Cleared hard mode today- not an enormous leap in difficulty. Should have added to the last post that the music is really good- thought it would all be 8 bit recycled tracks, but with the exception of the first stage it’s all new. Very Akumajou Densetsu sounding samples used.

I’m going to give classic mode a go tonight, I’m looking forward to finally getting my hands on it

Playing classic mode got me back into COTM2- man, what a great game. Really thinking it might be the pinnacle of classic CV- only real point I can knock it on is that the music largely isn’t up to CV standards (not bad, just not really CV tier).

I need to get around to cotm 2 but it seems more ninja gaiden than CV from what I can tell.
I’m enjoying Classic Mode though, it’s pretty tough in spots and it’s like getting a whole separate game from IGA.

Maybe once you unlock ultimate Zangetsu, but that’s going to be late in the experience. Definitely will need a deliberate pace most of the time, it’s much tougher than the first.
