All right, I'm so excited for this. Castlevania: Belmont's Curse. It's been 12 years since the last Castlevania game and 18 since the last 2D entry, right? And that was on the Nintendo DS. That's how long it's been. I find that just insane. Anyways, likes, views, anything you drop means a lot to me. This is a game that I kind of planned on playing in my spare time and not making content for, but I thought somebody out there may want to see this, right? With that being said though, not expecting it, but if we somehow top 10,000 likes, expect a full series with some of the longest videos I've ever done. And one last thing, I had a question for all of you. What gaming franchise do you want to see brought back? If I could only pick one, I'd probably go Twisted Metal just because the memories I have with that franchise. I used to play with my dad on that game all the time, and it was just some of the best times of my life. So, all right. Love you all. Fan best ever. Let's go and get this In the name of his most royal majesty, by the grace of God, the king of France, I request post haste your presence. For a great evil has descended upon Paris. The moon burns red and the city is pandemonium. Our bravest knights [music] have fled the royal court. The city watch has vanished. And those who remain hide in their homes in fear of a darkness greater than any pestilence or war. All trade and tax have ceased. Even the sacred power of our holy church, the kingdom's guiding light waines in the absence of its tithe. We have sought every exorcist, every doctor, every scholar from the shores of Normandy to the peaks of the Alps to purge this invisible terror. All have failed. So now we appeal to you, Trevor Belmont, last of House Belmont, greatest of the vampire hunters. Title's land and gold will be yours should you deliver us from calamity. With the utmost urgency, the bishop of Paris, cannon of Notraam, Claude de Champi. Titles, land, gold. This bishop mistakes his desires for our own. That's not the only thing he's wrong about father. >> You're not the last Belmont anymore. Rose, there's a darkness here I haven't felt in a long time. Not since Wakia 20 years ago when Dracula returned. >> God willing, it's not happening again. The people of Paris are already suffering according to the bishop. >> Yes, there's something rotten with this letter. The situation is far worse than he says. >> You suspect a trap, father. >> Yes, but it's not a trap if we suspect a trap. For us, it's >> a mystery to uncover. We should speak to the bishop. We'll get to the bottom of this. >> Why don't you speak with the bishop, father? I'll see what's going on in the city. Maybe I can smoke out the truth. >> But >> I can handle myself. Let me show you. >> As you wish, Rose. But before you go, take these. Your mother made these tarot cards for you before she died. She wanted you to have them when the moment was right. She never told me why or what they can do. But I cannot think of a better time. Mother, thank you, father. I promise I'll look after them with my life. >> You've proven yourself a formidable vampire hunter, Rose. I suppose it's time you learn to work alone. After all, I won't be around forever. Someone needs to carry on the family work. >> Don't say that. I still have much to learn from you. >> Give it time, Rose. Are you sure you can handle yourself? Your curse. >> Yes, I'll be fine. You trained me well. >> Then let us get to work. You investigate what's happening in the city while I speak to the bishop. I'll find you when I finished. All right. Investigate the streets of Paris. Here we go. Man, I'm excited for this. The fact that like Konami's brought back Silent Hill the way they have and now this. Been a long time since we've had like a Castlevania game like this. So Oh okay. By the way, Symphony of the Night was one of my all-time favorite PS1 games. Is up there with Final Fantasy 7 for me. Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2. What else? Few other ones. I can't like Parasite Eve, stuff like that. Okay, little button check. What we got? Oh, that's nice. Oh, okay. Little slide. Mother's tarot cards. I can feel magic. Not much, but a little. She must have enchanted them. I wish I had known her. If it wasn't for me, she might still be alive. The cursed card contains a spell, but it looks like mother didn't finish the other ones. >> Have a map or anything? Aha, here we go. Apps draws you to explore. Yep. Just like the OGs. All right. You can place markers. One of my favorite Metroid Vania games recently was Blasphemous 2. The Prince of Persia game was also good. We got equipment. Oh, nice. The armory inventory. Interesting. What is this right here? Cursed flame. 30 magic points or MP. I'm assuming that's what that also means. But uh what does this say? This one of the cards. Okay. Journey. Nothing. And then system character skin. Hold on. What is this? The default is fine. All right. I wanted to try this out for a video. I know it's like not the most like I don't know these types of games I'm going to play in my spare time no matter what, but I went all the way with Blasphemous 2 and Prince of Persia, so you never know. says, "Okay, it's like part of some kind of challenge or something." Arcane has two to three works of mercy. Oh, it improves it. Nice to jump further. Okay. I'm assuming this games have like hidden walls and stuff. Let me just try. >> Every now and then you'll just kind of find one, you know. Man, these games are just going to be my comfort games for a while. I can feel it. Like any kind of Castlevania stuff. Wait. We're six out of 20. And it just means hit too, not actually like I guess take them out with it. Uh, hold on. Wait. Can I go up right here at all? No. Okay. Maybe here though interact. By the way, playing on PS5 Pro. I know it's like on Steam and all that too. I'm just going to This what they gave me. So I'm just like I'm just going to use this. I'm assuming I can't use that thing yet. What is that? What is go to upper map? What does that do? Interesting. Okay. Yeah, same on this side, too. I guess we just got to keep going up, looking for hidden walls. Oh, he just looked down. I was like, "What's going on here?" That's funny. What is my hill button? L1. Okay. Wait, can I make this? I see the like book up there. Come on. No, I can't make it yet. All right. I think so far the game is very fluid, very responsive. That's exactly what I was hoping for, right? Coming up. One thing about these games that I've always felt is like one of the bigger things about them besides the story and stuff, right? The soundtrack, man. Some of my favorites. bringing back like the food and stuff. That's awesome cuz that was like in the original stuff as well. Bloodlines on the sake of Genesis and we're playing that. Oh, watch out. Probably Alakar's always been like one of my favorite I guess protagonists if you would. I like how his name backwards is Dracula. But uh can I keep going this way? Keep scaling this, I guess. I mean, that's the thing again. That's Metroid Vania right there, baby. Some sort of spirit. Uh, and my cards are glowing. What's going on? Yeah, the monster hunts for souls. Tried to trap it. Hid the lever near the [music] barrels like the ones below me. Monster hunting for souls. Okay. New clue about the fallen. Okay. Interesting. Okay. Clues that hint how or where are Okay. Can be reached. Tracking down. Nice. Okay. So, it's the exact same thing. The barrel stuff. Interesting. Okay. I mean, right here, right? What did that open up? The thing below me. Anything else up top? Does not seem to Oh, what is this? We leveled up. Nice. Have like stats or anything? Uh, focus on rose. No, that's not going to work. We're level two, but okay, I see it. Very, very bottom. Interesting. Hold on. We got relics as well. I don't have any yet. Okay, so we're going down. Oh wait. All those things back there. Hey, let's go. >> Okay. Got a whole That's a long hill time. excited to like get a double jump or something. That'd be nice. All right, we can't go left. We can only go right. I want to see what was below us. And I'm like, wait, there's like some water right there on the map. Let's go check it out. You got 50 markers you can actually place but no need to yet. Feels like guarding this mirror. How odd. My reflection appears. Healed of her wounds. Nice. This is how you save. All right. Very nice. So, we came through that. Okay. Got you. I was like, where we come from? Cuz we just kind of appeared in here. Open map. Uh, we can go down or right. Kind of up as well, but like an extra hill or something just down. What was that? What the? All right, we got that done. Now what happens? All right, hold this down. Nice. Okay. Says purify. I guess we're good now. I can't like shoot this up though. I can actually attack up like that. But >> h All right. got like a bonus hill right there. I just realized that. So, how do I even get over there? Assuming you can't right now, but oh well. Oh well. Oh no. I just heard like So, we're like under some kind of hurricane type stuff going on. I don't know what's happening, but I can hear it outside. I'm like, uh-oh. I'm happy I have a generator. Want that book right there, but I can't get it. Uh, let's see. We got some stairs up there. Interesting. Oh, I think some other games have also kind of had this thing where if you're like near Okay, little save spot, the enemies like respawn, don't they? Let's try it out. There was a thing above me just now. I just realized that I can't go up any higher. I don't like double jump or anything yet. Supposed to play here. Not anything on the bottom. It seems like I think we're good. Let's just keep going. H. Yeah, that right there I cannot access yet. From the bottom you can, but not yet. All right, going right. Unless Nope, that's it. Just kidding. Hey, let's go. Leveled up again. All right, let me just check that out really quick. So, the attack and defense keep going up. HP MP I'm sure will also change. Our relics is also still like like I don't have any. Oh, wait. What is this? Was this from like whatever version of the game they gave me or Frozen? That sounds insane. Like what? I'll try it out. But that just sounds like insanity, right? if I can. Coming up. Did I read that thing right? I want to double check that cuz I feel like that's almost too powerful. You know what I mean? Or frozen. I thought they were frozen for 60 seconds. Like cool down 60 seconds. That makes more sense, right? That's not too strong then. Never mind. All right. Anything back this way before we keep going? Nope. Okay. Check the walls. Check the walls. Got some bats. I wonder like when the last time we've had a game like this for Castlevania, right? Like the DS maybe. Was that it? Was it that long ago? There's no way, right? All right. I can't go there. Can't go up any higher unless I can jump. Oh, you could almost like you can almost make that, right? Guess we'll like need whatever that is. Okay, we're chilling. >> Hey, let's go. Another spirit. My cards are glowing again. Okay. About to get a new one or what? It's unholy cross. Still can shatter it if the strike lands true. Okay. What's terrorizing Paris? All right. Well, stop the monster terrorizing the city. Oh no. Uh, ball spite I'm guessing. Here it goes. There's nothing here. Nothing except this large gate. If my cards led me here, there must be something on the other side. >> There you are. You must be the one tormenting the city. >> What? Nothing to say. >> Give me your soul. >> Come and get it. What's going on? Oh my god. I got lock in. Hold on. I'm getting destroyed right now. What? What is all this? Oh, come on. >> [groaning] >> What? [screaming] >> No way. >> I forgot he had like a little attack on the bottom there. Interesting. All right, I guess let's run it back, right? Feel like that wasn't too bad, but we'll see. Getting back is going to be a challenge, probably. How far away was this? Way over there. All right. Boy, for my first try, that wasn't too bad. But I still died, so it's just part of it. What's cool is you can just like stay here and just like farm enemies and level up. You know what I mean? The issue is getting back and using hills at the same time would be kind of Yeah, not too far really. It seemed further but that's always there. Interesting. I thought it'd be like one and done, right? That little back turn hit every single time. All right. surpass What? There we go. Give me that. Level up. Let's go. All right. See the spell. What we got? Holy Cross. Let's get it, baby. Open inventory. All right. Absorbing. Equipping. Nah. Wolf is like the original, right? Like a spiral throw. About to find out. I guess it costs a lot more though. We have like a hundred right now. So I can like rock this three times. This is two times. Okay. How do we get like the next thing for this? Is that all it is? It has question marks. So I'm guessing like later on. Okay. The monster dropped this gem. And what's this? One of mother's cards has changed. The fallen card now shows a picture of the monster. >> Where am I? >> The monster's voice. I can hear it inside my head. How many more surprises do these cards hold? Looks like I've captured you, monster. Who are you? >> I I do not remember. It is as if I was trying to recall a dream long forgotten. >> You don't remember who you are or what you did. >> I remember we killed innocents for their souls. Commanded by a voice I could not disobey. >> We two others. Two other guardians gather souls as well and keep the other keys for the gate. Yes, that's it. We delivered souls of the Parisians down to the catacombs for our master. >> Then I need to find these other two guardians if I want to get into the catacombs to find this master. >> You do not doubt what I say. Perhaps I'm trying to trap you. It's not a trap. If I suspect a trap, it's just a mystery to uncover. All right, new objective. What we got? Gate to the catacombs. Okay, the warrior. Really? Yep. Two other bosses. Got you. That was actually a cool fight. Kind of sporadic, but it all worked out. All right. Where to now? This where I died originally, but That's too high even for me. >> That other card gave me an ability. Perhaps the card with the monster can too. >> It appears your tarot card allows you to use my powers. May have also freed my mind from a terrible curse. Father always said mother was a skilled magician, but I never expected these cards to be so powerful. There we go. Now it makes sense, right? Before we even use it here. Yeah, let me check back before like we keep going. Actually, I can't get out of here, can I? Maybe this. Oh, yeah. That's kind of a little high up. Can I swing and get like extra air? No, you can't. Okay. Well, keep going right, I guess. All right, here we go. >> It is just like that. That's awesome. And the gameplay loop is already feeling solid. This is awesome. Um, let's see. It's got like the exact same thing, right? Hold on. Before we do that, before we go across some spikes or what we just saw. What is this? >> What? H. Wait, there we go. Hey, we're learning. We're getting there, right? I wonder if things like the cross can be upgraded to where it's like Rondo of Blunt essentially where you're you get the throw and you got like the other one where you're like floating in air and it's going around you doing like insane screen damage. Right. I'm going into this game, by the way, with no idea where it's actually tied to the original story. So, Oh, no. That was it right there, too. I had it. No. What am I doing wrong exactly? There you go. I was, you know, I just realized I was trying to aim it. using my D-pad right now and I was like aiming as I was falling down like diagonally up left. Right. The thing is you just got to mash it in the general direction. Right. Like don't even do anything. There you go. How's it going? >> Okay. That's locked. Okay. >> What does the map show? We can go down all the way left. Got to be things we have. I wonder because I died there. I didn't like see anything I can actually pick up, right? Like maybe you can collect things here and there like like a Souls game, but I doubt it. Right. I wanted to go back anyways. This is perfect. Now I can actually go back up. >> That right there is so nice. >> I am with you. Interesting. need to avoid all this and then also get this one too. Hey, the soundtrack's also been really good so far. Okay, well the bottom is kind of a dead end, but we now have ways to get higher. Uh, this is going all the way right. I'm assuming open that door on that side. Before we do that, though, I'm going to fully explore if I can. Right. Let's actually do that because I want to go all the way back. Well, I can't like H. Should I go like save my game? I might as well, right? It can't hurt. Look how quick it is, too. I wonder. Oh, wait. I think I grabbed that now. Hold on. Let's try it. Yeah. Here we go. H. Can't attack them yet, but we will soon. So, how do I actually get up there? Maybe you can like do this. Yeah, there we go. Attack up. Nice. All right. My guess is we'll have this for a long time before we get like a double jump, right? H All right, keep it going. What? There we go. whip attack. I mean, if I'm being honest, I'm going try to avoid the spikes, right? Not going to reach [laughter] like you almost like land there. Kind of helps you get across. Okay, [groaning and screaming] this is about to be very technical, I feel like, with the whip attack. All right, we up the shortcut. Nice. Don't mind if I do. Hold on. This other side feels like there maybe like a hidden thing or something. I guess not. I'm just kidding. All right. Court of Miracles. That's a different type of enemy. Okay. Not going there yet. Get the flow of everything now. Bonus hills is kind of cool. I like that. Hey, so far so good, right? What is all this? This goes backwards. I can go up. Can I go also right? Yes, you can. Oh, it just kind of Okay, never mind. >> So much destruction, so many innocent dead. Your master will answer for this monster. We all must answer. But I sense a dark power in you. A deep, quiet fury. Are you a vampire? Or perhaps some sort of monster like me? >> I am nothing like you. I am Rose Belmont of the Belmont family of vampire hunters. You're sensing the cursed mark on my arm. >> Belmont? You're a Belmont? >> Yes. My father is Trevor Belmont, the first man to kill Dracula. >> I see. So Dracula is dead. >> You sound relieved. Well, you shouldn't be monster. My parents and their allies defeated Dracula 23 years ago. But three years later, he came back only to be killed again. So the Belmonts must now always be ready. Ready to stand up against a knight with no dawn. >> I see. Belmont. >> What? >> Nothing. We should. >> Yes. I need to hurry and find the other two guardians and their keys. >> All right, here we go. All right. What we got? Massive area over there. All right. Well, keep it moving. Should I go like back this way first? Let's see. All right, we're not going there yet. [laughter] Got to loop around, it looks like. Yeah. All right, that's fine. Everything's just on fire behind us. I think right now this has been a really good game so far. We trapped her at top but then the flames took us. Cards are glowing again. It must be another guardian nearby. Well, well, well. Okay. Top of the tower. Clue about the warrior. All right. Wasn't too bad really. Okay. I expected like more health, but it's all good. What is this? Oh no. >> Oh, I see. Got some like poison stuff on the ground. Got you. I just one of the few games where I actually like getting lost. Cuz like the fact that like just fighting enemies levels you up is awesome. A lot of games nowadays have this like weird mechanic where you got to like do certain things and All right, let's go across. I may take damage there. Are they endless? Like the opening of uh Symphony. Hold on. Wait, can I use this at all? No. What you got for me? I got a key when she opens a chest. Okay. Hold to equip. Well, there you go. We have two things. It is on, right? Let me make sure. Yeah, it's there. Okay, we're chilling. Inventory. Nothing else there. All right. Going to check something really quick. So, what is the XP I have right now? You can kind of see it. Let's just see. Is it any further? It is. Okay. Barely. Right. also just like get a few more kills, right? It can't hurt. >> Actually, maybe it's not even working. Never mind. Maybe it's like the first time you take him out. I don't know. Over trying to like farm XP. That's funny. Don't mind if I do. All right, let's see. Might as well go like reset really quick. Yeah, let's do that. It's just right here. Well, there you go. Leveled up. Let's get it, baby. So, they want us to go it looks like top left or just like left in general. Not too bad. Can I go up any higher right here? Looks like you kind of can, but it's like an enemy. Oh, wait a minute. Yeah. Oh my god. >> Hidden area. Where does it go? Is down here. There you go. Let me check the other side as well. Anything there? No, that's all this. Okay, I was like, is it going to do damage? Of course it will. So, you can't even go across. Okay, that's like completely locked out. Yeah. All right. What was there like? >> Oh, this thing was like right up under me. I was What's going on here? You come back. You do. Okay. Get up out of there. I bet I could get a good view of the city from a top the tower over there. Maybe I can spot the other guardian. >> Be careful, young Belmont. The climb is high and fire is fierce. >> Thanks, but I know what I'm doing. >> All right, map updated. Oh, we're just going to pull like this. All right. Well, I can't go across right there. [groaning] Always like supposed to be. There we go. Okay. Al everything's kind of upside down. It seemed like uh we could actually go down, but hold on. What is even down here? Like the more you explore in this game, the better because you're just like stronger when you get to actual bosses, right? Hills. Okay. Hold to equip. Hold on. The more you hit enemies, the more weapon damage you deal. Uppercut. Is this better than like what I have now? Seven weapon families. Special moves. Okay. Like the exact same, it seems like. Let's try it out. That's crazy. All right. Hand to hand combat, baby. What you got for me? Not a fan of the range, but maybe it's uh useful. We'll see. That wasn't too bad, really. Okay, almost done here. Oh, we're all the way back. Oh, no. I say, get me up out of here. There we go. I may go back to the other thing. I feel like it's nice that we have it, but deal more damage. Okay. Yeah. Little more range. It can't hurt. Hey, there we go. All right. It's all coming together now. Look at all this prison tower. Innocence cemetery. They're both so appealing. I don't know. We'll see like what's on this side. I mean, we've already seen some of it looks like. Oh, yeah. I haven't been there really. This is all new. Okay. Under city supposed to go like back the other way, but I guess like the order it really doesn't matter. H was still going to like have something there for that. But I wonder will the other thing actually No, I had to try right. All right, coming back. Feel like it's not even necessarily like really have things added to the map, right? Because I mean like the important stuff is going to show up anyways. So H. There we go. Yeah, you can't go across that yet. Or through that, I mean. Um, little spike trap. Can I go up any higher right here? Hold on. I had a chance to, right? Would it respawn? Oh, I got to go rest. I'm assuming. Yeah. But I can't go to hard because of that rock thing anyways or whatever that is. All right, we're good. There we go. That's like through that. So, you can't actually do that yet. Okay, my thing is how do I get any higher right here? My guess is go back this way. Go up top. Yeah. Here we go. No way. Right. H cuz that thing is right there. Yeah. I can't go any higher. If I could find a way to get across right there. Yeah. I almost wonder can I simply Hold on. What does this do again? It's just the same thing, right? There we go. I was kind of thinking like, can I jump off that? Oh my god. I just No way. Okay. The night little too low it looks like. All right, going up. Oh my goodness. I just panicked right there. So, I can't actually go back through there now that I Well, this actually forms. So, I can just do that. Never mind. Another chest over there. Going through. Uh what? There you go. Okay. I guess if you like fall up, it can kind of help you get back to where you were faster that way now. But at the same time, the goal is like not have that happen. So, all right. Here we go. Oh, what in the world? >> Haven't been here yet. Okay. H can't go any higher right there. But I could swing that way, couldn't I? Yeah, let's do that. What is this? Come out the same way. Talk about a very just technical way to get to the top, right? We got a spike thing up there. Look at this. Oh my goodness. All right. I don't see like a way to get higher there. So, let's just come back to that in a minute. H Let me just back up and do this. Yeah, I guess this way. All right. Can I grab that with this? No, you can't. Thought I'd try. Right. All right. Going up baby. >> No, that actually worked. What in the world? >> I'm not trapped with you. You're me. I am the night. [screaming] >> I am with you. >> Thanks for the warm up. I get anything for that? Nothing. Assuming like you can drop down on the left side here, maybe. And it gives you something. Let's see. Oh, there it is. Okay. All right. Attack up. Nice. Well, we got it. Um, let's see. Left side's good there. We can't do that yet. No, >> Level up. Let's go. Let me like Can I do this? No, you probably can't actually cuz of this thing. Yeah. All right. had a lot of fun with this so far. I mean, it's just different. It feels like, you know, kind of like a nod like the older Castlevania games, but at the same time, it's definitely new. You know what I mean? I think like it's going to be a long time for somebody like unless they remake some of the older ones, right? There we go. Got to get like the flow of everything now. Oh, these are spikes, aren't they? Yep. I had a feeling. Hey, thank you all for just giving me a chance, right? I mean, back in 2010 when I first began this channel, I had no idea I'd be doing this for this long, right? But it has been just amazing. The best part is, right, being able to like be with my kids more. I just feel like that's a huge thing like I could not get anywhere else. And I thank you all for that. >> Oh, I can already see the problem here. My goodness. I think Prince of Persia had some stuff like that as well. Let's see. This is completely closed off every way. Whatever that blue thing is over there. There we go. All right. Making decent progress, it seems like. How far up are we? My goodness. Right. Like, what do we do? Look at all this. Excuse me. I wonder, I don't want to spoil it, but if you played Symphony, you know how it goes like past 100%. In like a unique way, right? I wonder if this game could possibly have that happen right? I can see it. All right, brand new spot. Here we go. H. Not going up there. This feels like cuz the fact that it keeps going up like this, right? [laughter] I don't know. A little nervous about that one. What we going to right here? No. What? We actually made that. All right. All right. Time to try to Let's see if we can go here first. Right. Dead end. All right. Not going there. Here we go. Not too bad. Hunt the knight. Hunt the knight. >> [screaming] >> Really? >> Oh, it just keeps going like this. [screaming] >> Are they just respawning like infinitely? >> [screaming] >> get that hill going. I'm not sure what I'm actually doing right now. It is wild out here. All right, we got that now. Still clbing. We're good. >> You'll all get your turn. >> Oh no. >> Get one side of the way first. There we go. That's all it was really. Just those two. What I will say like early impressions, right? Like an hour in if even that, right? But overall, I like it. I know they had like the blood stain thing. A few other games here and there that kind of like this, but got like Dead Cells. I mean, I think the people that actually worked on that worked on this game, too. So, I could be wrong about that. Don't hold me to it. What we got here? We're kind of like near the top. Really? Wait a minute. Is this the top? I hope it's not. cuz that means potential boss fight and getting back if we die going to be a problem. All right, just got a committed right there. I don't know. H. Yeah, they keep respawning. Okay. Or just keep moving. I have no idea. Either way, this like a time thing or what? Ah okay. Maybe I hit it like twice by accident. I have no idea. There we go. Got to get moving. Oh. Oh my god. Defense up. Nice. It's like the blue ones give you that. The red ones give you attack. Nice. All right. I just kind of BS is this. Find the cranes inside or out. A crane next to the spirit. Interesting. Go ahead and look at this on the map right there. I mean, kind of showed us like how to get there, I guess. Okay. Oh. Well, there you go. All right. Wait a minute. That's what it is. multiple times and you're good to go. All right. I have to go through here. So, got no choice. Yo, where are we at right now? Excuse me. I need some hills. We are high up. Oh, this is a Oh, no. I got like nothing. This is a boss fight and I can't go back. All right. Well, I'm locked in. Here we go. Who stands before me? Another soul ready to give itself to the glory of France? >> Another soul? Who are you? Are you one of the guardians of the catacombs? >> Some call me the maid of Orlon, others simply the maiden. >> But before God, I am Jean, >> Joan of Ark, the warrior who stood against the English. But you were taken prisoner and burned at the stake. So I was. But I was brought back to save the people and guide them to a righteous banner. >> But you haven't been saving your people, Joan. You've been killing them. >> No. I slay invaders who set fire to Fa's sacred capital. >> Joan, listen to me. My name is Rose Belmont. I'm here to save the city, too. I just need your key. Belmont, the family of vampire hunters. Those who were banished for communing with dark and evil powers. You, you and your unholy family set P ablaze. No I You will not destroy France. Not while I still draw breath. I'm about to die. I got like no hills or anything. >> Oh my god, this is going to be a challenging fight. My goodness. I'm going to take you. >> Yeah, I had a feeling, right? That's fine. I had no hills. That was it, right? All right. Finally got back up here. It took a little time actually cuz Yeah. spawn way down there. Here we go. >> [screaming] >> What? >> They will take you. >> Okay. The little bottom attack. I will take you. >> What's this? >> Yo, the rage on the Okay, I'm getting destroyed by all this stuff. will blow in your in your blood. There we go. No. that was a cool fight. Okay, kind of spell we got flames on the ground. Okay, >> another key. And Joan now appears on the warrior card. >> Perhaps you can use her arcane powers as well. >> I feel as though I've woken from a terrible, terrible nightmare. >> Are you claiming you did this unwittingly, too? Like the monster? What have I done? I I have killed my countrymen. >> Do you remember why you were collecting souls, Joan? For whom were you doing this? >> The lord hides the face of my former master. Even now, I am free from its dark voice. >> Dark voice? Yes. The voice that offered me salvation when I was on the p. A malevolent whisper that could shake the fate of even the holiest saints. I agreed to serve it in exchange for my life. >> I suspect this is the same voice who commanded me. >> Do you know where I can find the last key? I need to get into the catacombs. I patrolled the streets and rooftops. I imagine [music] someone else watches the cemetery and its undercrack. What we got here? Hold to equip. Okay. Uh blade dive. Hold and release. Charge attack. Okay. Might as well check it out. Oh, this is nice. All right, first things first. We got I mean I like this a lot actually. Problem is Yeah. Yeah, to get the things unlocked, you got to do find three different whip type weapons. What does this do? Let's try it out. It cost 80 though, which is insane, right? Oh, yeah. Not really feeling that one as much as the other thing. I just feel like Have any more of these? Just the two. Okay. Yeah. All right. I think I'mma rock this for a little longer. I want to get that second cross stuff if I'm being honest. But at the same time, now I can do the one out of 10 enemies with whip attack. Yeah, I can do that. Five enemies with the same cross, not at the same time. Interesting. Where we going? What's happening here? What's the map show? I got to find a cemetery. Now, my wonder is how we actually get there because h Oh, I bet I can break those with this weapon. >> Oh, no. Holy light. Never mind. Interesting. Is it like an infinite use? Yo, this changes everything. My goodness, you don't want to use it there, obviously. That's so sick. Okay. What? Oh my goodness. Oh, that was clean. That little spin attack though. I kind of like the other things still better. I don't know. Like, it's a cool weapon and all, but the first one just seems just more I don't know. I like it better. What was that in the middle right there? anything you Okay. H. Is there anything on this side? You can go to all this after a boss fight. Good stuff. My brain right now is like trying to just just get all this. All right, what we got? Collect four Roses mana. Nice. So, it's mana points, not magic points or whatever it is. Okay. All right. Where to we can go? Well, let's keep going down, I guess. >> Level up. Let's get it. Want to have to go that way. That's kind of funny. Um, I could use that or just go straight down. I feel like just doing this, right? Oh my goodness. Like navigating all this is insane. I don't know. All right. Oh. Oh, I got to only have time for like unlock fast traveling in this game. I feel like Oh, we're going straight down. All right, guard level. Going this way, it looks like. Yep. Get ready. Anything here? Nope. Okay. My brain. Oh my goodness. You got to do all this. I don't think I can do it. You got to So you got to like have him not be gone. I There's no way. No actual chance, right? Like this is ridiculous. Uh problem is if I mash this. Oh my goodness. Might die to this BS. Hold on. All right. That was a side thing luckily right? Yo, trying to get there. I was like I started thinking to myself like I don't think I could do this. Okay, I have to break in an enemy's guard. Oh, yes. Which I would assume be better for that heavier sword, right? But I don't know. Already got all that. Okay, how do we get out of here? probably get back to the main area. Might be better if I just died. I don't know. Unless we'll see where this actually takes us. I don't know. Okay, we made it. We're out of there. Now, I'm assuming as far as the map shows Oh, goodness. Hold on. What just happened? Sub area. There we go. H. It's got to be like left, right, or down somewhere. What's that actually show? Let's see. Can't actually use it yet. Interesting. I guess it's more about just like figuring it out, right? So, my assumption is go down low, but this has all been done. This I can like check that out maybe, but this wouldn't actually result probably where's like the cemetery like on the map anywhere as far as the sewers river bank or whatever that was. Wait, was that bank of the river? Never mind. River bank. That's funny. Catacombs. Okay. Yeah, we're not going there yet. So, I'm assuming there's the bridge. Let me just try over here. I don't know. Let's just go left. go up right here and then I sus like it's not going to actually do anything. You know what I mean? But maybe we'll see this actually show us where we need to go. Cemetery that way. Yep. Had a feeling. remember see that sign earlier. I'm just like I couldn't remember exactly. Wait. Aha. I need to like rest somewhere cuz I have zero hills. >> The night There we go. Get up out of here. How do I do this? Feels like you can't even go this way. Might have to like go down and then around, I think. Yep, that's what I'm guessing. >> This should result, but we'll see. Oh, come on. Here we go. There's also the spot on the right there, which by the way, let me go ahead and do that cuz that's kind of like not really anything major. It seems like >> I'm not trapped with you. >> You're out me. >> I am with you. Collect four. Rose's health. Nice. Okay. What a four. Misses is kind of the other side. Got you. Okay. Well, we've seen all that. Al like an area down there, too. We can actually check out, but I think let's go this way. Oh, have a little save spot. Let's get it, baby. That's all I wanted to see. Okay, map's been updated. There we go. >> [laughter] >> Well, well, well. Okay. No, there we go. Not going that way, it looks like. >> Leveled up. Oh, I think it's crazy. I can pretty much play like whatever, you know, and it'll somehow be supported. I just really appreciate that. It really means a lot to me. All right, we're going further left. Okay, like open up on the map way over here. Might as well check and see what's above me first cuz I feel like I can't even There's a door right there. Never mind. I can't even like go that way. Not yet at least. Okay. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Does that actually count? Whatever this thing is, we can't actually use it yet or get through it. I mean, there's a door right there on the other side, though. To be continued. >> All right, let's go all the way left. Uh-oh. That ain't good. >> You'll all get your turn. >> The hell is this? It's like not a boss but not a basic enemy either. Okay. Question marks an actual loading loading screen. Okay. Well, here we are. Oh my goodness. Look at all this. >> Unnatural death lurks in this cemetery. Something more than mortal remains. The guardian of the next key. I bet I need to find them quickly. >> Before you continue, the cursed mark on your arm. Where does it come from? >> I was born with it. It came from my mother who was struck by Dracula's curse. Like Dracula, it feeds on hatred, anger, frustration. But my father trained me to stay calm and prevent it from spreading. What happens if it spreads? >> Death. >> All right, we're in the cemetery. What? A lot of enemies being like reanimated, I'm sure. What? What was it showing? All right. What is this? Those things are already annoying. I can just feel the uh Okay, I'm assuming when we defeat the actual boss for this area, this will be something like get through. Okay, kind like the theme of the game right now. What is going on here? Nice. Can almost interact that way. Let's do it actually this side. Go up. Come back around. This should There we go. Wait, not going through there, it looks like. Nope. Okay. It's like it's a big area, but it is also not too massive. Kind like the tower, I guess. Oh my goodness. I'll like avoid this. There we go. Another soul gathering guardian around. Okay. Boy, this is kind of setup is pretty awesome actually. I'm assuming is this like all the ones for the game on number four right now? I mean, if it's like a boss per, it's going to be a lot, right? We can actually go down here. Well, we have like no choice, I guess. Just kidding. Oh. like how the um soundtrack also changed per area like the other games. >> Yo, like what a shortcut. Oh my goodness. Maybe I spoke too soon about this area not being that massive. It's like a lot of area. Okay. >> No mercy. >> [screaming] >> probably like get this done. >> Problem is like not every enemy is one hit kill. That didn't work. What is going on back here? >> [laughter] >> I don't know. I was like just kind of exploring there. What in the world? Die. What is here? Yay. There we go. Okay, we can always come back now with no issues hopefully. Oh, come on. I'm not even going to try that again. >> One more should do it. I try to kind of what can you not like Hold on. Level up. Let's go. This area is massive. My goodness. What is even back this way? Ah, a little shortcut. Okay. Hey, look at this Abyssal Eye. What we got to controlled enemies? I got to equip that right now cuz it seems like I don't quite understand it yet, but it's all good. No, that's fine. We'll reset anyways. It's all good. Uh, we got man lot of moving parts here. All right. Is there anything down there? I'm going try it out. Okay, there is. Well, that was kind of a mistake. Can't go back up now, of course. Live and learn, I guess. Might like the Medusa heads with that one area, then uh symphony. like do the dash or what? There we go. We got that completed, but now what? We got one of these. Go ahead and do this. Here we go. Second throw time. Yes. Purify. So now I can just try. Let's see. Five enemies with the same cross. Well, I could already done that already, right? But this says not at the same time. It's just got to like get a bunch of them in a row essentially. Okay. We're not too far away. Got the shortcuts also unlocked, so it kind of helps out. Hunt the night. No, it's all brand new. Here we go. Already seen that. That's not brand new. That's funny. Left side is though. Watch out. There's too many of them. Go left. Oh my goodness. Yo, where am I going right now? There's like all this stuff on that side, but it just kind of made me go up here kind of. Really? Okay, that was worth it. can almost make that h not going this way obviously, but I guess swing across to the left. Yeah, there you go. Okay, that makes more sense. What's happening? All right, shortcut. Got that one. [groaning] It's crazy. I'm almost 40 playing games like this still, and I love it. Oh, come on. So, what exactly is the Hold on. Yeah, I'm like you could throw a second cross but maybe you can only do like one at a time before as in one at the same time, right? You can like throw two all the time. It's just like they're separated, which I don't really know. Maybe it doesn't really matter as much. Yeah buddy. A lot of water down there. I may just like try it here in a second. That's a cool little area. Okay. Uh, zoom out. Let's assume like the boss or something like be all the way left or somewhere. Maybe we're like going this way and then coming back around and the boss is here and you go up to get out of here. I have no idea. That little thing I have equipped to like has a 60sec cool down has been kind of clutch. I don't know where I got it though. I'm pretty sure it's like the addition they gave me, which I find kind of weird to have if that is the case, right? To have something like that kind of Oh my goodness. kind of behind that. You know what I mean? That must have been it then. Okay. A >> chest up there. Can I even get in there? What we got? Oh, the lads. Uh, long range. Might as well try it out, right? Hold it down. Like how all the weapons have the exact same attack. You know what I mean? Thanks for the war. >> That was clean. >> Midair double cross. That was sick. Not going up. All right. >> Oh my. Forget about like silhouettes, you know what I mean? About to die. Like one hit and I'm dead. So, h I like this weapon though. I was waiting for it. I'm like, "Please don't kill me. Now, why can you come up here? What is the purpose? Little save area. But I don't want to die. Oh my god. Hi. Tell it. How did I get through there alive? My goodness, that was crazy. I kind of just ran if I'm being honest. A lot of panic running, too. Okay. Um, let's go back out there and like see what's up. [laughter] Probably have like a little safe haven. That is I don't mind this weapon, but I also feel like I kind like the first weapon more than any of them. But then again, that's the worst and I don't realize it yet. You know what I mean? I am. >> Hold on. You can almost make this. Hey, there we go. >> I am with you. >> Hello there. >> Oh, it's one of these. Okay. Got to go quick maybe. There we go. I don't know what was actually happening there. Oh, an attack thing. Oh, I bet you can hop on. Oh, wait a minute. Hold on. Let's try it. Wait. thrown in disappears into the fountain essentially. Okay. Hidden bottom somewhere. Cemetery fountain. Okay. We're getting clues along the way. I like that. We're missing one or two actually. While we go down there. before we go down. That's what it is then. No. Put it back. Put it back. I keep jumping to that. Oh my goodness. We got it. Well [laughter] we'll just like fall down. We're good. Okay. Not too bad. Looks like we're going Well, this is all kind of done, it seems like. Let's just go left. Okay. Hey, so far it's not too bad really. Oh my god. I'm assuming do the exact same thing this side right. Let's try it now. It makes sense. Okay. You go kind of quick though, don't you? Yeah. What do you like jumping to there? Oh my god. Hey, let's get it, baby. All right. 204. All right, back to the save area. Way over there. Okay, I was just like running through here. That was funny. All right. Going left. Now where are we even going right now? >> Knock knock. >> [screaming] >> Come on. The night lie awake. Oh, this thing to top it all off, huh? >> [groaning] >> I just realized something. This weapon leaves me wide open for any kind of attack. If I barely survived that and I died on the fall down. That is crazy. All right. All right. All right, so I just died up top and I actually took a little break. So I'm actually back now. I went around and like farmed a little bit of XP. Not a lot. I think it's cool though. Like you can see we're getting higher attack and defense and then like you're slowly getting like an extra hill and stuff like that over time. But I was running around just fighting like the enemies to the right and I saw this opening and I hit it once and I saw it open. So I reloaded my game cuz I was like I don't want to go down here yet. But yeah, I saw that. And I'm like, man, should I do that now? I want to get this done really quick. We're like right next to it. Let me knock this out and then I'll come back. That is crazy. As Metroid Vania though, hidden walls. We got to find like an opening, a brand new area. Wait, it actually gave me the completion. Nice. Okay. Yo, that is insane. That they're talking about the tree. I just That's That's wild. Hollow tree. I'm assuming that's the same thing. That's it right there. And I just got it, which is crazy. Okay, how do I get out of here? Straight up. Oh, by the way, I farmed a little bit of XP. Not a lot, like I said, but I also got the second upgrade for the uh where's it at? This right here. And you can actually pick. So, like the five kills. What I did is like just had enemies follow me and then I just threw it and it got them all. So anyways, it went with the bottom one. Out of the last two, I just felt like I don't know how much more damage you're getting and also like the idea of getting mana back. The problem is catching it, right? I'll have all three eventually, but may take some time. So we just go straight down. So now that we know that I can go left a little bit, but not a lot. And then I'll go back in a second. This is all just a dead end, I'm pretty sure. Yeah. All right, we have no choice now. So, that entire thing was actually just on purpose. Where we at? Oh my goodness. It goes all the way down. I mean, we have a lot of area to actually fill in, too, which is insane. But what? Oh, I'm assum I already know. Never mind. So, you can probably like do it this way. There you go. That's why they're like constantly through the area. That makes more sense. This game has been amazing. I've enjoyed every minute of it. What's going on? Oh, all right. Yo. All right, we got this. I believe that's terrifying. >> How do you even get across this run and jump, right? All right, hold on. What's actually below me? Anything? All right, then. H What is all this? Have like an area above us, too. Oh, look at this. Hey, let's go. A lot of hidden areas. Okay. But it makes sense. All right. No [screaming] >> I may get killed here. I don't know. Yo, that attack is crazy. All right. Not too bad. Not too bad. A little rough there for a second, but we got it done. [laughter] It was a little struggle, but it's all good. Anything over here? Nope. Okay. Wait, was this always an option? I've already been there, so H. Let's see what's through here really quick. Oh, that's rough. Let's go down first. By the way, maybe like a very long video. My goal is to just like do one part, but we'll see. I'm loving this. Like, I want to play in my spare time so bad and just like no life it, which is what I may wind up doing. We'll see. Maybe I'll actually be surprised how well this does. We're going to find out. All right, dead end there. All right, we could go left or back up top right. There's just like so many areas you can go to. Oh, it's going to be moving. I just realized what you can do there. Okay. Really just do this. Is it still Okay, it's going back and forth. Nice. Oh. Hold this down forever. I'm struggling so bad. That's all good. Not even sweating it. Give me that. I'm assuming this has like a dead end somewhere, right? Cuz it's nonstop where I'm going. Oh my goodness. Hey, this all kind of feels optional, but maybe it's not. [laughter] Getting absolutely farmed over here, right? That's all it was really. Feel like you probably could have explored somewhere like if you go back left like down in here, maybe it breaks open. Hold on. Can you zoom further? I don't know. I want to like test it out, but I may actually die here. We'll see. That was very close and unnecessary. Anything back this way? No, I guess not. Never mind. Worth checking out, but Okay, it all loops around. All right, two out of four. I'm tempted to just like go back and do whatever this is, but this may actually connect. We'll see. Maybe not. Okay. Oh, I Oh, this is going to be so tricky. I just realized what you got to do here. Yeah. So, you got to like time it. Go down. Maybe right there. Yep. All right. What's next? >> I am with you. >> What? You can just jump up there. Okay, you know what? Have fun. Oh, this is going to be so challenging. May die. >> One hit and I'm dead. >> Yep. You know what? That's kind of funny. Sorry. >> Wasn't trying to actually die there on purpose, but it just happened. My worry is where do I respawn at? I'm assuming it's like where I was in the beginning, right? Oh, yeah. This is crazy. All the way over there. I'm going back. What I do like about this game is the way you like level up and everything is just from killing enemies. That's really all it is. Like every Castlevania has like I'm pretty sure it's always kind of been like that, but I really don't know. I know like Symphony was exactly like that. All right, here we go. Running it back. Here we go again. Like why is this not working sometimes? Interesting. It's like an input delay or something. There we go. There we go. Take a lot of like unnecessary hits it feels like. All right. Died over there. I mean, it was going pretty far that way but my thing is exactly where is this boss going to be at, right? Oh, what? No, hold on. What is that? Should I just go back the other way? Cuz I died over there, but I feel like it's all going to connect. But that view up there. H I got to hop down to actually get back over here. Okay. Well, this is kind of challenging. just go back now. Okay. No. Oh my god. We're good. We're good. like Medusa, I guess. Like saw the eyes, couldn't move, should have turned away. Got you. The guardian's gaze. All right. New clue. Where we at? Oh, we're back here now. Yeah, I'm going to head back and see if I can find whatever's like below us. I feel like the way this is kind of going, I don't know if like there's like a major turning point after you finish like this last fight and then you're kind of like opening that door and everything. So that's my hopeful stopping point. We're going to find out. Go see where I died really quick. Here we go. Making progress. I would imagine you can't infinitely like farm them like that, but never know. They'd be kind of broken if so. All right. Almost where I died. Hold on. Try again. Nope. [laughter] Go. Now. Hey, there we go. The issue with this right here is they can't actually get through. So, how do you actually use them to get across? >> H, can you come this way? There we go. Kind of like a weird angle there. All right, decent progress. Here we go. Interesting. Okay. H. Oh it's So, how do you get higher then? It's like no one actually get like up here. It's kind of like a Yeah, you can almost go up there. We have a safe spot coming up. Let's go. Finally. Got a new one. Where's this at? Way down here. Okay. Map has been updated. Look at all this. We're making really good progress in this section. It feels like we have like whatever this is, though. Let me go left really quick and then right. Boss room coming up. Let's go. These ruins are beautiful. A whole world beneath the feet of Paris. Overthrown by time and forgotten by dirt. Do you hear that? It sounds like snakes. So, the doomed Belmonts have finally arrived for my key. No one believed me when I said the newest Belmont would be a girl. But then again, no one believes me when I speak, except the Lord of Darkness himself. >> Such is my curse. >> So, you're one of the guardians. My father told me about you, Medusa, a servant of Dracula who speaks nothing but lies. He also said you were dead. >> He should have looked closer. Your father and mother were fools to think they could defeat me so easily. >> Seeing she is dead and he will face death soon, I will have to take my revenge out on you. I don't know what's happening. It's a cool setup though. the night. >> Sticks and stones shall break your glorious. >> Oh my goodness. >> No one shall stop you. >> How do you dodge that? Oh, down there. Never mind. Hey, live and learn, right? Definitely going to die, but it's all good. Yo, that's crazy. Okay, >> run it back, I guess. All right, burn those and then dip. >> Let's look into my sticks and stones. >> That's a pretty good angle right here. All right, my best run so far. I've done it so many times you can't grapple onto Medusa. Look into my eyes. >> Oh, the Hold on. The rocks are falling. There's a major one. It's all we really need. Okay. >> He is coming. No one can stop him. The sticks shall break your >> Yo, I can't help. >> Oh, this is perfect. Okay. >> No one shall stop you. Look into my eyes. There we go. Woo! That was risky. Talk about cutting it close, right? I had nothing left. Sea spell. What we got? Petrify enemies in front of Rose. Medusa was absorbed into the prophetus card. And now I have the last key to the door. Admirable fighting, young Belmont. Another servant of sin destroyed before God's eyes. >> [laughter] >> My defeat as I foraw. The end of humanity approaches. >> You knew I would defeat you. Then why fight? >> Because it was written. The ritual has begun. We foster the darkness, agony, and despair in the souls that will bring him back. Him. The lord of darkness. Lord Dracula himself. >> So the darkness father sensed >> he was right. Is Medusa telling the truth? Joan monster. Is someone trying to bring Dracula back? >> God does not tell me if the prophetess speaks out of prophecy or opinion. >> No. I did not know of a plot to bring Dracula back. Why does it feel like you're not telling me something, monster? >> If this was all written, Medusa, what is waiting for me in the catacombs? [laughter] >> You will have to see for yourself. >> I better open the gate and find out then. All right, going to the gate. That was a very challenging fight. Definitely the toughest one in the entire game. Wait. What is this? Hold on. Was this like for that fight and I missed it? Or was this a like I don't know shield bash? I'll try it in a second. All right, Paris Street. Yeah, we got to get all the way back over there. There's so much more section over here, too. It's crazy. Like that was the boss, but we got like all these other areas, too. Getting back will be fun, I guess. All right, hold on. Hold on. What? Oh, I see. You got to jump off the wall a little bit. That was it right there. Oh, I got to time it on top of the other thing, too. It's just like, what are we doing? Oh, I cannot stand this enemy. All right, we go down or up. I mean, up would be kind of nice, but at the same time over here, you know what I mean? Wrong way, Brad. Wrong way. Still got some damage, though. I Man. Okay, I just realized something. I'm not crazy. So, the delay when you throw that thing is a huge wind up and I was spamming it to like happen while we're next to you. Oh, come on. There we go. Wait. There we are. All right. My least favorite type of enemy. Just way too aggressive for no reason. Right. Oh, you can almost make that. Okay, let's try it the other way. Like this and then go back. Man, how do you actually get over there? There's got to be way, right? Yeah, you can't. I don't know. I'll come back to that later on. It's all good. Yeah, all this kind of connects. It seems like I mean at the same time I could just fully explore everything, but h Oh, what is down here? I can only imagine. What? So, why was that even like a thing? I don't know. What? Maybe it's like another exit of that area. You know what I mean? It is. Nice. Well, well, well. Okay. There's the gate over there. Yeah. Let's just do this. See what's behind the uh main door we're trying to open. This spirit's crazy. I'm like just going all over right now. Seems like Man, I'm actually wondering. Yeah, this just goes straight there. Hey, thank you'all for even like watching up this point in the video. I feel like I really enjoyed this game a lot. Cannot wait to see more of it. Here we go. Time to find out if Medusa is telling the truth about reviving Dracula. >> Rose, wait. If someone or something means to resurrect Dracula, it is likely more powerful than you, even with our help. Perhaps you ought to find your father. No, I told father I can handle this myself. >> Be careful, young warrior. Victory will only be yours if your heart is pure and just. [laughter] >> Yes. Nothing will stop you. The trap awaits. >> It's not a trap, Medusa. It's a mystery to solve. and I will solve it. This place, it reeks of death. Yes, the victims of many horrible plagues. The remains were collected here. In the air is chill. We linger among rattling bones and white smiles. >> Head down, Belmont. Your fate is there, as well as certain death. >> Good thing I don't fear death. Oh, it's a whole new section. What? This is sick. Okay, he just keeps going. Like the main door, too. So, I'm assuming it's like go back to the area. You just do that. Um, man, should I Let's see what's down here really quick. Not all of it, but just some of it. Right. All right. Pair of streets back that way. I defend this be like more game, right? Have spikes that way. You can't go there. Possible save area coming up. I have no idea. I am like in the ground. That's funny. Look at this thing. It's going to detonate. Oh, watch out. Should like try the other weapon too. I just realized that. Oh, these things look very familiar. Were they in like the other games? Something got to like that. Maybe we are super lost. [laughter] What's bad is if I know it's like a brand new area. I would have simply I don't know like stayed just like in the other section and fully explore with like Fault Medusa and all that. But I kind of want to go back. I think I will actually. Yeah. But yeah, thank you for supporting this video. If you want more of this game, let me know. I would love to go all the way with it, but I know like Metro Vania is not usually I don't think I'd actually go back this way. Interesting. Can you land on this? Let's try it. Also, you have to be able to go back this way, right? Cuz in this game, we don't actually have the fast traveling thing unlocked yet. If there is one, I would assume there is. Almost every Metroid Vania game does have it. Even Symphony had it. All right. So, we can go back. Nice. Yeah. I kind of want to like just go back here for a little bit. I know it's like the main objective is in there. So, like now we know we have that unlocked, but the left side of the map I want to like fully explore as best I can too. Um, we have whatever's on that side. Yeah, a lot of stuff back over here, too. The thing is with these types of games, I don't like to like rush getting done with everything so quickly, right? Yo, how do you get up there? Excuse me. Will this even reach? Let's try it again. Nope. Yeah, I got to go right. Here's what I'll say. Let me go over to the right. See what this is. And I'll probably like just stop the video. I want to like just keep going, but maybe a very long definitely over two hours if I had to guess. Little three right there. Not too bad. Oh, I can't go here now. Wait a minute. Don't mind if I do. >> Knock knock. >> Oh, no. Not you. Fire. >> One at a time or all at once? I don't mind. >> Give me that defense up. Let's get it, baby. Worth it. Oh, yeah. I want to go like all the way over there. I want to just check everything out, right? But hey, thank you guys for watching. I'm just going to stop here for now. What I'll do is if I do a part two, I kind of see how this does in the first day or so, kind of go from there. But my goal is to check it out and then no life this game in my spare time cuz Castlevania games are my kryptonite. All right, but likes, views, all that means a lot. Catch you next time. Much love and take it easy. Peace.
