So, I've been on a bit of a Castlevania rush lately (again), and I realized I still have my old password from beating Dracula on normal mode with Syfa and Trevor. So, I figured I'd start off from there and go for another run, on hard mode.
This game is seriously kicking my ass. I realized that on your second run you can't pick up new characters, which is a huge bummer because I would've loved to try some stages with Grant! But I actually went into the huge clocktower, fought Grant, watched him die, and had to go back through the tower with no Grant. ;-; Sad face.
Then I figured "Hey, maybe it's because I used him in my previous playthrough! He can't join me twice, right?" and continued onward, until I had a choice between the stage where you get Syfa and where you get Alucard. I already had Syfa, so to Alucard I went! The stage was kinda tough, but not too tough by any means, and Alucard himself was a total pushover! But it made me bummed out when he just keeled over and died. I wanted to recruit him and his flying abilities! But no matter. Trevor alone is good enough, and Syfa is pretty okay if you get the right spells! So onward I went. Now I'm at stage 7.
URRRRRRGHHHHHHHH STAGE 7
Before, I took a different path, so this stage 7 is completely different from what I conquered before. Falling blocks is the name of the game. Falling blocks and flying skeletons trying to push you into the depths!! I managed to reach the top of the stage, but then a spider threw its offspring at me. :(
I love Castlevania 3.
Anyway, what is your favorite Castlevania, and why? Also, do you prefer Classicvania, or Metroidvania?
