        The joke is more that any vampire that looks and sounds specifically like Bela Lugosi is "a dracula". Count Chocula is "a dracula", Count Spankula from Kids Next Door is "a dracula".

            It more about how the concept of vampires got boiled down into one very specific interpretation of one character, which has made them hokey and not scary.

            Castlevania is bright as frick. The art direction is gothic, but Castlevania really isn't that serious as a horror IP. You have Drac and Death tag teams, live-in librarians, maids, skeletal house staff. FFS the first few games used 1950's movie monster designs as a source. Castlevania is far from serious and you didn't grow up with the advertisements or games in real time. The only games that I distinctly remember going for that "this is supposed scary and srs" were Circle of the Moon and Symphony of the Night. Maybe Curse of Darkness and Rondo too.

                It had blood; the intro was pretty hardcore which I felt set the mood--especially since you can miss Maria. Can't get around the poppy anime look, though. I'm honestly just going by my impressions of it when looking at ads and articles about it when I was younger when Rondo was still rare. It's honestly along the same feeling you would get looking at SCIV ads or looking at it at a glance. Still your point stands--Rondo is bright and Japanese too.

          The stories take themselves mostly seriously besides some dry humor here or there, it's always the bonus content that's more comedic. Like tearing through Rondo of Blood as a literal overpowered little Maria who makes the game more lighthearted, or running around as the fricking girl Axe Armor doing silly animations for certain interactions in Portrait of Ruin. I think Portrait is probably the most unserious game of the series thinking about it.

        Castlevania IS silly but it fully accepts its own goofiness and plays itself straight. That's what "camp" is, you brain dead fricktards. "Camp" does not mean ironic self-aware Reddit snark and memes saying LOOK AT HOW SILLY THIS IS LOL! BIG CHUNGUS AM I RIGHT FELLOW REDDITORS?
        Castlevania is campy, while this indie game abortion is insincere irony for bugmen. And the saddest part is I still don't think you understand the difference.

            How do you frick up a character worse than that? I would argue Captain N Simon is still more true to Simon than Netflix Richter is to Richter simply because he's at least a heroic soul who wants to do good. Netflix Richter is a coward with everything handed to him that loses his wits when his natural talent runs out. It's like someone wanted to make Joseph Joestar into a Belmont.

            As long as they don't attempt to make a profit from them then fan games (yes even using the actual names and shit) are 100% fair game, only homosexuals like Nintendo and apparently Konami disagree with this. Other companies don't give a shit because there's objectively nothing wrong with them existing.

    Sad when less than half of the games in your franchise are any good. The good ones are really good. The rest are forgettable shit like Bloodlines and Circle of the Moon. Without the Castlevania name, they would just be discarded outright. In no order:
    >Aria

    >III
    >IV is okay but not amazing
    >Rondo

          Bloodlines is the opposite of boring, it's so over-the-top, hyperactive and scatterbrained that it actually becomes obnoxious.
          And either way, your console homosexualry argument is invalid because Bloodlines is better than SCIV in pretty much every way.

            I said SCIV was just ok. Also if anything that reinforces my argument, because you go immediately to the Nintendo game to try and tear it down to bring Bloodlines up lol.

            It had the best soundtrack of any castlevania ever on its release (not counting Akumajou densetsu VRC6 as it was Japanese only)

            Music doesn't make a game good, though. Besides that, Castlevania needs to have solid music as a bare minimum to even be a Castlevania game. It's part of the identity.

              You misunderstood my point. Bloodlines isn't hailed as some all-time masterpiece, but SCIV is, despite being a much worse game. Both the SNES and Genesis had much better games on them so why would console homosexualry play into that? The reason SCIV gets more praise is because it's a casualized shit with muh cinematic atmosphere and music, and that's all normalgays can comprehend when judging video games.

    Surprised this is actually followed through on, played the demo on itch a while ago.

            Its been bad since Susan Whatever her surname is, raped it with the apocalypses caused by that homosexual Carloz Maza, DaddyOFive, and the pedo content farms that made those creepy Youtube Kids videos, now its even worse with the shorts when they CONSTANTLY pushed on mobile front page, freaky chumbox clickbait, all for the favor of India and China.

            You all know its true.

        They only know how to copy and dont make anything original. Then when their games sell a lot their egos are inflated. Obnoxious c**ts all of them.

          There are a lot of indie games that had fairly original concepts or at least different enough to be a standalone. The above example is pretty bad though.

    >All this parody and pet the doggo shit
    Enough already. We're past the age of Newgrounds parody shit or early indie game scene. I know from the responses ITT that either the dev or some PR person is here, stop being some unfunny internet losers and be genuine with your games for once.

    Game looks fun. I'm currently making a game where if you walk up to a dog a button prompt appears above them and if you press it you kick them across the map.
