This was an earth-shattering moment in video gaming history. It sends shivers up my spine to this day. Makes my eyes water. "Here's TRUE POWER!" You will never, ever see a man utter those words in a way that will ring so true.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" When I played this, it was at night and I had the volume up when I heard Dracula scream. It scared the fuck outta me! Even when dying, Dracula is terrifying.
Holding back my tears at how melodramatic and corny the dialogue is while also gushing at how epic the battle music is while Dracula banters with Richter. Truly is a weird mixture of emotions. I fucking love this intro lmao 😭
This in Netflix form (Hope this doesn't come across as too silly) Richter: "At last. The legendary vampire. You're one to defeat, I hear?" Dracula: "Perhaps. T'is been a while since I encountered your caliber of hunters." Richter: "I intend to be the last one. You'd be a fool to think that I'd allow the likes of you to decide the fate of this world. It does not need your judgement." Dracula: "I hope you understand the irony of such rhetoric. Did you know humanity has decided its own fate? They seek desolation, thus they called me forth with a blood tribute. Who am I to deny their desires?" Richter: "Do not try to justify your malice and theft. You'd rob people of their souls and their will to dominate them. As if those people asked for such fates!" Dracula: "My good hunter, belief drives mankind. They would adhere to the will of those stronger and more promising than themselves. Perhaps you should consider the implications of your own religion. Is it not the will of your own God that drives you to strike me down?" Richter: "The decision is mine alone. Your words ring hollow, and I'll protect humanity from the chaos you preach as-" Dracula: (Interrupting) "Let me tell you of humanity! All I see within them is greed and deception! They represent a lust for power! I know all too well! No more... I am the one with true power." (Dance of Illusion cues up) Dracula: "But enough talk! HAVE AT YOU!"
i love how, except for that last sentence (it's like you just had to do it), you managed to combine both the English and the Japanese version dialogues into one.
@@NeoArashi The entire fight, the intro cutscene where he throws the wine glass gets up from his throne and teleports into the battle, and he had the same design for both regular form and true form.
@@frozennoodles1728 Not entirely correct. The whip has been completely remade twice (Technically 3 times if you count the Morningstar variant but that's still up for debate) throughout the franchise, and not every Belmont has held the Vampire Killer variant. The first whip was the Alchemist's whip, first seen in the hands of Leon Belmont, and later many other Belmont's of the clan. And the final evolution of the whip, the Vampire Killer, was held by the rest of the Belmont bloodline and the Morris Clan Select few held the Alchemist whip, Others the Vampire Killer
The VA in this game sucks, its almost as bad as RE1, except it isn't funny. Only Dracula can pull of a decent performance. That said, the astounding writing makes up for it.
@jcstl88 didn't played HoD Sadly :/ so i would say this one is the best ! I looked some videos of HoD and it must be really good, so dunno if can zoom or not
The original design depicts him with short hair, but the Ayami Kojima´s style pictured him with the opposite, but in the Dracula X Chronicles remake of Rondo, he has short hair.
Ah, I see. Well, thank you that is extremely helpful advice. I won't say what I have been doing or trying to do anyways but it wasn't the right move obviously lol. Oh, well at least now I know what to do. Anways, like I said thank you very much for the information RedGrass.
A única coisa ruim é essa dublagem broxante do Richter. O dublador do Drácula é foda mas o do Richter parece que tá com preguiça de falar. Não tem emoção nenhuma nas falas dele
Probably the greatest and most profound dialogue in game history.
*Literary history
Just found out that they changed it on psn
Is this ironic?
If this version of Dracula were real, I’d side with him. And yes, I’d love to become one of his vampires.
@@genokugel I really hope so
"But enough talk, have at you"
stuffs about to get real
(RoB's events are but a dream) theory confirmed! He just snuck up Dracula's room secretly, and everything else before is just a concussion dream!
When I first played this Game as Richter on the intro, I said the same thing.
Just noticed that Richter's voice actor was Chris in the original Resident Evil.
Sable Branwen wait what? Really?
Yep and Dracula is voiced by the same voice actor who voiced Harry Mason from the first Silent Hill game
I was wondering that actually. Back then some character voices were generic compared to now with actors like Matthew Mercer and Roger Craig Smith
DUDE I KNEW IT!!! It sounded just like Chris!!
And the narrator for Tekken 5
This was an earth-shattering moment in video gaming history. It sends shivers up my spine to this day. Makes my eyes water. "Here's TRUE POWER!" You will never, ever see a man utter those words in a way that will ring so true.
I believe he says “this fight’s over, grant me power!”
Fun fact… Dracula’s 2nd form was also in the 1st Castlevania game on the NES.
@@officegossip but he also says "Here's TRUE POWER!" at 2:30
@@officegossipHe says both.
“You steal men’s souls and make them you slaves.” “Perhaps the same could be said of all religion.”
Omg so epic
No no, Dracula's got a point.
Dracula does, in fact, have a point.
“So DeEp OmG hOw CoUlD i Be So BlInD”
Did God steals? No, he creates. Not claiming any creation that already been existing to his own.

What better time to play a Castlevania than at night, maybe even during All Hallow's Eve.
Especially the Japanese version. He sounds like he's being gutted.

Gave me goosebumps.
We got him in smash boi

yeah BOI!!!!
What's smash?
A miserable little pile of Fanservice.
None of us would have thought that this dialogue would be so cult when we listened to it for the first time, alone at the time in our room
This in Netflix form (Hope this doesn't come across as too silly)
Richter: "At last. The legendary vampire. You're one to defeat, I hear?"
Dracula: "Perhaps. T'is been a while since I encountered your caliber of hunters."

Damn, that's impressively well-written
👏👏👏
I hope you pitch this idea ma boi

@@AndyKusanagi86 I admit, I like that "Have at you" line far too much. Just too iconic to resist, in my opinion.
Such a great opening...the effects, the music, the voices (in combat, as before they blow). I
Even a 2D game and still surpasses in quality many UE4 3D games.
I can't believe they referenced this in Smash XD
b2j135 lol yea that was so cool to see
What exactly did they reference? Pardon my ignorance
"DIE MONSTER!"
They referenced it in Guacameele 2 :D
@@NeoArashi The entire fight, the intro cutscene where he throws the wine glass gets up from his throne and teleports into the battle, and he had the same design for both regular form and true form.
One of the best game's ever.
Este juego lo tuvo todo ! Su intro su música etc
Can't wait to see Netflix upcoming new Castlevania series.
Such dramatic voice acting! 😈🎬
Well done! 🏆🖤
Richter voice actor is terrible, but I love it!
"die monster, you don't belong in this world..." 😂😂😂
Haha i like this one more than the other version we have on PS Store with Rondo of Bloods :(
But the same voice actor is Chris Redfield
"But enough talk, have at you" !
Can’t wait when this scene gets adapted into like season 8 of the castlevannia anime in 2025 lmao
Anyone else here excited for Castlevania: Nocturne?
No, this can not be AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH CRYES OUT
*_HOLY CROSS!_*
That move is so cool !
I hear HEAVY CROSS

2:29 "Heres true POWER!"
Die monster you dont belong in this world is my ringtone lol
Haha its a nice one
"And that's how I defeated Dracula once and for all"
"That's bullshit!"
O Castlevania "Sinfonia da Noite" é excelente, os melhores jogos do Konami.
Way better than Interview with the Vampire
Greatest voice acting in videogame history!!!
Indeed ! Better than the new one :(
This is actually the last level of Rondo of Blood, not Bloodlines
And the name of Rondo of Blood's final level? Bloodlines.
Actually both
Yes because it's spelled blood lines in the rob translation in dracula x chronicles
@@zero-one2585 same thing tbh bloodlines or blood lines.
Dracula: 3:21
Richter: And that's how I easily destroyed Count Dracula once and for all!
That’s bullshit!!!!

Me encanta esa intro de la PS1 con las voces y los guiones originales.
I love his evil laugh
This is classic 👍🏻
Dracula’s VA was so much more committed than Richter’s. Jehtt has a good point
“What is a man!?”
É de longe a melhor trilha sonora já criada.
1:35 I don't think Richter can say that to dracula.
Why does the voiceacting sound like it was recorded with a Nokia flip-phone underwater?
A Nokia flip phone is actually alot more durable and well made than today's cheap all glass smartphone junk.
@@MaPee1982 I’ve never had a flip-phone before-but for some reason-I believe you.
@@MaPee1982 fun to play too
@joeymoncivais The name is "Dance of illusions", sorry for the late answer i didn't have my net :)
It's the same fucking whip Trevor used in Castlevania Netflix Series. Fucking EPIC

I guess I'm a miserable little pile of secrets.
The best game ever made for konami .... Just for me.
One of the best goddamn video games of all time.
imho the english voice acting here is superb, even more so than most of the english voice acting in most games of this generation.
The VA in this game sucks, its almost as bad as RE1, except it isn't funny. Only Dracula can pull of a decent performance.

Goodness you thought this was good? 🤣🤣🤣
@@jknintendo in a sense of irony the person who voiced Richter voiced Chris in RE1
Funny how I got a Castlevania Grimoire of Souls ad before watching this

Ngl, I was hoping Syhpa to name Trevor’s kid Richter and see this on season 5.

You can jump over Drac's 3 fireballs and get a third hit in that way.

Great!

what the heck is the stairway inside the ceiling?
wonder why Richter on the conversation picture have long hair. on pc engine hadbit short.
The original design depicts him with short hair, but the Ayami Kojima´s style pictured him with the opposite, but in the Dracula X Chronicles remake of Rondo, he has short hair.
Safiloo1 From what I know, at a certain point Symphony Of The Night's development was rushed and they didn't changed the sprite.

Better story then twilight
Dracula: HO HUH HUH
whats the name of the track at 3:39
it's called Moonlight Nocturne
nooo porque el agua bendita eso que quitaba emoción a la pelea. que ya sabemos ganará... pero igual es mejor el final con la cruces volando
