Comment on I just finished Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia
popcar2@programming.dev 2 days agoAgreed. I’m starting Dawn of Sorrow now and man, that game suffers from the most generic early-mid 2000’s anime art style. The portraits are very uninspired, and I think Soma Cruz maybe has the most boring main character design in the franchise. He’s the generic anime pretty boy with a cool coat.
The game’s still very fun though, but I just can’t take the character portraits seriously.

My thoughts exactly. I’ll never understand. I also felt that the overall environment wasn’t very dark and mysterious, it seemed to follow the art style in the that same generic direction. And of course DS touch screen gimmicks and poor pattern recognition are painful during big battles.
