Bloodstained: Ritual Of The Night ("new Castlevania")

[ZenLogikos]

I've got a Steam code for Curse of the Moon, and was looking to trade for the PS4 version. Any takers? PM me.

If you don't have ice (something that will happen with a solo Zangetsu run), you can get a hit or two in, then jump it pretty easily if you're in the middle of the screen. The instant-death nature of the attack makes things a bit more harrowing, but once you know how to dodge effectively, neither will give much issue.

Finally playing this. With Zangetsu, I was able to beat the painting by throwing the sparkly sub-weapon in front of it as it swooped towards me. That knocked it back to the side of the screen, where I could stab it a couple of times. Rinse and repeat.

Do we have any deets on the physical edition? I wonder if it'll include Curse Of The Moon as well?

I hope the physical edition does include Curse of the Moon. If they ever sent me my code for that, it's been lost in my email and I cannot find it.

Do you have access to your pledge management page? The code will be on there. I never got an email from them, but the code just appeared on my pledge page one day.

If you don't have access to your pledge management page, I think there will probably be a link somewhere you can put your email into to have it resent.

Well, there has unfortunately been some bad news on the Bloodstained front.

The game is now delayed to 2019. This is based on feedback from the latest demo, so hopefully the tweaks will be worth the waiting.

The Vita version is also not coming out. This is because Sony is discontinuing support of the Vita. Anyone who selected the Vita as their version will receive the chance to select a different release or a full refund.

So yeah, not great...but at the same time, it's being handled better than I expected from most Kickstarter campaigns.

Both to be expected to be fair and I have full confidence in the team, especially given how good Curse of the Moon is and how they've continued to keep fans updated.

[Ziggy]

I never mind delays. Why would I want a game that the creators feel they should have spent more time on? Also, No Man's Sky.

[Gunstar Green]

I'm happy with what little I've played of the demo already and that they're listening to feedback so I don't really have any concerns. 2018 has enough in store coming up to keep me occupied.

[Ack]

Do you guys ever feel bad when you look at forum threads about Mighty No. 9 or even Shenmue 3?

[Xeogred]

Luckily I don't like Shemnue and have had a dozen Yakuza games for that fix.

Seriously though, this delay kind of sucks but like Gunstar said, we're about to get showered with some big releases. I also kind of feel like Curse of the Moon was a hugely awesome meal that helps the wait, for me personally. That thing came out of nowhere and is legit one of the best indie releases by miles in my book, to the extent I wouldn't even be surprised if some prefer it over Ritual... who knows.

I'm still not worried at all. If they need more time that's fine.
