This one aged honestly better than I remember. It's a simple 3D action game that strikes me as bit repetitious, but it was short and sweet, and the translation of 3D for whip combat was much better realized here than Castlevania 64 for sure. I also appreciate NOT feeling like I have to hunt and grind weapons and xp like many of the IGA titles. Still, please enjoy another Castlevania installment, and from here I intend to add them in timeline chronological order (so next would be Curse of Darkness).
The next RECAPitation will be: Xenosaga Episode II
I love me sum Castlevania😎amazing job well done👏👏👏👏👏👏 can't wait for the next one😎
What Castlevania are you going cover after Curse of Darkness, Castlevania 64
You know I'm surprised you didn't go through the secret game play as the vampire boss you fought earlier in the game.
I love that the Castlevania Anime found a way to incorporate Leon Belmont into the story with the vault and his portrait!
Yes...yes
You gotta love that level of continuity!
Am I the only one who is impressed with the amount of alliteration used in this video?
Meh, I found it more annoying and gimmicky personally.
its so sad that castlevania ended it was such a marvelous series of games and a whole big image story
Low key though, the PS2 Castlevania titles caught a lot of flack from reviewers of the time, but they're both pretty darn fantastic. Having gone back to them recently, they're actually better than I remembered.
I don't remember anyone actually reveiwing them poorly at all.
In fact most reviews at the time priased it for "Finally being a good 3D Castlevania" after the misteps of the N64 games.
@@ZigealFaust Maybe I was just reading the wrong magazines back then xD
Then again, being really negative and snarky in reviews, even towards a decent game, was pretty in-vogue in the early 2000s
@@HybridAngelZero I was gonna say, I def remember a review shitting on it for "Not being the next SOTN" but everything else they said was pure praise.
I actually never knew they did the origin story. This is amazing, thank you for your hardwork as always.
Awesome alliteration abounds.
Nicely done!
The one game i never got to play.
So i really like that some ppl do these recaps.
After all these years, I still remember exactly where to stand in that moonlit hallway to duplicate your gems.
Towards the top left. Its not as strict as you might think.
@@donkeykongisytpooping3002 True, but like, its still weird thing to remember after over a decade. This game got a lot of hate when it dropped and as a castlevania fan since finding 1 in an arcade as a kid it is in my top 3 in impact it made on me.
There is simply not enough praise about your dialect and script. You truly outdid yourself on this one sir.
I never got the hate for this game. It definitely wasn't groundbreaking 3D action considering that you had games like Devil May Cry and Shinobi for that, but not everything has to be. I liked its relaxed pace with some gauntlets here and there (which never really got frustrating), and simple bosses with death being a decent challenge. I found the difficulty to be not far from games like SotN. To be honest, the incredible music was enough for me with the inoffensive game mechanics. The game didn't overstay its welcome and you even got a secret character. If the whip combat were a little more varied, I'd say it was a great. As is, it was good enough.
Descending down the dismal depths of the deadly dungeon on a demented disc? Well played, sir. Well played
Joachim loses against your mastery, but when you play through as Joachim he is OP AF.
Chris: Leon! Oh wait, wrong franchise
back again with another banger!!! Thumbs up. I played this shortly after high school.
30 minutes, and two RECAPitations watched. This is one of my favourite Castlevania titles, and I've been excited for it ever since you said you were working on it in the stream. I also didn't realise I had an intense need for dangerous depths of deadly dungeons on demented disks until I watched this one. Thanks again, Black Mage, and keep at this labor of love.
The legendary Vampire Killer's origin, as well as Dracula's hatred toward the Catholic Church, are brought into light in this short-lived but wonderful tale. I do wish the name Dracula was brought into play in a more organic fashion than just in the epilogue, but this is still a solid game even if you removed all plot and story elements and just focused on the gameplay. Thanks very much for this RECAP, and I'll meet you on the next battlefield.
Well, Dracula/Mathias never hated the church at this point in time. He hated God which is completely different. His hatred for the church started after Lisa’s crucifixion sometime in the 1470s. But at the same time, Lisa’s crucifixion wasn’t just the churches fault, her death was a product of Carmilla starting the witch trials so that she could kill off the Belnades clan since they were causing her problems. She mostly succeeded in killing off the Belnades clan but Sypha was able to be taken in by the Eastern Orthodox Church and worked for them as a monster hunter to uphold her end for amnesty from the trials.
OH! That was some good alliteration! LOL
This game still holds up today
It does think it even plays at 60fps
Can you do all the tails games in order please, you’re amazing!
If someone would unite Parasite Eve and Castlvania... imagine the possibilities.
I'm late to your channel but I've watched like 6 today they're great
just watched the castlevania series on netflix & i got curious about this series. thanks for the upload lol perfect timing
In the Belmont underground lair it shows a painting of the main character from this game when Trevor is talking about the first Belmont who became a Vampire Hunter.
Fighting Death was No Easy Task Sir!!! Lol Love your vids, Keep them coming!!!!
one of the best 3d vania games
Why did the whip get upgraded when he killed Sara.....but no when Ronaldo used it to kill her vampire daughter....
Nevermind there was a spell he had to do first....but couldn't have Ronaldo prepared for that and set it up for his daughter?
@@coby4482 She had to be a willing sacrifice, which I don't think Rinaldo's daughter was
@@coby4482I know this is an old comment, but the upgrade for the Whip of Alchemy required the soul of a willing vampire, by the time Rinaldo found his daughter she was already fully turned, hence why she killed Ronaldo’s family before running off. As opposed to Sara who was in the beginning stages of the change since Walter had just bitten her before returning her to Leon.
I really want this game on the PS4, I don't even care if it is a remastered or just a port I just want to be able to play this again and having trophies will be a plus too
Same.
So Mathias is Dracula. Damn didn't know that.
Rinaldo best boy
I love a good origin story ^^
I have this game, along with another ps2 title.
This game brings back memories. My little brother had stolen this game somewhere and offered to sell it to me. I agreed I'd buy it if he let me have a day to play it.
I woke up, started playing and didn't stop until I beat it. I promptly returned it to him and told him I was done so no deal.
Dick moves just run in the family. Also, unlocking Joaquim as a playable character was awesome.
quick question. will there be any recapitation videos for the dragon quest series, the xenoblade chronicles series and white knight chronicles 1 & 2?
i was wondering about this because of the hero from dragon quest 11 joining super smash bros ultimate as a dlc newcomer and thats why im asking
Dragon Quest - Yes
Xenoblade Chronicles - Sure
White Knight Chronicles - Maybe
@@OniBlackMage cool
The only issue i would see about wkc is that dogma wars was a japan only release of i remeber which is supposed to be a prequal/bridge for 1&2.
@@darkmao3273 yeah that is a good point. and i ended up skipping it because of that and just started with the first and second game
Can't but notice you haven't done legend of legaia yet lol
Are you not going to do symphony of the night?
I'm the 74th like but hey this guy always deserves a like✌😎
God that alliteration is on point
tbh the alliteration is becoming a bit too much for me, would prefer clear and concise over clever.
Ease up on the aliteration, dude.
Your narration needs work. You speak too quickly and tend to slur words together. Other than that, this was a quite well written video with solid production values. I’d really be interested in your content if you could practice that monologue and fine tune it.
Ay, it's me, ya boy, first
I was the 69th like :D
ugh shadows gave a better origin story. this is dumb ,-,
How so?
Abundant alliteration always annoys audience.
Love the videos in general, but sometimes it feels a bit cringey and forced (great in moderation though).
Interesting, because its deliberately done less here since there is more normal exposition.
@@OniBlackMage I did say (great in moderation) xD
Agreed. Comes off as an overwrought gimmick.
Wdym by alliteration??
