I'm most looking*
avatar
Yeah I am, one of the things I'm looking forward to this year, I thought the newest trailer was pretty cool
avatar
Suede are you excited for Prime 4 or nah?
avatar
It bothers me it’s what the genre ended up called as the term was originally used to describe SOTN just because it was Castlevania doing a Metroid thing. Seems weird to then go on to use that to describe all future games that also did a Metroid thing
avatar
Super Metroid the best game ever <3
avatar
Metroid is definitely doing the heavy lifting in the ‘Metroidvania’ genre
avatar
avatar
Simon Quest the best
avatar
Yeah I’m a Retrovania fan myself. I like SOTN a lot but it’s both a worse Metroidvania than Metroid (and I’ve always disagreed with the genre partly being named after it) and a worse Castlevania than the classic ones.
avatar
I like the ARPG ones but man I so much prefer the old platformers
avatar
I learned to speedrun 1 so I am biased with that, 3 and Rondo of Blood are also fantastic
avatar
What’s your fave Castlevania, Blob?
avatar
Although at least people in the UK don't just act like videogames are for cretins and shutins
avatar
Oof

When I had driving lessons I was in a retro phase and was playing the original Castlevania, when my instructor asked what I played and I said that he hit me with “I played that when I was younger, have they not made anymore games?”

Probably had a delivery

Why was Keiv in a UK pub
avatar
I had to resist replying “you’re old enough to remember 2010’s Peace Walker?”
avatar
An older businessman at a pub just complimented my MGS t-shirt as very cool and said “I’m old enough to remember that. And that makes me sad.”

So many questions
