And Richter was better implemented from a character select screen.
The extra item button was handy since you didn't have to unequip a weapon. That area could've housed an extra item for the clock, to make it required.
The garden was cool, a throwback area even with Vampire killer music, but it was a dead end with no meaningful reward. The prison one felt useless, there was no boss and it had to be opened from both sides to use is as a passageway between the gallery and the first area anyway. I maxed out the Saturn version map a few times as well. If you are reading this Konami.step away from the pachislot machines and give us some new and awesome Castlevania games! Combine it together as one experience and sell it to us.I’d buy another version of the game! I really just wish Konami would give us a modern physical copy edition of SotN on the PS1 code with the Saturn extras. We’re the new areas perfect? No.but it was more SotN and I’ll give up transparencies and throw in a bit of loading time patience to get more of the game I love. A real Staten Island dumpster fire of an experience.īut what did we get in return? Maria as a playable character, some awesome remixes of iconic tracks, and new areas of the castle to explore with new songs and enemies. You’d think reading them the game was hot garbage. Are the transparencies from the PS1 version gone? 100%Īnd that was enough for reviews of the Japanese import to get ravaged. Does it have longer loading times? Definitely. Graphics were improving by leaps and bounds.but what DONT I miss? The reviewers.ĭoes SotN on the Saturn have slowdown? In spots definitely. Hardware was evolving to the point where you had SNES in the beginning and Dreamcast by the end. To this day I still play from start to finish once a year (sometimes solo, sometimes with friends)īut.for the last seven years when I do my yearly SotN run I do it on Saturn.and that’s because I really do think it’s the better version of the game compared to the PS1 version! (Covers face and head to avoid the rocks incoming.lol) I spent the better part of a month exploring the entire castle just to make sure I didn’t miss anything.
How could Castlevania, a franchise I loved, somehow evolve into a game this good? The exploration, the red book audio.the sprite was a 10/10 home run. When SotN came out on PS1 and I first played it.my metaphoric wall had my mind splattered all over the paint.
