I wonder if they are taking the Reverse Castle into consideration with those calculations.

I hope not, as big as the original was I always felt myself wanting more. Also with other areas that were not part of the castle like in some of the older games.

Pretty sure he was clear it was counted and it’ll be like x2 bigger then sotn.

The other issue I had not really entertained is Dracula and his mythos is public domain.

He can’t use the Belmont’s but they could totally reuse just about any monster they want from the castlevania games.

does that include bosses?

i wouldn’t mind seeing these again :

Yea no to Legion.

If you buy Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night on Xbox One or Windows 10, you’ll be able to interact with your friends on other Microsoft owned platforms.

Revealed at Microsoft’s Gamescom press briefing, we also got our first glimpse at a brand new character, who is as of yet unnamed. We do know he’s a dual sword wielding demon hunter who can utilize Japanese spells while hunting demons.

I think legion might be public domain seeing as how it stems from the bible.

Mark 5:9King James Version (KJV)

9 And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.

Roguelike dugeon?

Goodbye life.

Who gives a fuck about the game, where is my Bloodstained pachinko machine?

That’s not why I was saying no to Legion.

Alright then sorry. What was it then?

Im tired of fighting Legion. It’s not a good boss, or at least not good enough to keep coming back as many times as he has. It was cool the first time but has lost its bite, Legion it’s not of the quality to need to keep coming back.

I’d also like Bloodstained to just give me more new shit to fight. I’ve fought Legion already.

Don’t worry Crotch. This time you’ll fight Battalion :dizzy:

Yd

Id like more Egyptian lore.

You’d know, now that i thiknk about it. Summerian space gods would make for a bad ass game.

ę–¬ęœˆ — Zangetsu — 42 — Male

Coming from a small country far away in the East, Zangetsu specializes in fighting demons. He makes his way to England when the demons first show up 10 years before the main story of Bloodstained begins.

He uses a dual katana fighting style along with Japanese ā€œofudaā€ paper incantations to destroy his demonic foes.

During his long battle to keep the demons at bay he loses his left eye and right arm. Using a special Ofuda spell he is able to animate a wooden prosthetic arm to nearly the same level of mobility as his original arm. The Ofuda that covers his missing left eye grants him the ability to see both auras of both the living and dead.

He lost a great deal of friends during his 10 years of fighting, creating an absolute hatred for not only the creatures themselves but also the Alchemists that brought them to the Earth.

More from IGA:

Zangetsu is a character I came up with when trying to answer this question: What happened in the lost time between the appearance of the demons on earth and Miriam’s awakening 10 years later?

In all my games I’ve never had a Samurai character appear, much less a character from Japan, so I’m using the opportunity of working in this new universe to try something new.

The character is an interesting blend—he wears a Western coat, reminiscent of the era, but has it half open, which is a very Japanese style. I wanted to show off a bit of his wild nature with the design. We are still working out the Ofuda concept, so please bear with us.

It’s kind of ironic—I was able to come up with Miriam, Johannes, and Gebel’s name rather easily, but landing on a good Japanese name ended up taking a long time.

At the pax panel they confirmed some customisation options available for Miriam.

  • You can switch different head gear such as hats
  • Based on what you’re wearing, the parameters will change and you’ll also get different boosts.
  • You can change the color of accessories and it is possible to change Miriam’s hair color

Dat Shovel Knight shoutout XD
