I get paid to stab people with sharp objects.
I sure do like Castlevania OP. But only SotN and beyond, the old school ones never really tickled my pickle.

Circle of the moon is a good game and grinding for cards is way more rewarding than grinding for souls

IGA and pals intentionally put in good places to farm the rare ones

Why grind for cards when you can just do a super easy glitch to access any of them?

You mean like the second and third to last levels of the no-magic combat gauntlet?

A replay of Harmony of Dissonance has only left me with new complaints. They do too much restrictive poo poo to keep up with the "you shouldn't know about there being 2 castles yet" conceit. You don't get access to most warps until you're almost done with the game since they wouldn't want you to accidentally stumble on new castle areas, and there's a good stretch after the first warp from one castle to another where save points are put in stupid places too far apart, and then you come across the really dumb castle designs due to stuff being unnecessarily blocked off twice over (like with a locked door and a breakable wall, or a locked door and super jump).

Mind you the game is still fun, it just seems like they kind of force you to get 200% before you're in a position to beat the game since you're manually going all over the place instead of being able to take advantage of warps.

Granted Juste is the most agile motherfucker in the series but that just ends up getting me into trouble more often than not. I kept dying in spectacularly stupid ways because I kept sliding everywhere and taking small chip damage on enemies I'm wanting to skip.
