THE CASTLE IS, IN FACT, A LITERAL DEMON.
Although it is the name of the game (in japan), it isn't just the name but a fact and explanation to why the castle is different in every game. Here is a quote from the game:

Maria : this castle is different than I remember it.

Alucard: This castle is a creature of Chaos. It may take many incarnations.

[Thebrotherhoodofgaming]

Number 44 is incorrect. Alucard is not the first main playable character in the castlevania series who is not part of the Belmont Clan. anybody remember John Morris? Castlevania Bloodlines?

Fact: You will not be able to complete the bestiary if you did not kill a mudman summoned by the lesser demon. That one fight is the only instance where the mudman appears.

"I'm interested in this"

Hiring Ayami Kojima was a fantastic decision. She has truly defined the aesthetic and feel of the franchise. Even though Konami eventually got other artists to change the art direction, Kojima's work is still most memorable and unique.

[mrcokez]

looks like i'm replaying SOTN again.

[MikeySeregon]

13:21
Her name is SYPHA Belnades, not Sophia Belnades.

[aoifedouganmusic]

'they both share the surname 'tepes''
it's pronounced 'tepesh'
'tepezzz'
TEPESSHHH

[dsdom]

How did you not mention that you can play as Richter if you beat the upside down castle and then name yourself Richter, or the luck mode cheat. unless you did and I just dozed off.

[Syndo]

The confessional room was so creepy and cool. I wanted there to be more to it. I would do it over and over and try and find more secrets.

[AlphaOmegaSin]

Forever and always will be one of my favorite games of all time
Also pretty damn happy to see some facts on here I never knew about and I thought I knew just about everything about this lol

[leon]

I cannot believe that this masterpiece of a game was discounted at one point. Me and my daughter who is in high school are still playing this game today in 2021 And it's holding up better than most games that came out around it's time.

[jesusadrianaltamiranourunu]

You missed the Gradius homage when you equip the Shield Rod and do a quick Left - Right motion that makes the Shield Rod shoot forward Gradius' _"spinning cogwheel"_ shields.

[existentialismtyrant]

been gaming since 1982 and this game is still in my top 5 today. it's timeless and i finish it once a year and each time it brings me back to the time when it was first released

[AozoraOrigami]

the games working title was NOT the bloodletting ... thats the fan given name of the cancelled sega 32X game....

[mitsuruhype]

Okay but Maria is playable in the Sega Saturn version, though this version was only released in Japan. You do not have to collect the Axe Armor to restart the game with it, you need simply clear the game once and name your file AXEARMOR and if you wish to play through the game as Richter, you can name the file RICHTER to do so once again after completing the game a single time, which allows you to fight all bosses that do not have a cutscene attached to them aside from Shaft who will be Richter's final boss, omitting Dracula. You also overlooked the fact that the Sega Saturn version of the game contained an additional area known as the Underground Garden and the Alucard Spear item, which is a weapon that appears a few times in other games of the series.

[fatenabu]

The telescope thing is false, just a modern urban legend.. The ferryman appears no matter what..

[tarrker]

A few corrections:

10:33 - The ferryman will appear so long as you have the mermaid statue regardless of weather or not you peered across the lake from the viewing room in the outer wall.

11:31 - You are always immune to damage when petrified except from creatures that have a petrifying attack. This will be the case regardless of weather or not you are a gargoyle.

12:04 - You don't need to pick up the Axearmor item to replay as the blue Axearmor guy. You just have to have beaten the game and then saved it. Then you can just start a new game with the name "AXEARMOR" and you'll be the Axearmor. That's good too because the Axearmor item is really friggin hard to get.

17:45 - "Playthrough" LoL they fought two bosses, wandered aimlessly and then ended the series at a random save point.

This game is still one of my favorite 2D RPG's.

[Elligons]

This is one of my favorite games. I loved that it tricks you into thinking you completed the game, but you actually have to go to the upside down castle to win it. I enjoy the array the weapons and interaction with familiars. I'm glad familiars were brought back in another game later on. I like to call them vampire pokemon.
