I really wanted the big Contra: Operation Galuga set, but sadly had to settle for less.

Would really like to have a pair of Contra figures. And these looked good. Way better than the old NECA ones.

Uh well about that.

...d'oh.

Oh well, I don't have $200-$300 CAD to spare, anyway.

Wait, they have the Xbox version left, which is the one I'd want. Still, don't have the money. Alas...

Thanks for letting me know, though!

I'm dumb. I thought the Switch Dominus collection had ALL of the metroidvania castlevania games. I thought Aria and Dawn was in the same physical copy. So I have to get both, to get the '-of Sorrow" story together? Urgh.

I'll probably get Hades 2 first tho.

 

[Caldwin]

I have them digitally. Aria and Dawn are my personal favorites hands down. If you can only get one, I'd probably go for Dominus collection. IMO, Portrait of Ruin and Order of Ecclesia are right there up at the top of best Castlevania games with Aria and Dawn. But if you can get both, yeah, Aria alone is worth it. I also had a lot of fun with Circle of the Moon of all games. Didn't really care for Harmony of Dissonance.

 

[Fero McPigletron]

I finished Aria of Sorrow so I want the sequel Dawn. I'm annoyed that Hammer was suppose to be playable as the Grant Dynasty counterpart but got left out, boo!

Tie in. But watch for the intro, I guess. Where's Grant?

So hey, remember that Ode to Castlevania DLC that Vampire Survivors got last year?

 

[Fero McPigletron]

There's a new game!!!!!!

 

[Caldwin]

Ho...ly...bleep!

 

[Sjogre]

Okay. A female Belmont using the whip. Unexpected, but appreciated.

Also, a distinctly different artstyle than Bloodstained. More comic book than I expected.

Hoping it'll be Sonia.

 

[Fero McPigletron]

From the title, I hope the new protagonist has three companions to help her out.

 

[Caldwin]

Hoping it'll be Sonia.

Absolutely. That would be awesome. Sypha notwithstanding, Sonia was the first primary protagonist in a Castlevania game that was female and her game was, unfortunately, pretty much panned into being non-canon. She deserves a second chance!

Would this technically be third times the charm, since she was supposed to be the star of that Dreamcast game that got canceled?

 

[Sjogre]

Honestly, I kinda hope it isn't. Partly so that there's another female Belmont, and partly because Sonia was Trevor's mom, while this seems to be his daughter.

 

[Shadewing]

You guys keep mentioning Sonia and your gonna Jynx it when Konami realizes "holy jive, a woman. Can't have that!"
