@@CamposXO or belongs in it. Konami was very different in those times. Graceful they were with the delicacies of life that coarsed through their veins. Faulter they did not of their greed for greatly they have done us well in those times. It dreads me greatly that this song was merely a foreshadowing concept that would later be of treachery against those that beloved their work and the works of others in their field. Its shameful how much has changed over the years. It begs the question through the outcry of a hurt child within all of us only to say "why cant things go back to the way they were once before?" For the sounding of this violin shall tear through the hearts of many as we utilize it to comfort us in these dark times. Sad isn't it?
This theme represents Richter Belmont's death, a requiem. Even more interesting is that it was Dracula who plays this in the intro, either to mock the last of the Belmont line or to acknowledge the strongest foe the count ever faced.
Given how "triumphant" and then it turns grim. It could easily just represent Dracula acknowledging the strength of not just the Belmonts, but human spirit as a whole (And paying tribute to Leon Belmont who he was friends with.) But also the corruption of their greatest weapon, The Vampire Killer whip. Which we know uses Richter's memory to test wielders of the whip due to it being its last pure user in centuries... And the one who held it before Shaft's magic corrupted Richter and refused to fight (Since it still held the soul of Leon's lover: Sara Trantoul.) Now. A weakened vampire killer and Reinhardt Schnieder. a human with the blood of a Belmont. He will destroy Dracula's curse a little longer. Just until he can return the whip to the rightful family. Or that's my two pence.
Richter Belmont I would say is to show a little of respect for the Belmont. In Dracula X Chronicles, he had a short conversation with him, but a conversation that he found ''amusing''.
One could argument that Drac had a little more of respect to Richter than other Belmonts, mainly because he, at least, had a ''more razonable'' motive to fight against his forces. More than just ''is just because you are evil'', he believes that, under that behavior, Drac doesn't worthy of being alive, or at least, shouldn't be executing genocide. Drac can estimate opponents, specially if they try to understand his point of view.
At this point, we all know Richter will probably never be in the Castlevania Anime. Unless if there's a ending which is a few hundred years later or something, which I doubt.
Both C64 and Legacy of darkness are vastly underrated games to the point some call them(especially C64) some of the worst in the series. For my money, these were the best 3D Castlevania games in the series and certainly among the best. The atmosphere, music and story are 2nd to none in a Castlevania game. The Ps2 entries, while solid in their own right, did not have the same feel with the atmosphere and the environments such as the corridors get redundant. They also lacked all of the platforming elements that made C64 and LOD great games(tower of science, outer wall, clock tower, tower of sorcery, tower of execution, tower of ruins, etc). Malus made the perfect Dracula as well. It is too bad they never made more Castlevania games than these. But alas, the public is too obsessed with those 2d metroidvania games.
I remember watching a tier ranking of all CV games and one guy said “CV64 had a rlly unique story you don’t see in the other games” which I thought was neat. I haven’t played any games more recent than LOD lmao, but it’s interesting knowing CV64 is the only one who had a child Dracula? Malus was really neat, and this song is even more neat because in LOD it was said Dracula would come back to the tune of a destructive melody. So I’m guessing Malus, living in the cabin with his parents, played THIS SONG, and memories from Dracula came back to him. It’s mental, being some kid in a cabin only to realize ur the dark lord haha. I really enjoyed these two n64 games. (Also people cry at it being outdated but the Mario 64 controls are CRAZY outdated like that camera was ass, but u don’t see people trashing the whole game over it)
I do think it's fair to acknowledge how rough the controls and camera were in the 64 games, but I agree: no other titles in the series managed to capture so much atmosphere, mood, and general eeriness. For 1998 it was at times a genuinely creepy, sometimes terrifying (hello, hedge maze chase!) game, and that's not a feeling most other CV titles have really captured. Plus, the N64 titles seemed to really try and translate traditional Castlevania into 3D; again, that's something that hasn't really been tried again, and it's kind of a pity, since I think that could be done so much better today. And hey, they're the first games in the series that had more than one level with vampires as actual enemies, AND vampirism as a condition status, that's gotta count for something.
Castlevania 64 and Legacy of Darkness transfered faithfully the Castlevania atmosphere and style to 3D, the instant deaths, the annoying Medusa Heads and they knew how to make atmospheric music sound great that really immersed you in the game
@@Evilriku13 the bad controls are mostly the N64 stick's fault. I played it with a joystick and/or keyboard and the controls are tight The camera now is bs BUT somehow feels better on LoD, like u can control it better if u know what u doing and don't go all out like a scrub. After all, the 64vanias have a great deal of platforming, a lot of casuals came from Symphony of Easy and were unprepared for the unfairness of Castlevania platforming but granted, the woods in cv64 weren't the easiest way to introduce them to that 3D enviroment
yeah sotn was just way too easy. However, most ppl at the time were not coming from that. They had last played castlevania on the snes or genesis. cv64 was pretty good, and received as pretty good at the time. I had no problems with the camera really, as I played that era of games in the moment. It's a top 20 game on the system for me, and likely top 15.@@DaedalosC9
I was 11 listening to this masterpiece, playing Castlevania 64 at 12 at night on my own. I was so captivated by its story and characters, the mandgragora and thr necronomicon, such big words at the time. The bloodlines or families , Carrie Belnades and the Belmonts, or even the side characters that were also vampire hunters, were so original back in 1999. It's insane I used to play this even though it's filled with so much occultism, considering I grew up in a Jehovahs witness family. Fortunately, my God mothers' kids owned an N64, and it was practically mine. Thanks to that, I had a beautiful upbringing. My cousins would later watch me play it for hours and go on to become game designers. Later in life, I'd watch my kids play it for hours and share the story and fantasy lore with them.
It's kinda sad. I know that this game wasn't too astounding, but I genuinely enjoyed it nonetheless. But it is considered as a failure to the series, and a horrible game in general. But i would still play it if I had the chance.
They can think and say whatever they like, but the dark atmosphere, the loneliness and the sense of peril of this one no other Castlevania managed to capture. As for the music! Oh, the music...absolutely compliments the character of the game and is far more appropriate for a vampire game than the j-rock of the rest of the series. This was the first Castlevania I ever played and I could never play any of the others, because they could not much the atmosphere of this one. Not even the so praised SotN.
You've done the world a good service extending this, and god bless you for doing so. I think this song was what made me love the Violin so much growing up.
The beginning of Castlevania 64 is awesome, violin solo in title screen❤️ It's not a perfect game, not at the same level of masterpieces of the 32/64 bits generation but i enjoyed very much with It in 1998, great Game.
@El Padre con Verga Larga Tienes razón, en que estaría pensando 😁 el que si salió en 1998 fue RE2, que fue uno de los juegos que más disfruté en aquella generación.
I've never played C64, but this song mentally brings me to tears but I can't explain why. Makes me feel like I'm wandering through ancient ruins, like I'm witnessing a piece of humanity that no longer exists, like an ancient civilization or something. In a way the song feels nostalgiac too, especially the piano part of the song. As others have stated in the comments, this song is just a masterpiece.
Was six years old in 1998 and we picked this up from Blockbuster right before school, but I snuck into my room just to play for a bit. The intro music starts and it had me at a standstill, now all I wanted to do was listen to the music lol.
I used to just sit down and watch my brother play this game,hardly blinking,we thought it was great....except for skulls on bikes 😂😂,great theme though
This game got a bad rap back in the day. I was 9 when it came out and everything about this game has been seared into my brain. I believe this game had more influence than people gave it credit for. The use of 3D was ahead of its time, clunky but still serviceable. The atmosphere was perfect, dark and spooky, but not heavy handed, the characters you played as felt unique and brought strengths and weaknesses but the OST is by far the mvp of the game. For the time it has aged pretty well, and it has provided some of the most interesting and beautiful renditions of Castlvania oldies. The intro Opposing Bloodlines, the art and science tower and many others are just amazing at conveying the Castlevania feel.
This game's opening theme is the reason I became a Castlevania fan. I've played all Castlevania games and collected most of them physically even the Netflix series.
One of the few intros I never skip, and that says something when your music is so astounding. Nice work on the loop, friend. Finally running through this game. Fine work, great atmosphere, great music, and solid gameplay. Definitely worth a playthrough or two. Also looking forward to Legacy of Darkness.
It's the harvest moon. In ancient times people feared greatly that the souls of man would be reaped at the end times, but it was to teach us the reaping of the crops for the harvest. To apply this during the mid 1800's centered around a gothic lore and atmospheric adventure omnipotently lingering over the castle leaving a divinity vs goliath foundation of epic excitement of vast uncertainties that were waiting to be unveiled. Capturing a tale for you to unravel. Beautiful is it not as the music plays ominously in the background as you are reading this. Truly captivating that cold shiver slithering down your spine. The painting of the piece has such an excellent wonder for the eyes to feast upon.
This is why i love the Violin. Also where is Lindsey Sterling. Some one please share this song with her. I would like to see where she would go with it.
I was always a huge fan of the 64 games,Legacy Of Darkness especially despite the criticisms and certain mechanics (The Castle Wall level with the deadly No-Jump Nitro).Literally i would replay the hell out it.It had the perfect doom&gloom atmosphere with some disturbing moments like the bleeding statues&monster introductions and I mean,Cornell deserved way more spotlight in the series as the perfect character for the series.He was even badass looking too in that horrible tournament fighter Castlevania:Judgement.When I first heard of him in Lords Of Shadow,I was a bit irritated,but glad he was actually a different Cornell...I was disappointed Opposing Bloodlines wasnt part of the soundtrack though...I'll also never forget my first time going through the Maze Garden as a kid and the Frankensteins Monster with the chainsaw arm scaring the shit out of me to where I wanted to stop playing.These games are just full of memories for me and this song will always stay rent free in my mind.I liked it a lot better than the Dracula X version.
People s don't know how much this melody grabs people....I mean when I was a kid I Remember my teacher randomly started playing this in class while she was correcting papers...hahaha
I used to not start the game for awhile cause of this song. I think this game is so underrated i love this game. Sure it's not the best one in the series but still a solid game for it's time. Much love for an awesome game. One of my favorite games for the 64
I remember playing this game very long time ago. But just listening to the soundtrack again .Wow this opening theme song is so awesome. Was this only in Castlevania 64?
Honestly, this song sounds like a lament of all whose lives and/or families, friends and loved ones have been tainted, blighted, taken or outright ruined because of Dracula and his forces. It may be easy to miss, but this game especially highlights what happens to those who the forces of darkness prey upon and those whose lives are effectively stolen from them. Rosa. Camilla Fernandez. Charlie Vincent (if you take too long to reach the end). Heinrich Meyer. Actrise's daughter and the other 99 children her mother gleefully murdered. Henry Oldrey's parents. Ada's family and those killed by the man-beast tribe. The children Henry rescues. Several of the vampire enemies who were fed upon and forcibly turned (like the vampiress fought near the Underground Waterway entrance). The unnamed corpse found in the Forest of Silence. And even possibly Malus himself (possibly being the key word here.) This is a lament for those made casualties in this war against the Prince of Darkness. And a mournful dirge for the ones who couldn't be saved in this war against Castlevania's master now going into it's four century with no way of permanently killing Dracula in sight.
Reinhardt Schneider was Richter’s Great Grandson. Richter presumably had daughters, one of his daughters married a man named Schneider, she had a son named Michael Schneider, who in turn inherited the vampire killer and taught his son Reinhardt. The manual states that Reinhardt always was proud of how he was the direct descendant of Richter.
Not yet, but I wouldn’t mind if Legacy of Darkness got some kind of re-release. I never really hated CV64 back a while ago. I was disappointed with how Cornell was a broken character where not much changed if he did his werewolf transformation. But overall, I feel like it was a good first time at 3D Castlevania.
ngl I find it kinda funny that a large chunk of the comments on this video spoil the fact that Malus is really Dracula with the same cavalier attitude as someone spoiling the fact that Sephiroth kills Aerith at the alter in Final Fantasy 7.
Well bare in mind the name malus kinda gives it away. Malice being of malevolence. I played this game years ago. To see a child play violin so well and finding out his name later on. My goosebumps were trying to warn me, but did I not know he would be Dracula. The big twist indeed
@@1angelicdemon1Malus was a child, Dracula used him to reincarnate, killing him. Guess he couldn’t find his own kid as a victim of his scheme at the time.
this song bring me back to my childhood :'D when the games from nintendo was so goooood! and bloody xd because every game for nintendo now its to.."family friendly",so bad they not making a remake from this game
Nintendo didn't make this, Konami did. The closest Nintendo has done close to that "not family friendly" are the entire Metroid series... or every one of Kirby's final bosses.
Mesma musica do Super Nintendo mas com o calculo do metrônomo da musica bem lenta, e ainda esta canção da incrível Konami me encantou, só um violino ja deixou uma beleza e precisou de outros instrumentos claro como um piano, e

Richter Belmont Thank Bael you are dead, I couldn't stand you anymore
I don’t think Dracula even knew Richter had a theme song.
I don't know why i cry everytime that i hear this song, is so good brings me so memory's thanks :'(
This better be the opening theme for the Netflix series if Richter ever gets in
I wouldn't bet on it considering how averse they seem to be to using any of the classic Castlevania music in the series :(
That would be very sweet
At this point, we all know Richter will probably never be in the Castlevania Anime. Unless if there's a ending which is a few hundred years later or something, which I doubt.

The N64 games come the closest to capturing the feel of the old Hammer Dracula films the series is based on.

Sends chills down my spine.
Death of Richter Belmont's Song.
That's Cold, That is very cold.
damn, I'm sad now
I mean he was the last Belmont to wield the Vampire Killer until Julis in 1999.
F
It's kinda sad. I know that this game wasn't too astounding, but I genuinely enjoyed it nonetheless. But it is considered as a failure to the series, and a horrible game in general. But i would still play it if I had the chance.
Adam Hyde you can emulated it, chek "cool room" for the emulator and game, you can play it even on your phone
Well, Castlevania Legends it's called as a shame too, but it was a good game so...
They can think and say whatever they like, but the dark atmosphere, the loneliness and the sense of peril of this one no other Castlevania managed to capture. As for the music! Oh, the music...absolutely compliments the character of the game and is far more appropriate for a vampire game than the j-rock of the rest of the series.
This was the first Castlevania I ever played and I could never play any of the others, because they could not much the atmosphere of this one. Not even the so praised SotN.
I didn't get far (due to my n64 not having a working battery pak to save the game), but I thought it controlled fine and the camera was decent enough
I enjoyed it regardless of its criticisms. It certainly made my adolescent years more fun.
You've done the world a good service extending this, and god bless you for doing so.
I think this song was what made me love the Violin so much growing up.

Esta siempre será la melodia que me venga a la mente cuando pienso en los juegos de Castlevania que jugue😌
Never played this game. But man do I love this track. Thank you for putting this together! You're the best.
I grown up with this game and this song means a lot for me, a masterpiece
I used to just sit down and watch my brother play this game,hardly blinking,we thought it was great....except for skulls on bikes 😂😂,great theme though
Love how haunting opposing bloodlines is
Some one should re-orchestrate this. It would be beyond beautiful. But then again, this song is a masterpiece.
Check out David Westerlund’s (official!) Castlevania concert, I forget where in the concert but they play it with a full orchestra!
This will always be the music that comes to mind when I think of Castlevania.
Ohhhhhhhhh This brings back memories of little me playing the 64 with my uncles
6 year old me 99 waking up early just to play this before school
This song reminds me of the love that I lost long ago............I’ll never forget her, and no one will ever replace her.........
You okay
You’ll be ight. Look over that. Nothing new to be found in the past.
How did I not realize that this was Richter's theme song!!!

Opposing bloodlines is so underrated. The only other time you hear this is the intro in Circle Of The Moon on GBA
Played this while reading the part in the Demon Castle War: Battle of 1999 fanfic when Richter talked to Julius in the Alchemy Laboratory
You did a fantastic job on this. Thank you

Richter Belmont: If you return from hell, someone like me will be waiting for you.
I feel like I should be drinking water from a goblet while I'm listening to this
La cámara era un asco pero la banda sonora es sencillamente hermosa
Perfect
best intro in a game ever made CASTLEVANIA

It's really too bad Legacy of Darkness didn't keep this in
Who's here after hearing it in the Castlevania Nocturne trailer?
Yeah
I remember playing this game very long time ago. But just listening to the soundtrack again .Wow this opening theme song is so awesome. Was this only in Castlevania 64?
Pearl and I just waltzed longingly to this song in the dining hall at 12:30 AM. (Pearl is my prism white Galaxy S10)
I love this game
Underrated
Classic is classic forever!
Honestly, this song sounds like a lament of all whose lives and/or families, friends and loved ones have been tainted, blighted, taken or outright ruined because of Dracula and his forces.
It may be easy to miss, but this game especially highlights what happens to those who the forces of darkness prey upon and those whose lives are effectively stolen from them.
Rosa. Camilla Fernandez. Charlie Vincent (if you take too long to reach the end). Heinrich Meyer. Actrise's daughter and the other 99 children her mother gleefully murdered. Henry Oldrey's parents. Ada's family and those killed by the man-beast tribe. The children Henry rescues. Several of the vampire enemies who were fed upon and forcibly turned (like the vampiress fought near the Underground Waterway entrance). The unnamed corpse found in the Forest of Silence. And even possibly Malus himself (possibly being the key word here.)
This is a lament for those made casualties in this war against the Prince of Darkness. And a mournful dirge for the ones who couldn't be saved in this war against Castlevania's master now going into it's four century with no way of permanently killing Dracula in sight.
I still think this game was awesome for the time. Hell, this track is worth the full price.
Thank you so much!

10/10
I'd love to see a remake where this theme starts on the violin solo. That shit is fire.
Castlevania 64 got a spirit or two in Smash Ultimate! So there's some love for the N64 games!
Beautiful, but 15 freaking minutes?! oh well
guten tag herr tails 😎
@n.eptunium hello buddy boyo, still coping 🙂?
This game was a Soulslike before Soulslikes was ever a thing. Except Linear cause of stages
Yes I like Castlevaina 64
One can dream.
Necesito un remake de este juego antes de morir
Excellent game
Richter's theme in a game without Richter?
Its fits considering Reinhardt is a decendant from Richter.
Reinhardt Schneider was Richter’s Great Grandson. Richter presumably had daughters, one of his daughters married a man named Schneider, she had a son named Michael Schneider, who in turn inherited the vampire killer and taught his son Reinhardt. The manual states that Reinhardt always was proud of how he was the direct descendant of Richter.
I heard this from circle of the moon
Lo único bueno que tuvo en Castlevania 64. xD
This song sounds like it belongs to Final Fantasy for some reason
The violin music is impressive for a N64 game
I like
The only real complaint that I have with this game is the camera.
that's my favorite theme to Castlevania of all of them my favorite one was Lord of Shadows

Is this game anywhere on Switch???
Not yet, but I wouldn’t mind if Legacy of Darkness got some kind of re-release. I never really hated CV64 back a while ago. I was disappointed with how Cornell was a broken character where not much changed if he did his werewolf transformation. But overall, I feel like it was a good first time at 3D Castlevania.
I want an extended version.......
ngl I find it kinda funny that a large chunk of the comments on this video spoil the fact that Malus is really Dracula with the same cavalier attitude as someone spoiling the fact that Sephiroth kills Aerith at the alter in Final Fantasy 7.
Well bare in mind the name malus kinda gives it away. Malice being of malevolence. I played this game years ago. To see a child play violin so well and finding out his name later on. My goosebumps were trying to warn me, but did I not know he would be Dracula. The big twist indeed
@@1angelicdemon1Malus was a child, Dracula used him to reincarnate, killing him. Guess he couldn’t find his own kid as a victim of his scheme at the time.
is this song copy righted?
this song bring me back to my childhood :'D when the games from nintendo was so goooood! and bloody xd because every game for nintendo now its to.."family friendly",so bad they not making a remake from this game
Nintendo didn't make this, Konami did. The closest Nintendo has done close to that "not family friendly" are the entire Metroid series... or every one of Kirby's final bosses.
Mesma musica do Super Nintendo mas com o calculo do metrônomo da musica bem lenta, e ainda esta canção da incrível Konami me encantou, só um violino ja deixou uma beleza e precisou de outros instrumentos claro como um piano, e
