In other game quicksave allows you to load once. In Castlevania: HoD, quicksave saves your progress. If you die or reload the game, you will reload at the last save point with your progress and items intact. The tip is to quicksave often
I’m playing this again right now in the Castlevania Advanced Collection, and I must say, it feels so damn good to be reunited with this game again, as well as COTM and AOS. I had some fun memories when playing this back on my Gameboy Advance and GameCube Gameboy Player. Now Konami needs to release the Castlevania DS Collection with DOS, POR and OOE. Then finally the Castlevania 3-D Collection with Castlevania 64, LOD, LOI, and COD. That would be so damn great if they do. I did used to have all of the Castlevanias and the systems that they were on, but times of struggle and hardships had me sadly to part with almost all of my Castlevania games and systems.
This is a bit old, and a bit late in saying this, but Juste's dash shadow colour changes depending on what cloak he wears. Emerald cloak gives a green shadow, and Twilight cloak gives him a black shadow. And so on.
Maxim mode is like Richter mode from SOTN - all stats in the game are fixed (including your HP, MP, attack and monster's HP), so it takes fixed hits for you to take out any foe - there's no levelling.
+supermaxi accept Sotn is better than harmony of dissonance no offance I like harmony of dissonance is just it's the sound track it's So Annoying and irritating I l Iike Sotn better.........screw it the truth is I like both Sotn and Harmony of dissonance
Great games! The music in HOD didn't bother me but I like the music in Circle of the Moon better. It's time for me to play through SOTN again soon too!
I have annotations ON, but I think youtube disabled them years ago? Any chance someone could write a little timestamp of what these secrets are? Its a useless video now otherwise...
This some how proves that Juste is the most OP Belmont but the only thing he haven't accomplished is to face the actual Dracula himself. Justifiable because he wasn't given the opportunity but if he really does, I'm pretty sure he can beat Dracula no problem.
Harmony of Dissonance came after Circle of the Moon, with design choices that are evident of such. Making the entire game super bright and making the main character outlined was directly a response to complaints about the more dreary colored and harder to see Nathan from CotM. Even the difficulty was toned down in Harmony of dissonance, because Circle of the Moon was so hard.
COTM was a far better game in my opinion. So much more of a challenge and a lot more fun. HOD felt just kinda depressing and monotonous. The music was generally trash with a few memorable tunes. COTM was like the most fun.
is there anyway to go through the wall in maxim mode? like people's speedrun maxim mode videos, i saw them go through wall going straight to the last boss and stuff
i have a question...? in maxim mode is posible make the 200% in map? because i have 198.3% the only thing left is the square room in the center (in this video 2:23) in castle A... you know how to open? thanks and sorry for my english
hi buddy sorry for my english, i have a secret, in the room where you find the ring of Vlad U can get it form the fist time that you seen it wihtout double jump, frist do U have to get sacred fist+ice book, then jump to ring & use the spell sacred fist+ice book and you can get it from the start! U can do the same thing wiht a "hearts max" & "antivenom" before the ring of vlar and where is the logoth's ring, and i can get the walk armor before the super jump, just wait for a while & use the ghost
What kinds of gameplay recording applicatkons were people using at the time that made the game footage look so desaturated? I kinda like it in an odd way, it feels antique
ok... where do you get the keys for the rainbow colored doors and the red vampire looking doors and how do you get to castle B ? all i found were teleports that put me to different layers of the castle not a completly different version of it
5:25 to 5:49 in the video...Gradius/Nemesis/Parodious/Omaterious reference much? Then again, Kid Dracula/Alucard was in Parodious and both games were made by Konami, so...?
It's also super OP when you realize the second one can be manipulated with your constantly shifting position. This means the 2 will never connect, and the top one will damage enemies and never shrink
+CaptainFarthouse I've already completed the game way too months ago, hehe. Anyway, I tried with all the filters, obviously, but none of them has the same quality as this one.
@@trashcan5000 -- yeah that god damn bracelet, could have been clearer on that in the game. i'm just where he is 9I think 122% total?), and i have been running around an hour, i look up a playthough and see them take out a bracelet at a door ive been to 3 times... ARGH It was 7 years ago, but glad to see someone else is stuck exactly where i am :)
@tehremnantz Rainbow colored = You have to beat Maxim. The other key: I think it's in the caverns in Castle B. Those warps are the ones that takes you to Castle B. The first warp to Castle B is on the Clock Tower, after you defeat the Giant Slime.
The hint cards are essentially useless, except hint card4/5 which helps you teleport. Using a walkthrough when you are stuck is the best bet, this game is probably the most cryptic/obscure of the post SOTN Castlevanias.

I love that this comment is 3 months old and this video is 11 years old
@@pearljaime2 that’s the thing about Castlevania, it’s timeless.
Castlevania chronicles should be on the DS collection
@@vegeta4882 it should have, I love that game and it’s remixed music.
OOE was my least favorite on the DS. The difficulty was cranked up and it seemed as if it was missing an important element.
5:23 Gradius shield

Fredderick The Irregular Hunter the sound too when it hits something, its the same with the game gradius.
and here I am wondering why gradius 5 isn't being ported to ps4

lol dem small details

Oh God I was playing this game for so long and didn't realise this, thanks for the tip 😂👍
Crimsom cloak makes your shadow red too! That surprised me a lot When I noticed it

Trevor mode on CoD
I discovered that the Spell Book deactivation command is by crouching and pressing *at the same time* L and R, instead of being something random.
no fucking way! so many years and this is new for me!
@@Alexis2099 The video said a lot more, but alas, the annotations are long gone now.
No... no way... I played the entire game with heart full because I didn't know that...
I have annotations ON, but I think youtube disabled them years ago? Any chance someone could write a little timestamp of what these secrets are? Its a useless video now otherwise...
I did one. Hopefully it helps.
Yea... they been gone thx RUclips

me when no annotations
5:24 The Shield from Gradius!
Was in SotN first
impressive you´re a master of harmony of dissonance and thanks for the tips
Is so sad that the controlls in circle of the moon were not as responsive as in harmony of dissonance
Harmony of Dissonance came after Circle of the Moon, with design choices that are evident of such. Making the entire game super bright and making the main character outlined was directly a response to complaints about the more dreary colored and harder to see Nathan from CotM. Even the difficulty was toned down in Harmony of dissonance, because Circle of the Moon was so hard.
That's why I probably like Circle of the Moon a bit better. Just finished Harmony of Dissonance again, however, and I love it!
iga was not involved in circle of the moon. later games such as HoD AoS and the ds titles iga directed those games
Que dices rayao
COTM was a far better game in my opinion. So much more of a challenge and a lot more fun. HOD felt just kinda depressing and monotonous. The music was generally trash with a few memorable tunes. COTM was like the most fun.
1:35 Best Soundtrack in Castlevania's history
Your opinion. I think this piece of CV music is shit and not comparable with the great music of Super Castlevania IV or Sotn
Doc Spectre Do you know sarcasm?
imo I think HoD had forgettable music although I do like the Juste Theme and the chapel of dissonance track but that's about it for this game.
Because sarcasm gets across very well in text
Sometimes when I go to a supermarket, this song is suddenly stuck in my head
is there anyway to go through the wall in maxim mode? like people's speedrun maxim mode videos, i saw them go through wall going straight to the last boss and stuff
Turn on annotations *is on mobile*
*Deep sigh*
Boi
@Ahmed Malaki RUclips killed the annotations years ago they were like links in the video
You guys are getting annotations?
Awesome!!! Thanks for uploading the vid! Its greats!! :3
@sensitivebeat Don't worry. I hope the tips come handy when you play Harmony of Dissonance
Darn you youtube, i miss annotations
i have a question...? in maxim mode is posible make the 200% in map? because i have 198.3% the only thing left is the square room in the center (in this video 2:23) in castle A... you know how to open? thanks and sorry for my english
hi buddy sorry for my english, i have a secret, in the room where you find the ring of Vlad U can get it form the fist time that you seen it wihtout double jump, frist do U have to get sacred fist+ice book, then jump to ring & use the spell sacred fist+ice book and you can get it from the start!

The merchant has a pretty creepy laugh
you can play as simon in boss rush by doing the konami code when the logo comes up
@Son6of6Tredis Yes, it's a GBA Emualtor. Game's named Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance and it's very similar to SOTN.
Can you explain how to do those secret comands on the begining of the video?
you forgot the konami code at the konami logo(after you beat the game once and get the bossrushmode)
1:31, how do u make that merchant appear and is that castle B or A?
Dan Cooper
Become Level 50.
It's harder than you think.
What kinds of gameplay recording applicatkons were people using at the time that made the game footage look so desaturated? I kinda like it in an odd way, it feels antique
It was 12 years ago, what do you expect? Recording technologies have come a long way
I think the emulator he's using is no$gba which had wrong color values for gba resulting in muted colors
"Turn annotations on."
>:(
ok...
where do you get the keys for the rainbow colored doors and the red vampire looking doors and how do you get to castle B ? all i found were teleports that put me to different layers of the castle not a completly different version of it
MK bracelet for that doors
5:25 to 5:49 in the video...Gradius/Nemesis/Parodious/Omaterious reference much? Then again, Kid Dracula/Alucard was in Parodious and both games were made by Konami, so...?
How do you get those graphics?
pansy ghost with any emulator on your phone, tablet or pc, then you download filters and shaders
How do you get that merchant to show up? The one who has infinite boots
Farm the Noon Star card, from Specter enemy and he appears..
Ok hold up why does this have good graphics. Was there another release besides gameboy advance i dont know about?
Wow! Thanks!
i'm sorry for my bad english? but what with the graphic? Thats cool and like in SOTN! Is this is a filter of some emulator or what?
good video you have earned a subscriber
how to remove a sub weapon?? am sorry for bad english
A monster called "O" can steal your sub-weapon.
How do you turn on annotations? I can't seem to find that option with right-clicking or the settings gear.
.. those have been gone for years
hehe the sacred book + electric book combo give you shields from gradius thats cool i never knew that =D
It's also super OP when you realize the second one can be manipulated with your constantly shifting position. This means the 2 will never connect, and the top one will damage enemies and never shrink
Oh my, Maxim is a ninja o_O
Im playing in retroarch and i cant cast spells what should I do?
for recover, it's UP, DOWN, LEFT, B and not UP, DOWN, LEFT, LEFT, B
UP DOWN RIGHT B... Yes I'm typing this as I am playin this game and just executed it
7:54 How can I get into that place?
Use super jump
@patz2509 No, you can't complete 200% with Maxim because you can't battle yourself :P
Guys! How could color like that???
@LookingForTheTop thankyou i just beat the game at level 49 :D only missing 1 enemy and 1 collectible thing
de que consola es ese juego, de gameboy no es, se ve diferente al mio
De gameboy ADVANCE ,Castlevania harmony of dissonance
good video
4:24 Is that the secret of the Hint Card 6??
Which version is this one? I noticed that the graphics are really improved compared to the GBA version...
+Juan Castrilli I think I used a filter in the GBA emulator for the recording. I don't remember exactly which one because it's been years.
LookingForTheTop cool, thanks! Though I can't find any filter that works that good in the Visual Boy emulator...
+Juan Castrilli It's actually look like no$gba standard filter
try HQ 2x filter
+CaptainFarthouse I've already completed the game way too months ago, hehe. Anyway, I tried with all the filters, obviously, but none of them has the same quality as this one.
Why does the game look darker?
-SuXei999-
It probably has been played on no$gba emulator which looks like the Nintendo DS Phat.
Palette hack most likely
Actually, I beat the game as Maxim.
pasame ese juego por favor
tu precisas de uno emulador (não sei falar espanhõl)
I have 121.2% (53.7% in castle A, 67.5% Castle B) and I don't know what to do...I can't open anything and I can't find any key :S

@tehremnantz Rainbow colored = You have to beat Maxim.
The other key: I think it's in the caverns in Castle B.
Those warps are the ones that takes you to Castle B. The first warp to Castle B is on the Clock Tower, after you defeat the Giant Slime.
My vision is blurry
Enter in the konami code.
How did you bought the boots with no money??
I bet annotations tell you, but WE will never know...
I wonder? Annotations sure would have been nice, FACK
Is this a mod?
no
How the fuck do u do that heal
How to use round portal
Up
yes, is possible......... GO GAMESHARK!!! XD
go to gamefaqs(.)com if you are stuck
^^
turn annotations on. no result
This game. This game is breaking me. I can't find the hint cards and when I do. They are as bad as Simon's quest hints at times. I sort of hate this.
The hint cards are essentially useless, except hint card4/5 which helps you teleport. Using a walkthrough when you are stuck is the best bet, this game is probably the most cryptic/obscure of the post SOTN Castlevanias.
Wtf is annotations? Some thing from 10 years ago?
