    • Castlevania Chronicles...
    Out of nowhere I heard that there was a brand new fan-made Castlevania 2 remake for the PC with all new graphics, sound, and some extras. Being a big fan of the original NES version, there was no way I could pass this one up. Now that the leather whip only challenge is complete and version 1.2 is released, I decided to do a 100% completion, no death run. This playthrough collects all items, remains, subweapons, and whips and gets the "good ending", all without dying once. I also tried to make creative use of all the subweapons at times, just for fun. Here are some highlights:
    20 seconds - This is just a fun thing that happens when you choose "Continue" when there is no save file. Aaaaah! Does this now count as a "one death" run before it even started?
    3 minutes, 10 seconds - Do rapid taps on the stairs for maximum enjoyment.
    20 minutes - You're supposed to crouch for a few seconds with the blue crystal here like in the original, but that doesn't necessarily mean you need to be standing at the edge of the platform. Safety first!
    22 minutes, 40 seconds - This is an odd area that I think you can only get to if you're hit in a specific way. In previous versions there was a chest up here with a small amount of money but in version 1.2 there seems to be nothing.
    33 minutes, 20 seconds - This wolfman got frozen in place here. That's fun.
    40 minutes - The lightning that strikes this boss when he dies can hurt you. Beware!
    41 minutes - Make sure you dance to Battle of the Holy. It's an amazing song.
    43 minutes, 50 seconds - There's a bit of a glitch here in version 1.2 when you enter the town of Alba from the right side. It starts you in the church instead of the beginning of the town.
    45 minutes - This woman likes you. Make sure to say hello for no reason.
    50 minutes, 55 seconds - You can face away and still get the lightning to strike here if you're very precise. You can also jump "out of" the fall here. I see no reason to do either of these tricks. Who is the guy in the tree though?
    55 minutes, 30 seconds - I forgot to demonstrate this fully but Carmilla cannot be damaged by your whip shortly before, during, and after she's firing her big blast. Subweapons can still damage her in this state though so toss a knife or something to get that extra damage in.
    58 minutes - Here's a nice trick to handle the ghosts. It even works on the floating platforms if you need to do it there.
    1 hour, 16 minutes, 50 seconds - Here's a fun way to use the cross/boomerang.
    1 hour, 22 minutes - The key thing to know in this boss battle is that while Trevor is flashing after being hit, he cannot hurt you. This is your chance to slide past him and strike the others.
    1 hour, 40 minutes, 20 seconds - The axe subweapon is useful against the final boss so I max my hearts here.
    1 hour, 42 minutes, 30 seconds - This part is so beautiful that I had to stop and watch.

    Final thoughts:
    Generally I only try these sorts of difficult challenges on games that I really enjoy and this was no exception. Warmachine Studios did a fantastic job here and I recommend this game to anyone who enjoys the original. Actually, even if you dislike the original or haven't played it, play this game!

    • @subledger.
      @subledger.  28 дней назад

      Unfortunately the mansions are sealed forever after beating them so any subweapon that might be in there can't be retrieved after the doors are barred. Kind of frustrating but at least it isn't required to beat the game. Thanks for watching!

    Thank got they god rid most of towns water pits and wow so much bosses added original only had 2 and so much addition they did really good job i'd say what an amazing soundtrack i really like the darkness feature in mansion like limited vision this is so amazing
    Also the statue heal you and currency and heart is now being 2 diffrent things.. the original Simon quest doesn't even have floating candle to whip

      I had a great time with this game. The slide also adds an interesting element that allows you to get around faster and avoid damage if you use it correctly, and the map was a nice addition as well as the extra subweapons. There are also some other secrets that weren't in the original that added some replay value. If anyone reading this is interested in downloading this game or the soundtrack then check out the video description for a link. The same guy (WarMachine Studios) also just released his version of Castlevania III called "Castlevania Chronicles III - Dracula's Curse" that follows the same sort of "reimagining" formula. I have a deathless playthrough of it in the link below if you want to see what it looks like and if you want to give it a try (or just grab the soundtrack) then there's a link in that video description that will get you where you need to be.

    That Carmilla fight almost made me quit. I'm loving this remake, but damn. I know the bosses in the original SQ were famously criticized for being too easy, but that didn't mean they needed to turn the corner into needlessly sadistic.

    • @subledger.
      @subledger.  22 дня назад

      Yeah she's brutal! Carmilla was most definitely the hardest part of the leather whip only challenge! You do so little damage with the leather whip that you have to be doing consistent damage and hope she doesn't use the healing move too often since it heals more than you can damage her. That video is here if anyone is interested...(Carmilla fight is at 40:20).

    • @subledger.
      @subledger.  Год назад +1

      Hmm...So you have Dracula's Heart and have made it past the Belasco Marsh, and now you're at the ferryman that guides you across the Dead River right? I don't remember having any major issues here but I did run into a minor glitch around 43:50 where after crossing the Dead River it starts you in the church of the next town instead of at the beginning of the town. Are you playing on version 1.2 (the latest version as of now)? Also, what exactly do you mean by getting locked out, and which path were you taking? For example, were you heading to the town of Alba, Brahms Mansion, or Belasco Marsh?

      castlevania and rock ambience just does not match, the perfect match its like lament of innocence or wathever other game like order of eclessia and others, yes, there are rocks songs but only for some special bosses, in other words, the ambience needed to be like a classical old times or some time of electro, for me, rock just does not match, salute
