With LoS2 out, interest in the saga seems to have grown back to a healthy state, I'm very happy about this since I'm a huge fan of the saga and I admit that things were kind of dead.
Anyway, I'd like to know, which Castlevania game is the best in your opinion, and which one is the worst?
Give some insight.
For me: Best would be Portrait of Ruin, I simply LOVE games with tandem setting and mechanics, plus the variety in enviroments, inventory system, collectibles, plot and quests, it's just a game with a lot to do, huge replay value.
Worst: Harmony of Dissonance, by far...no words can explain the hatred I feel towards this game.
The game is plagued with huuuuuge backtracking issues because of how poorly the dual castle thing was implemented, all those multiple roads and areas at the same time were overwhelming in a bad sense, and both the areas and bosses were completely unrewarding, seeing how only 1% of the game bosses actually give you something after you beat them.
There's only 3 powerups in the game (the slide move, double jump and super jump) and the boss fights were terrible, extremely easy, some of them didn't even attack or move (literally, legion corpse).
But the normal monsters were hard as hell, you could lose over half your HP in 2 areas, and since Juste has no inmunity timer after being hit, if you get stuck in the middle of a large enemy, you're dead in seconds.
Plus the horrible, horrible music, and the fact that Juste looks and moves like a clown.
Yeah, I really hate that game.
