DefaultGen | 5,405 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 This game looks cool and like a lot of effort was put into it, but man I cannot think of a retro concept more boring than yet another Castlevania or Super Metroid throwback. It feels like a waste that it's such an overly-done theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumez | 2,951 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 While I Agree with DefaultGen, I think it's cool that they called the guy Simon Quest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PII | 1,885 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 (edited) ¡Yeah, Real CastleVania! Too bad I gotta wait till 2025 to prossess this game... Edited January 16 by PII 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webhead123 | 675 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Well...when they take inspiration, they really take inspiration, don't they? But hey, I'm sold. Classic Castlevania is one of my "anytime, anywhere" game series and many modern devs have done great things with it, like the Bloodstained games. Here's hoping this one turns out as good as it looks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So modern devs made a Castlevania-inspired game, but that's it, they haven't "done great things" with the series regarding that ss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I was implying was that "modern devs have done great things with [it] the inspiration that they've taken from that series".

CMR | 520 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 The game looks awesome, and I'm down with it. I think the name is confusing though. The game is enough of an obvious homage without the cumbersome title. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_wizard_666 | 1,325 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 I can't wait...for the inevitable cease and desist order. Pretty sure it's all fine except "Simon Quest," but given that it was part of the Castlevania Collection a couple years back, Konami may well want to protect that name. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiygasKaz | 2 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Retroware has a decent track record that only seems to get better and better with their recently published titles, so I have confidence this'll end up being a fun time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
