Aria of Sorrow all souls demonstration

[@Jose_Fino]

Konami just released Aria of Sorrow on Steam,together with the other GBA Castlevanias. So if this video got you interested in playing it,its now officially on PC

Dammit no more excuses for emulating, grabbing it as soon as I can.

[@abraham3673]

@@samidekash “increasing framerate” does not sound like a benefit. seems unnecessary for a 60fps gba title. and emulation never plays smoother than native hardware. in that case, the objectively “smoothest” way to play aria of sorrow is on any gba model, any ds model, and any 3ds model.

I love how a lot of bullet souls are based on attack patterns of classic sub weapons.

[@CB-L]

Kinda interesting that Axe Armor soul was more like a copy of enemy move in Aria, which became more like the classic sub weapon in Dawn instead

[@DakarJroficial]

Not only that, but references to other things, as characters or weapons as well, as the blue crow attack resembles maria's basic attack or the ghost soul, that attacks similar to alucard's spirits spell

My favorite souls have always been Valkyrie and Manticore. Add in Succubus and Chaos Ring and I'll be good for life.

[@raylentcross8203]

Valkyrie has a strong holy damage, commonly enemies here are dark attributes. Even Demon Lord and Shadow Knight with holy weakness can kill it.

[@alezzz4995]

With the chaos ring i like: Red minotaur, black panther, and lubicant. I think those are the most broken ones

[@penismightier9278]

Ditto with the poison and curse element souls.

[@hydrosphagus9672]

Also, I believe there is a small easter egg with Balore (27:55): Against enemies with high enough HP to survive one hit from Balore, Soma will say something else on the finishing punch. Normally he said something like "Kono ichigi ke" or something (my Japanese sucks XD), but on that finishing blow he'll say "Todome da".

[@theoneitself]

[@JanusHoW]

The sad thing is that the overwhelming majority of Bullet Souls either quickly become outclassed (or how Zombie already outclasses Poison Worm) or just don't deal good damage for their MP cost, especially once you get the Claimh Solais. Valkyrie, Lightning Doll, Nightmare, Killer Mantle (on certain enemies) and MAYBE Mandragora are the only worthwhile Bullet Souls until you get the Chaos Ring, and once you get that item, all that's left to spam Red Minotaur on is the true final boss. Dawn of Sorrow did a much better job balancing them, although in that game Mandragora was insanely good. The Guardian Souls, however, seem to make up for this. Creaking Skull, Giant Ghost, Final Guard, the "breath" souls...all look to be extremely useful. Giant Ghost is plainly superior to Witch, of course. Medusa Head is also really good for Balore's second phase. I didn't know about a lot of the smaller details, like Siren dealing extra damage to foes weak to Curse, or the effect of pairing Imp with Waiter Skeleton.
