This game is pretty sick, I was getting Castlevania III vibes from it, for sure.
Was a genius move, game to hold us over till Ritual of the Night comes out was brilliant.
Narration is a bit weird, and doesn't fit the game very much, it just seems like a fanfic story, gameplay is absolutely solid though, glad they put effort into it, as I would have been fine with just Zangetsu's story, the rest of it is icing on the cake.
I dunno which game will be better, but we'll see when they come out, I guess.
I feel like Ritual of the Night could've benefited from just having stylish 2D graphics as opposed to the admittedly not that good-looking 3D graphics, though I suppose we always have curse of the moon for that.
Never been big into the Castlevania series, only ones I ever played I ever played for longer then a bit are Castlevania IV, Lament of Innocence, and Lords of Shadow 1.
