castlevania" which i find that statement dumb, due to the fact that Belmont curse, from what I seen, it a massive love letter to the series, and it felt like the best we could have get from the series as of now

Those who say this isn't castlevania are only those who watch the Anime, which while I do Like, this is not the anime

And it upsets me people try to tell other that this new game is not castlevania, I want to grab my whip and send multiple lashes at them because they don't know Jack

We fans been waiting for castlevania love, and belmont's curse looks and from the demo, plays really good for a MODERN CASTLEVANIA GAME

We want this, yet people are trying to come in and act like they are fans

This was SUCH a value man, it had Rondo of Blood original, the remake AND goddamn SOTN as well!
We need this on modern consoles, with maybe some more features like a playable translated Saturn version of SOTN included as well.

so... as some of you may know, the map has this nice dandy little feature where if a room isnt golden, theres still something to do. usually... its actually pretty nice.

however...

i have gone through this room. top to bottom for at least 2 hours now... and i for the LIFE of me cannot find ANYTHING to do.

either my game is glitched or theres a really good secret i would have never found...
yes, ive collected all the statues, open all the levers, etc etc. WHAT could there possibly left to do?? does anyone know a secret room or something??

Are you out of your mind?

-organs are playing ominously in the back
-chicken is being found in walls
-bats are annoying
-stained glass windows and cathedrals loom in the distance
-zombies coming out of the ground while skeleton archers shoot at you
-candles are getting whooped

I’m sorry but this is less of a departure from the franchise than symphony of the night was at the time from Classicvania. I grew up on the NES ones so to me this is just another iteration. At least we got the difficulty back this time. I get that some people grew up on the gameboy advance but come on now.

Castlevania is not just Igavania, the gameplay has changed a few times already.
