- I've finally taken the time to play through Lament of Innocence on the Playstation 2. It wasn't as bad as I remember it back when I played it new, but still has some issues. Probably the biggest is how dark the game is with no brightness controls. I pumped up the contract and brightness by about 200% for the capture, so if you see me constantly walking into walls in the video, it's because I couldn't see what was in front of me with my TV brightness set to maximum.
Thanks a lot for watching.
This game was my childhood and probably one of my top 10 for sure. What's cool to is that if you watch the Netflix series there's a shout out to Leon for being the first Belmont to hunt monsters and founder. I just thought it was awesome they kept this with the time line.
Hi, I just wanted to say that I am glad you are reviewing this game. I found it to be pretty good, had some neat lore for the world of Castlevania, and sometimes I could really get into it, thanks in part to some of the music. I did miss the 2D level design though, there weren't a lot of pits compared to other titles. I will be looking forward to watching your video when I have time to do so. I wonder how accurate my memory of the game is… I haven't played it in about 15 years.
RIP Frodo. Looks just like my cat. Great video as always, thanks for the content.
Your only valid critiques are the voice acting (which is easily remedied by switching to the superior subtitles/japanese voice acting) and the camera, but honestly there is very little platforming in this game. That dark room platforming section at the end should've definitely been removed though.
Loved the game. Never played Devil May Cry but I believe that was the real reason this wasn't appreciated more. If you like Castlevania this was awesome when it came out.
Good review! The camera sure makes some parts way harder than they needed to be. I remember enjoying it despite its flaws, and I liked the challenging surprises of the hard mode.
Have you ever played Curse of Darkness?
I haven't had the chance yet to play Curse of Darkness. It's one of the only games in the series that I still need to play.
I have never played a 3D Castlevania. Looks decent and I think I might try it but then I see the platforming and that's a giant nope. I know that would piss me off to no end.
Yeah, there are only about 5 platforming sections, but they are beyond frustrating.
There was one after this with a character called Hector and I thought it was much better
Curse of Darkness is one of the Castlevania games that I still need to play, so it's good to hear that it might be the better game.
How about curse of darkness? Any good?
I just recently found a copy of the Xbox version of Curse of Darkness, but haven't had a chance to play it yet. I'm planning to get to it pretty soon.
sounds good man. Thank you! I really like the ds series too. Nothing like Sotn but.
I like the game,but i think that the castlevania games are very overrated.
