Tyranogre Posted March 24, 2019 Author Share Posted March 24, 2019 Nintendo: "Hey, is it all right if we put Castlevania in Smash?" Konami: "Castlewhat? Who the fuck are you? We make doughnuts now." Nintendo: "Eh, let's just do it and see if they complain." Konsmi: "Hey, you wanna buy a doughnut on your way out?" Link to comment
Tyranogre Posted March 24, 2019 Author Share Posted March 24, 2019 @Pichi Just finished Symphony of the Night and thoroughly loved it. I guess now I have to go back and get the “good ending” in Dracula X Chronicles, don’t I? April 1 Link to comment

I think it spun out of Castlevania Judgment , and represents the timeline where the Time Reaper was successful in wiping out previously established Castlevania lore. Link to comment

Tyranogre Posted March 25, 2019 Author Share Posted March 25, 2019 Finished the good ending of Dracula X Chronicles! And by "finished the good ending", I mean "rescued all the maidens, spent an hour trying to kill Dracula's final form, finally landed the killing blow while Maria had only a sliver of health left, only to get hit by a stray bat at the exact same second, resulting in a Game Over, then said fuck it and looked up the ending on YouTube."

"Casual Trash" Kirbys Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 (edited) Oh man there's going to be an Iron Man VR game for the PSVR I wonder how people will react to- Edited March 26, 2019 by Kirbymeister2 Link to comment
Stephen 776 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 (edited) The thing is everyone is still expecting VR to be "the future" (granted, people said the same thing about 3d) whereas handhelds were being phasing out. Id est, Sony sees them securing themselves as a market leader in what is currently a niche, but expected to be huge, market with PSVR but saw them as having only a sliver of a dying market with Vita. That said, I don't think the VR will be the future because it's too many problems for the average person (e.g. costs, require lots of space, headache inducing, etc.) and I wouldn't he surprised if it's slowly forgotten about a la 3D. But, that's my own opinion so Edited March 26, 2019 by Ares Doc Brown 1 Link to comment

Youngster Joey Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Never have been a fan of VR. Looks very uncomfortable and terrible for your eyes. I'd always seen it as grotesque, both in form and meaning. In regards to the near-future of videogame technology, I think we're approaching a time of lacking innovation. The PS4 and Xbox One are identical outside of some spec variance, and the Switch has no identity of its own outside of functional convenience. Computer technology itself has been stagnant now for almost a decade because there's no longer a need for better technology among most consumers. If anything, I feel like most current technology isn't utilized to its best potential. Cable "HD" television looks terrible on a 4K TV, web browsers take a few GB of memory if you have a few tabs open, videogames stutter because god forbid we reduce the amount of blades of grass flowing in the wind that contribute absolutely nothing to the user experience.
