this game fucks. it fucks hard. third castlevania ive played it tops aria of sorrow i think. alucard is such a crazy little character. the spritework and bgs are fucking sexy, the stonework and stained glass is especially very pretty.
a moment i was fond of during my run was beating doppelganger. i died a bunch of times to him (i did not know to use a shield) and i ended up going in there with the fuckin clock thing that stops enemies and went ham with gladius. i like to think doppelganger had an oh shit moment seeing alucard walk in all pissed off from and proceed to fucking mince that faker
just like with sorrow games after the final boss i thought "damn that was a bit short" so i ended up shitting around the castle for a while and finally discovered what to do and nah this game is fucking MEATY you go through the whole castle again BUT FUCKING UPSIDE DOWN. crazy shit man. the reverse castle bosses were awesome beelzebub made me audibly say what the fuck it's arguably not any more gruesome than the other stuff in thr game but idk i just did not expect to see a gigantic fly infested corpse with its flesh sloughing off loooool. galamoth overall gave me the biggest run for my money i beat him by like transforming into mist and going between his legs when he did that one lightning attack and going nuts just giving him so many cuts on his lower legs and feet that he fucking died.
the story was ok i think, not too dense but i appreciate what was there. pretty tragic, pretty sad, alucard's dilemma was enjoyable, i liked all the stuff with his mom that was kind of cool i think. i wonder what he does after fucking off in the ending
ost is also outstanding marble gallery and lost painting are easily my faves
anyways i beat the game with like 180% map completion looool ill prolly go back to do the 196% ending on a new save sometime since the game is relatively short.
