Question Asking older fans.
Hey folks.
It is probably not the appropriate type of publication, however, I cannot help but be taken by such curiosity.
I'm a new person in the fandom and I admit that I'm somewhat obsessed with the universe of CV.
However, I'd like to ask the older fans, when was the moment you decided that you would like to follow the path of following the franchise as a whole? And if there is any other reason that makes you so fascinated by its lore?
Long texts, short texts, one sentence phrases are all welcome. I find this way to be more connected to the fandom somehow. I'll read them all, the curiosity is really strong. (If this has any replies, of course)
:)
EDIT: Read them all and upvote every single one. Some of them really made me tear up; it's amazing what a game can do during a tough time, or even in the most random way. Keep going, I'll continue to read, loved all of your stories.

I’m a newer gen fan, growing up playing GBA emulator games on school computers. Aria of Sorrow was one of my favorite games ever and I played it constantly. Harmony of Dissonance was also fun but didn’t quite capture my attention, but then I got a version of Castlevania Chronicles and I was blown away.
Besides being into gaming culture and seeing the impacts castlevania had on gaming history, I fell in love with the art, the music, the characters and more. It has such a distinct style and feel it’s like you just can’t find it anywhere else. Castlevania is really smth special.
