I guess Danger Mouse got tired of Berumondo's shit and terminated the lease 3;
Can't help feeling the watch got punted with a certain vengeance, the poor thing being AC's only decent subweapon.
Nice cheesin' 1ALL.
It's hard when your game was punted out the door rebadged and unfinished, only to take
four consecutive top-rope elbows from Splatterhouse, Daimakaimura, Jigoku Meguri,

But... one huge issue all but ruins the game: it has NO CHALLENGE WHATSOEVER. The absolute easiest classicvania. So easy that's there's no damage scaling and you can facetank through everything. So easy that if you die to Dracula's final form, you'll start at his final form. So easy that if you fall in a pit you'll respawn on a platform! You will almost certainly 1cc it your very first run, and unless there's something hidden, Revisited has no second loop or higher difficulty. No reason to ever touch it again. Hugely disappointing.
Hm, wasn't expecting that.
Ah well. Sounds like a fun ride at the least, ty 4 forward reconnaissance ;w;7
Hamster as always in with the save, Akumajou Dracula (1988) being on ACA in
stunning Gotch quality. 
Even has the North American rev, for those S&M occasions!

Order of Ecclesia is the big release in this package, for me.
DOMINATION 
Looking forward to revisiting DoS, too. A lot of good friends love it, but I ended up rushing it to play Ecclesia instead, which all the noobs were making sound
UHMAZIN with their whining of getting
bummed unmercifully in smaller, more linear, discrete stages. They were right! Well, about the latter.
You must remember your warrior blood!
Or acquire it. 
I have to be absolutely balls-out into a game to tolerate it on portables, just not my thing at all, so DoS became a fond vague memory. Conversely, there were times in Ecclesia I might as well have been playing on an Astro City hooked up to my old man's beast wood 70s speakers, the tactical ultraviolence was radiating off the tiny screen. Fond memories of equipping Agony and a pair of trench daggers, then pulverising a certain ambusher's face, DPS rocketing as HP plummeted into the red. Such a rad trip.
I didn't even finish PoR, can't say I'm all that motivated, but who knows. Great to have it around for reference, in any case. I got a few areas in at the time and went "Yeah I'm good." Really wasn't in the mood for a third consecutive IGA canon assassination, either. Isn't it
~Funny and Weird~ how all three of IGA's sequels involve the old protagonists getting humiliated and shoved aside by his Mary S
*coof* I mean, very interesting new characters? Hm!
Not to rag on the man. He employs
a lot of good people in his grocery stores. And he
also displayed serious directorial chops by enlisting Nakazato for Ecclesia! Much as Hagigara did for SOTN, when IGA was the coffee guy!
And for all HoD's teething problems as IGA's first time in the captain's chair, he did at least give Takeshi
"Hard Vampire Corps Killer" Takeda a last hurrah.
It's best to remember the good things. ;w;7
I ask the players!
