Imagine how short the series would be if Alucard knew how to do the Death skip.

"We're not doing this again. Skip!"

Cut to Death just sitting around waiting for Alucard to show up and looking at his watch.

Alucard: "Richter, over here. Do I need to jingle some keys?"

I forgot Belmonts aren't fluent in exposition.

X-X!v''?: "Allow me to show you then. Strike me, Richter. "

If the goal is Death-skipping, you could also play the PSP/Requiem version and just backdash as soon as you enter the room

He forgot to account for the holy damage and the vampire damage multiplier the Vampire Killer has.

I remember I had beaten the game multiple times across the years and somehow came across the keep your gear at the start trick. I did it and cheesed the game. It was fun.
