@@Cdmxeidmeimdiexmiexwell, there's...(deep breath) Vampyr, vampire: the masquerade, blood omen, legacy of kain,bloodrayne series, bloodstained series, infamous: festival of blood, code vain, vampire survivors, redfall... Whew. That's just to name a few. Lol The closest of them to Castlevania would be the Bloodstained series. Curse of the Moon is more old style (8 or 16 bit.. Can't recall off the top of my head), where Ritual of the Night is more like Symphony of the Night with better graphics etc. Hope this helps.
@@Cdmxeidmeimdiexmiex Not sure if its within your taste but there's a dating sim where you play as a young vampire looking to find his wife. It's titled Imadoki Vampire: Bloody Bride.
@@reincarnatedsoul1341 That's fair. Not everyone has a taste for a classical style of composition, and I feel like that's what they went for in 4, was a more gothic/classical style of sound. Music in general is just a matter of personal preference.
I bought the Turbo Duo and ordered this game from Japan when it launched. Still have it to this day. Looks exactly the same, new condition. The Turbo Duo unfortunately died on me long ago but i can still play it via emulation on my PC. Will always be my all time favorite video game.
i actually remember when i learned that a video game can be 'bad'.. which was superman 64. before that the concept of a bad game was not even something i could understand. which you think i would of learned when i played shaq fu... but when i played that i still thought commercials were just small tv shows hehe. i actually remember when i figured out all those small tv shows all had one thing in common, which was they wanted you to buy something. a bit of innocence lost there i guess haha
Ah the original rondo of blood this is one of the best in the series it was the last to conclude Castlevania classic style before it became Metroidvania and it did a great job 👏 from amazing music to level design and gameplay mechanics to the aesthetics and art style all are superb. The games difficulty isn’t like its predecessor’s its much more easer for newcomers yet offer a decent challenge for them enemies and bosses and traps and the placement of them all play a major part in it the branching paths that contains different levels with different music you also have other playable character that all increases the replay value Edit : it seems there are games with the classic play style after rondo Bloodlines, Dracula X (Different version of rondo), Chronicles (PS1), The adventure rebirth (remake of adventure) Those are really good games I definitely recommend them if you like the classic Play style also Bloodstained
This game has so many hidden aspects that you have to find in order to unlock all the levels that it feels cheap. No one would’ve figured this out 30 years ago without buying a guide magazine
@@moonsoon1038But there isn't intelligence involved. It's guesswork. Barring Igavanias, since the player needs to think about how to get past the halfway point.
I just finished my first playthrough. Besides 5b, I didn't use a guide. Most of it was just hitting walls and falling down certain pits that looked suspicious. Also, replaying levels a lot and going through alternate paths
@5:28, lol no one ever takes the left secret side (hit the two upper bricks and you can go under this whole area) which will lead you to the watersnake boss.
I actually found the serpent boss first when I was looking for a castlevania game on the PSP and did not know until yesterday that the actual first boss is the wyvern.
I had never seen any gameplay from this game until now. I can now see why it is so closely tied to Symphony. The soundtrack is similar, and the levels are very similar, as well. Plus, many of the enemies carried over from the two games.
@@davidatkins7444 lol I watched this just for that boss battle. The sword keeps hitting me everytime I strike him as it is so long and I didn’t master the jump over the floating head. Going to the right instead of up the stairs when you kill the flea is actually way easier to set yourself up for the final part
43:00 Annette was given a *special gothic makeover as a Boss* on that chapter in the PSP reboot port should u *fail to rescue her* & the 3 addtional girls with it during this run, not only does she *replace Faust G* but she also is turned into a SuucibiVamp & given some dialonge that depends on if either Ritcher or Maria is present when meeting her. this vanilla port luckly does not include that on here.
Hey man, you are doing great at this game. As long as you are having fun, That all that matters. So ignore the guys saying that you are bad at the game.
Huh, they used the PC Engine CD version rather than the PSP version for a PS5 release. I wonder if they used the original SOTN or the later re-dub. It's almost like this is Konami's little cash grab pairing for whenever there's a new system. It's not a bad set, it's just that most Castlevania fans have already played them on older systems.
The whole collection is a port of The Dracula X chronicles minus the psp remake, so yes the psp redub is used, that also means the difference in sound effects in sotn and Maria's gameplay are there too. Oh and this is ps4 backwards compatibility. There's no native ps5 version.
@@Prophecy2fulfill yeah I tell its way different I have played them both recently Dracula X was ok but man rondo of blood became the best Castlevania game I have ever played even among 4 and the Metroidvania ones
How is he able to regain health after entering certain rooms. I noticed his score goes to 00, and there is a "rest" above where the score would go. Is this a mechanic on all versions of the game or only by emulator? I wanted to try and play this with Requiem but don't know if I can rest there too
He just edits out some of the deaths so it's not overly long. I died at least 200 times in my playthrough. The "Rest 00" just means he has no more lives left before he gets game over. You start with Rest 03 and the rest counter comes up briefly each time you die and come back.
So that's why I always thought there was more to the story of Dracula X; it was half translated from Rondo of Blood and I just knew about this one about a year ago or so. Anyway I like more the SNES graphics and music don't know why though

Slaying vampires and rescuing babes.

Could u post a video on it
Fix it
The PC Engine Mini is nice and includes this game too.
All your Turbo Duo needs is a recapping(new electrolytic capacitors installed). It's guaranteed to work like new after that.

the branching paths that contains different levels with different music you also have other playable character that all increases the replay value

You seem to be forgetting about Bloodlines
@@Zephhialso to be fair to it. Non canon. But castlevania legends dropped after symphony. Obviously not the same level of experience

I got this game at home and still haven’t beat it yet. The music is amazing
Bgm at 3rd stage is Richters signature themed music
Just like Alucard in Sotn 1st area entrance
When you face Dracula and don't hear "What is man ..." :D
They really got Dio voice actor to do Dracula
Jin kazama 😂
You misspelled Arthas Menethil.
The music as always amazing.
That epic childhood feeling because of music

I like this playthrough it isn't overly perfect
PC-Engine year 1993 game, from my view, this game is classic and 1 of the best bgm game in 90s, good job konami 👍🏼
@5:28, lol no one ever takes the left secret side (hit the two upper bricks and you can go under this whole area) which will lead you to the watersnake boss.
I actually found the serpent boss first when I was looking for a castlevania game on the PSP and did not know until yesterday that the actual first boss is the wyvern.
Why are people complaining about a game that came out in the 90s? Of course it's going to look like this. It's not a 2020 - 23 game.
I got this game at home and still haven’t beat it yet. It is no joke lol
This game I finished in mega drive the original rondo of blood ,I love Castlevania.
Who else yelled when he picked the knives instead of going for the axe?
This, CV3 and SOTN are the goated trinity of old school Castlevania.
you can tell designer had lot inspirition from first vampire hunter d movie in terms of style!
Yeah, I'm getting those vibes from the artwork alone. It's so cool.
Wow, they gave Richter a new voice for this re-release. A hard but good classic from 3 decades ago.
when he grab the knife to boss match i knew already what will happend😂😂😂😂
I had never seen any gameplay from this game until now. I can now see why it is so closely tied to Symphony. The soundtrack is similar, and the levels are very similar, as well. Plus, many of the enemies carried over from the two games.
Just got this yesterday and the game is bullying me HARD. Still great though.
Yea I been stuck on stage four for four months

Whoa that's a big pot roast 19:38
Yup. Thanks again!!!
How about a Legends of Dragoon Walkthrough???
Stage 5 looks fire 🔥🔥🔥 I have this game at home I have to end this game one day.
Love the game 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Rondo of blood is the best Castlevania game. Sotn is the best Metroidvania next to the sorrow games.
Am playing now the psp version ROB still amazes me
11:25 Hey, mister, who are you? A good guy?
Amazing intro in German. Epic.
Wow this game is so wonderful
even the back flip he didn't even know sheeeesh
I said it before and will say it again, Richter moves better in Rondo of Blood than his clunky version in the PSP remake Dracula X Chronicles
why is this not on switch like symphony of the night bothers me highly.
29:57 How can I execute this special attack using the PS5 gamepad?
The OST is a Banger !
i think you can hit projectiles coming your way instead of crouching down
I love DraculaX a lot and I had beaten it 100s of times already. But I Love ROB a lot more.
Bgm at 3rd stage is Richters signature themed music
Just like Alucard in Sotn 1st area entrance
Very nice! Liked!💯✌🏾😃💯✌🏾😃
6:20 Ridley! it's too soon to genre hop, oh wait just a purple dragon...I call hacks, or fun coincidence.
This game is so hard I can’t get past level 2!!!
Took me two days!! It’s the baptism of fire 🥵
The music snaps.
This is way more better than the psp on my perspective... 😅
Ver um video desse em 4k faz tanto sentido quanto escuta musica no mudo
I love that the German Narrator is also the Voice of Dracula in the Netflix Series
Hey man, you are doing great at this game. As long as you are having fun, That all that matters. So ignore the guys saying that you are bad at the game.
Only they came up with this theme for Netflix's Castlevania.😢
how did you get the audio in german?
Huh, they used the PC Engine CD version rather than the PSP version for a PS5 release. I wonder if they used the original SOTN or the later re-dub.

Nah not many people get to play the original rondo of blood what we got is a half assed version called Dracula X
Already got it on PSP....money saved!
31:35. Oh I LOATHED this part!
I think I remember playing this on the SNES but it was called something like Castlevania Dracula X
I think even that was different from the original.
@@Prophecy2fulfill yeah I tell its way different I have played them both recently Dracula X was ok but man rondo of blood became the best Castlevania game I have ever played even among 4 and the Metroidvania ones

Yeah that game also rock in fact SOTN and ROB are from the same director Toru Hagihara

The "Rest 00" just means he has no more lives left before he gets game over. You start with Rest 03 and the rest counter comes up briefly each time you die and come back.
They should make Richter run like in SOTN, just that.
Start button sounds like a taco bell ready to blow the bathroom up warning fart
still better than the netflix series
What about the game utilizes the ps5 engine? Like it seems like a 16 bit castlevania game.
Castlevania Nocturne 28.09.23
Won’t be an adaptation of this. It will just use the characters for an original story.
So that's why I always thought there was more to the story of Dracula X; it was half translated from Rondo of Blood and I just knew about this one about a year ago or so. Anyway I like more the SNES graphics and music don't know why though
I wonder how did richter escape Dracula's castle
Those games were challenging indeed
You tried to make the bosses seem more challenging. We all know holy water ends them.
I can't get pass that dam werewolf on stage 2
Alguien sabe si puedo conseguir o como puedo jugar castelvania symphoni of the night?
This is Castlevania. Not that Netflix trash.
The axe is the best sub weapon.
Thanks
Amazing
Don't understand why they did away with the ability to swing the whip at 45 degrees or straight up or down. Doesn't make sense.
Castlevania 🔥
amazing MegaDrive graphic's on ps5
Please play Castlevania curse of darkness 🙏🙏🙏🙏
This avatar are nice. Great
Esta disponible par el switch
Desafortunadamente no. Esta colección está disponible solo para PS4, que tiene este juego y Symphony of the Night.
Can we play it Fullscreen? We had that option?
i hope could play the psp remake at my ps5 soon
Wow this is good one
This game is CBT when compared to SOTN
Richter looks like Deutschamerikaner.
😂😂😂
They should have include the PSP remake, it was so much better
picked this up on sale for less than 3 bucks
Awesome
Good one
wonderful game
Beautiful game
Great
Nice
