This game is absolutely beautiful. It may be my favorite in the series. The amazing art, story, and combat system really make this game something special. It also has probably the best OST of any Castlevania game, and that says A LOT considering how the series has consistently great soundtracks. The characters were also really great and interesting and I loved the twist in the story because it didn't feel forced or thrown in, it actually worked very well and this was one of the games where the ending actually made me cry a little. I had a blast playing this all the way through and would highly recommend this to anyone who likes a good challenge
