You call Simon overrated yet name the two that are even more overrated.
theyâre overrated among the CV fanbase.
Simon is the kind of guy who would be the slave master over a bunch of Africans. That makes him UNAPPEALING.
Julius or GTFO.
Trevor is also acceptable, and I did like Leon personallyâŚ
We need more gangsta ass BelmontsâŚ
Simonâs an OG.
Lamest Belmont? Juste.
One of my personal favorites that I find to be underrated? Julius. Dudeâs a beast.
@PoPimpus I didnât like Leon much(although I enjoy his game, but hate the 2nd PS2 CV.) I liked Gabriel more, and even though Reinhardt isnât a Belmont and neither is John Morris, I liked them both over him too.
MOF Simon is probably the most masculine version of him yet. looks like a big ass bear
you probably want to be held in his arms.
Simon fans in a nutshell
lol if we are gonna start talking protagonists i would say that Richter has been my alltime fav belmont. never really given a shit about simon tbh
Julius will probably always be my fav Belmont just because using him in Aria just made you feel like an overpowering god that killed Dracula and made him stay dead.
So I forgot Juste had competition for worst Belmont: Jonathan Morris from PoR.
Even though the characters and story of PoR was absolutely fucking terrible, the gameplay and castle design was pretty cool. I guess Juste is the worst because Harmony is, imo, one of the worst games in the series and one of the shittiest Metroidvaniaâs.
Dunno, I kinda like this one as a kid:

Simple guy in cool armor with a whip looking for Dracula.
Was admiring that game so much on the shelf, but grandma was poor so I didnât get it.
Thank God, though that game is trash.
Sonia Belmont Bitches.
Sonia.
Your unpopular opinion is invalid.
Richter is best belmont by default because Shoryukenâs and insane versitality,
Omnia Vanitas is not legit, thatâs fucking magic. Richter had the power to use magic, but harnessed that shit to become Chi. for the fuck yeah.
who else was pulling of shinryukenâs parallel to Streetfighter in a sidescroller?
But seriously Eric Lecarde and Maxima shit on all belmonts.
itâs insane.
Ericâs theme is also way too sick for his own good.
Rivaling Bloodlines, and Simons theme Super Castlevania 4
Troll post or fuck you. Your pick.
Harmony of Dissonance is definitely one of the most horrible ones outside of ridiculous Maxim bullshit. Peeps who havenât seen the SDA speedrun should check it out, it wonât take long lol. CV2 had shitty translation issues and annoying grinding, but for its time you could still argue it was better than Harmony, which was mediocre, boring, and way too easy in general.
Also, as an example of why people will say SF4 is slow: go fire it up and get a feel for how much animation there is in Boxerâs c.HK. Now do the same in ST or CvS2. Regardless of how certain characters play, a lot of the arguably over-animated moves can make the game feel âoffâ for some people. Iâll still take it over the new KI though. I got to see that shit irl for the first time yesterday, and the animation still felt stilted and ugly even in 60 fps. It just makes me wish most 2.5d games took more after Battle Fantasia. Regardless of the character design in that game, besides the floatiness of characters walking I feel it did a far better job in terms of animation than the aforementioned games. As much as I hate MvC3 otherwise, that game did an overall solid job with it too .
The best Simon Belmont is Rob Stark.


This one would be runner up, if he was drawn better:

If Simon was really meant to have hair past his shoulders like Arnold in Conan, his sprite would have been drawn like Trevors. I think Simon just came out looking like Arnold in the covers because the artists couldnât paint without using hollywood photos as reference.
KOF 98>MVC2
that reminds me⌠playing thru SOTN as Richter >>>>>>>>> playing as alucard
Castlevania 64 was a good game.
Spoiler
Also Carrie Fernandez for best Castlevania character design

Dat NES CV2 boxart. So raw looking. Looks like some 50âs Dracula shit, I still have the cart, though I didnât like Simonâs Quest all that much. Itâs cool for what it went for design-wise, though.
Look at this cocky bastard, checkinâ himself out in the mirror and shit. Still better than anime Simon.
