It's quite obvious that they are taking their inspiration from God of War this time. Prepare for quick time events out the ass

What do you expect? Castlevania is a series that does care about its story, and lords of shadow is co-developed by kojima studios. At any rate, this game looks great.
@Masaji1223 - Ditto. I think that despite the obvious God of War influence, this game will be great. Count me excited!
This looks great. The character designs are very Guillermo del Toro looking. As someone who's never really liked any of the Castlevania games, I'm definitely looking forward to this.
@scarletaria. Yeah, I don't mind some God Of War play style.. it does play well, and every other attempt at a 3D Castlevania has been fail anyways. Why not try something that's been proven to work?
Plus am I the only one seeing those monster designs? I don't think I've seen better enemy designs in a game, ever. That alone makes me want to pick this up. To see what awesomely hideous creature is going to pop up next.
Now to wish they would show more then the the horse level and the warg level for gameplay since they've now shown off about 90% of the story.

That was retarded long. Looks pretty awesome though. Hopefully they don't get too carried away with the cut scenes in game. Regardless this is pretty much a day one for me.
Why Castlevania has to become a GOW clone is beyond me. Everything i heard in that trailer was utter anime fodder; light and dark, you're our last hope blah, blah.
Castlevania is better than that. I hope the gameplay retains some of its former self..

I watched this last night on ustream on the Kojima Productions stream, I was so into the video whilst talking about it with a friend that we didn't notice how long it was until someone in the chat pointed it out.
Let's just shit all over this because it looks epic and awesome. That's right, they release a cool trailer, and Jim's gotta crap all over it.
You're right. Making a joking comment that it's too long and self-important, while adding that the game looks hot is TOTALLY shitting all over it.
Calm the fuck down, kid.

@DtoidBadMrK, I was thinking the same thing! Yea I hate epic games with a serious storyline and good character designs this sucks.
Can people play this game? Or is it just a movie.
:/
I HATE trailers that don't show gameplay. I'm sure it was in there, maybe 5% of that trailer is gameplay, tops.
Yea, this movie looks great.

@llort het: there won't be any QTE in this game.
"When I asked if quicktime events will be a gameplay element, Cox was quick to react. "We wanted to avoid that. We felt that when it's done like that, the gamer focuses too much on the button and gets distracted from the actual action that's happening." They're instead aiming on presenting the gamer with exciting action scenes without having to worry about a giant button icon distracting them from Gabriel's quest."

i don't care if it's a god of war clone. i don't care if it isn't completely within the tradition of prior castlevania games, and i'm old enough to have played the original when it came out. i want this game now, and i want five minutes of game play footage tacked on to this trailer.
Excessive, self important cinematic cutscenes? Well, Kojima Productions has a hand in it after all....
Jokes aside, it does look pretty sweet. Gonna wait for reviews before purchase though.

That trailer was incredible, although I feel as though I saw too much. I'll definitely be buying this day one! In the meantime I think I'll play some Castlevania and Super Castlevania IV.

Why is everyone comparing it to GOW they had big bosses in the game before this is just the first 3d one(that's actually good) Yes it has some game play that's from God of war. Then again so do many games. It all depends on how they play out in the game. I for one am stoked about this game I can't wait.
It was all in Japanese but that was 10 tons of fucking awesome.
That, Ninja Theory, is how a reboot should make me feel.

Lookin pretty goddamned awesome. And fucking October 5th? How could I have let that slip by me? Definitely day one, just hope they have a really cool special edition full of silly junk :P
"Please, for once Castlevania. Don't take inspiration from Metroid :|"
There was also a game called Simon's Quest....

Never had any interest in Castlevania before watching this trailer. God damn it looks awesome. I've been lacking a good story-baseed game recently so I may just pick this up.
Good: Monster designs, environments. Dudes look like dudes.
Bad: Small-ass Bayonetta heads and the fact that a 7-minute-long trailer probably doesn't even show 10% of the in-game cutscenes, which will be numerous, long-winded and pointless for the most part.
I wanna play just because it's Castlevania, but the cutscene thing is probably going to kill it for me. Hideo Kojima is a plague. I say that as a gamer, not a b-movie fan who pretends to like games.

So what I've learned is this: It looks amazing (art style and enemies a like), almost every post-SotN relic/item is in this, there's some epic boss fights, Death sounds like weenie in japanese, you get to ride a lot of weird animals w/ glowing tribal tattoos, and you have to have a ten min conversation with everything you come across before you can kill it. I still want this game more and more every time I see new footage though...
I sort of have the opposite concern. I'm very much behind this epic-looking story and I really don't mind cut-scenes. I AM worried about the gameplay. I don't care if it plays like other 3rd person action games as long as it's fun. If the game is fun to play and the story can live up to its epic-ness, I'm happy (though I imagine most people would be if those two conditions were met).
