Castlevania Advance Collection

Soma my goat

[Nostalgic] a classic Castlevania, OG for the genre. Games are very old, you either play them for nostalgia or to check out the classics. As for port, audio was weirding out sometimes, and visuals were getting wonky, but overall bearable.

Finished My First Castlevania circle of moon, Keep forgetting that these GBA Games be short as hell, The Pixel Work is pretty nice, I did not like the Zombie Dragon Boss fight due to having to fight Both Heads at the same time and be equally vulnerable, The Final Boss Was kinda Dragging a Bit in the 2nd Phase with attacking the Bats and Eye ball, as Metroidvania is holds up pretty and was mostly able to read the map and figure out where to go, The Exploration is rewarding with finding items to boost your health, MP, and Hearts, The Sprint Is really Handy for a Game Like this And really speeds up the Pace of the Game, The Gameplay is Solid throughout with Variety of Enemies and that make you change how you approach them with different attack patterns and designs and the areas each having their own unique backgrounds and aesthetic, The Whip has a Cool system with the Cards that allow for different strats and approaches with a variety of effects like turning into fire and Ice but having to get the necessary cards could be a little tedious if you’re into 100% 7/10 Finished Harmony of Dissonance, Pretty Solid Improvement over Circle Moon, Dashing Everywhere saves a lot of time backtracking and is a lot better than the Sprint since it serves as good Combat use too since I can dash in and out of attacks and projectiles, The Exploration felt more seamless and more interesting since the idea of traversing parallel castles is pretty interesting and makes the backtracking have more purpose and gives the environments some more variety and finding the castle maps makes for checking areas WAY MORE ease in knowing where to explore next since the color coding on the maps makes it easy to tell where you explored and where you haven’t and makes it important to narrow down areas compare to circle, Gameplay is of the same quality, The Enemy design has some improvement and is still varied, The Pacing feels way more faster in this game due to the mentioned above, The Spellbook is more simpler than the card system but still allows for experimentation when different books have different attacks depending on your throwable weapon but the Holy Book just Mogs all the others Didn't have any difficulty on where to go next even skipping some boss fights til later, the Bosses Are just better than Circle, 7-7.5/10 Finished Aria Of Sorrow, and I’m having trouble whether I like this Over Circle of the Moon or Not due to the Pacing of the Game being Slower and Not being able to Dash until Way Later in the Game until you get Black Panther, The Gameplay Loop is still the Same but with Obvious Differences Like The Soul System, This is interesting since there’s way more clear way on how to get more powers by constantly kill enemies until you get their souls and the Abilities can Aid in Combat or Exploration and some have a variety of Uses with engagement compared to Circle where it’s not really clear how to get more cards, The Enemy Design is Varied but the constant Medusa Heads that would appear in certain sections when trying to traverse can be very annoying, The Boss Fights were Mostly Pretty Decent and there were plenty of a Variety of Strats to beat them but a Few had really annoying attacks and sometimes the fights can drag not wasn’t as frustrating as circle, the Story is Just Really not that well written and it tries to be emotional but it doesn’t work, 7/10 Dracula X for the SNES is very an Arcade Game from the 90s, The Movement is very Stiff but that makes it so Every move is purposeful, You gotta be careful in platforming and timing your attacks to the enemies rhythm and learning to dodge within the game limitations, the Bosses were mostly okay but dracula was pretty frustrating in the first phase with the hit box being so small 6/10

도전과제 딸치기 할 거 아니면 circle of the moon은 스킵해라 난 말했다 빼앗긴 각인보다 5조5억배는 불편하고 어려운거 같다

GBA時代の悪魔城ドラキュラが３種遊べるお得な作品。 どの作品もボリュームは短いもののクオリティは非常に高く、今遊んでも最近の作品と謙遜ない・どころか十二分に通用する面白さ。 遊んだことない人は是非遊ぶべき。続けてドミナスコレクションも購入しよう

all of these games are older than me kek

It's incredible how to this day such old games hold up so well. Blind buy for everyone who wants an action platformer game for life.
