If the two main characters is Julius and Alucard, I would want to see Alucard in 3D. :D I'm afraid if Julius went 3D, he would be too similiar to Leon and Trevor.
my only problem with 3d whip users is this. you can't use badass tricks with a whip you can with a sword.

i've been brainstorming a little. first off, characters. the list of available partners should be quite large. control two at a time, and select new partners at some sort of safe point. of course, Julius will. The other guarantees (almost) are Alucard and a Belnades.

one of the big things i want them to do in the game is show the passing of the Vampire Killer from the Morrisses to the Belmonts. in such case, i have a funny feeling that that Morris would want to help out the cause. what they're fighting style would be like, god knows. and if there's a Morris, a Lecarde would make sense too.

I'm not so sure about descendents of one time characters like Grant or Maxim, but there are some that could work. a werewolf like Cornell would be pretty cool.

there can be similar things, though. instead of a full blown Grant clone, how about someone from the military? he could use a variety of firearms and maybe be able to climb walls. wonder if Hammer would have been like that? also, it'd be nice to see someone fighting similar to Maria.

i also have a strong hunch that Saint Germain will play some sort of role. he did alude to 1999 at the end of CoD.

and i forget who mentioned it, but the idea of Mattias sounds interesting. maybe Drac will expel the little bit of good within him to heighten his demonic power. maybe it'll be Mattias and Julius as the protagonists of the two games. and I imagine Mattias using the soul system. there's gotta be a reason why he and Soma look similar.

there's my two cents. if any of this actually ends up being true, I'd be very surpised.

Maybe they should do what nintendo did to mario: Have 3D sprites, but 2D backround. They already did that with the peeping eye.

Dawn has just the opposite of that though.

To get alot of attraction, they should have more insane battles like with gergoth and the breaking floor.

Or maybe a boss that slams into you or something and you get knocked back and break the boss door and you get followed by the boss all over castle until a certain point or you kill it.

That would be insane, since all boss battles except for the gergoth one takes place in only one room.

I wish there was a game were you had to team with dracula to defeat another evil force, Like some kind of monster stronger than dracula.

but Soma doesn't exist in 1999.

even though he isnt born yet in 1999 someone (probably Alucard) could predict that dracula will be reincarnated in 2035

jon's like 6 years older than her. and she's under the age of consent. statutory rape anyone?

Jon is 18. Char is 16. No problems here. Plus whoever said they wouldn't at least wait a bit? :P

Also the way I see it, Jon wouldn't want to send his son off knowing that the whip will kill him if he unlocks it unless he died first. Then we also get the real Belmonts returning, which kinda negates the need for Morrises, and especially for Lecardes at that time. Why unlock the whip and possibly die in the process when you can give it back to its rightful owners and everything ends well, as well as finally relieving the morrises of the burden they were carrying for over 100 years.

which goes back to what i was saying. even though their role is pretty much over, the Morris and Lecarde would probably still want to help out. and i think J&C's grandchild would be a better fit than their son/daughter. that way, the current holder of the whip wouldn't be past their prime.

I dont agree with a solider type character. guns don't belong in Castlevania AT ALL. imo.


even if its 1999 and all, they should not have guns in any form.


whips and swords are fine, and anything else melee or even ranged like daggers and magic but other than that, guns really have no place in these games, there's already billions of other franchises that are flooded with guns.

putting guns in a CV is like putting a steel sword in a Metroid game.

I heard one of the earlier portable CVs had like a gun subweapon or something like that but it's best to keep the arsenal gothic, enchanted and civilized.


but yeah Im a fan of huge selections of characters so IMO they should make everyone from the past playable.

and like PoR has proven, the extra characters don't need to fit into the story in order to include them as playables.



I accept sprite recycling and any sprites from SOTN, Rondo, or PoR is good enough for me. ^_^


but yeah hopefully one of the 1999 games is released for Xbox360 or PS2. I dont like portables nor the Wii and I probably wont buy a PS3 until it drops down 200 bucks. (oh wait scratch PS2 since Sony has that stupid policy about not accepting 2-D games).

but yeah the right consoles deserve some CV love. fans have expressed their opinions and 3-D is hated by most of them (CoD is still great though), so the `1999 games should be 2-D style.

well I wonder if they'll make the right decisions.
