Let's talk about Castlevania on Nintendo 64 - Erin Plays

[@ErinPlays]

Hey everyone! Just FYI, I did end up finishing the game last night on stream so I will probably make a part 2 talking about that. It was . . . quite the experience to say the least! Anyway, enjoy and thank you so much for continuing to watch my videos :)

Nice! Once that stream is uploaded I will tell you what I needed to tell you.... Assuming you got the Bad ending..... Trust me Erin if you did your gonna feel TERRIBLE

I love this game. How old I feel, Castlevania is the saga that I have always played, the one that made me buy consoles just for playing the only game that came out for that console. I have all the games, NES, GBA, Advance, Super NES, SEGA, 64, PS, 3DS, Japan Exclusive, Saturn etc etc. Castlevania 64 was one of those that I played over and over again since for the first time you could tour the castle in all its spaces and be able to look everywhere in 3D. The story is very good for introducing parallel characters to the Belmont clan. Besides the classics and of course Symphony OTN, 64 is one of those I played many times and finished many times (without exaggeration, I repeat it is my favorite game saga). That grand finale with an awesome version of Dracula! Any Castlevania I played, always with every possible character in the game and their alternate final 100% versions and hard modes. This is one of them where you will find different endings and hidden things depending on the time. I am glad that young people can talk about this great game, as curiously I realized that most of those who hate this game did not finish it. I like the music a lot, it is a little more sinister and different from the others. Here is an important point because those who hate this game for saying that it is not like the NESo SNES (my favorites of course) do not really understand that the saga is very big and grew in character history as they have no idea. You just have to play the Advance and GB DS ones to see how it has grown and changed in music art and styles. I really love this saga and C64 is one that I keep special memories, I would tell you that the camera issue you adapt in the first hour of play, it is something that many criticize and it really is not that complex. Legacy of Darkness is a great game too but it really feels like patches, more characters and more endings are included. I hope you really finish them and convince yourself that they are great games away from those who only criticize them and have not even played them in full. Greetings I hope you can talk more about Castlevania.

FUN FACT ABOUT THE SKELETON BOSS - when he jumps off the cliff after your first encounter, if you go to the edge of the cliff and look down at him, he'll pause and look back up at you before leaving.

Loved this as a kid, the games full of little details like this

[@mikematei]

I wrote the AVGN video on this particular game. I gave up on the Nitro part. I never knew about going up into the attic and that you had to take the symbol off the wall. I guess its nice to finally have some closure on that. I’m sure people left us comments years ago how to get through it. But seeing it explained in video form is really what I needed to understand it. Thank god for your chat right? I feel the same way sometimes on stream when I get hopelessly stuck. Its nice to have the chat there as back up. Overall, watching you play through this game again, I still feel like I dont really like this one that much. Id rather play the NES games, Chronicles or Rondo any day of the week. That said, I do think this game is really interesting because its so absolutely bizarre. Oh and I saw footage one time that showed a grim reaper. I’m assuming thats on a Reinhardt run of the game?

[@SharonisCarin321]

Yes. Carrie focuses on Actrise who is insisting on Carrie give her soul to Dracula. But Carrie is unaware of the meaning Reinhardt is trying to redeem his Belmont name since Richter Belmont disgraces their name after bring possessed by Shaft in Symphony of the Night. Death still hates the Belmont lineage

[@evanfortunato2382]

First thing I thought of when that section came up was the nerd video. I have also wondered for years how to get past that part, I'm glad the closure came

[@ErinPlays]

Yeah, it's definitely not one of my favorites. But I just HAD to try it. And yeah I guess Reinhardt has a few different sections.

[@mrgonk871]

Castlevania 64 and legacy of darkness are two of my all time favourite castlevania games. I think it’s because when castlevania 64 came out it was something new and for the first time in 3D. It felt like a castlevania game. Have finished both many times over the years and still play them at least once a year. I’ve probably played nearly every castlevania game ever made, even the abysmal one I had on Amiga way back in the early 90s which was the first one I ever played.

I was one of the one people I knew that really liked this game when it came out. I knew it wasn't really like a true Castlevania game (as i was constantly reminded), but I still enjoyed it. Funny, I was just thinking a few hours ago about playing it again (does the algorithm access thoughts now too?) which brought back the memory of being the only one who actually liked this game back when it came out. How refreshing it is to see someone else likes this game as well.

[@richm4100]

Finished this the other day, really enjoyed it (I used the whip guy), other than the maze section and the duel area, camera is fine if you grew up playing N64 games, you just have to adapt I guess. Great boss fights and soundtrack too!

The chainsaw man is the Frankenstein Monster and also, had to google when the chainsaw was invented. It was invented around 1783-1785 as a medical tool, but the one you cut trees with didn't happen until around 1905-1918. So just with the motorcycle, wrong year, but it's just for fun ;) =P

I was an 8 and 16 bit player and I feel lucky for that, but since I live in Spain, I missed more than half of what was out back then... it's time to recapture everything, there's so much to appreciate from the best generation of gaming, absolutely full of creativity, which is what Japan was coming from after their miraculous time post WWII.

Well, with Carrie, fighting enemies is more easy but the platforming in her extra levels is much harder like you already know. The Reinhardt extra levels on the other hand are a bit mazey and confusing but easier to navigate. His whip does have a shorter range but the autoaim also work on it so you don't have to aim.

You definitely need to do a full play through of Castlevania Legacy of Darkness. For example Tower of Sorcery is much more enjoyable to play compared to the same terrible level of CV64. Many Castlevania 64 levels were redone/remake in Legacy of Darkness to improve them. I am currently replaying Legacy of Darkness (and many other N64 games) in a 33' CRT Sony Wega through S video, and the game looks gorgeous despite is a N64 game. Greetings from Mexico.

[@BenRai2k]

I actually really liked castlevania 64, i prefer it over Lords of Shadow. The castle center music is really amazing and emotional sounding, Also, he tower of science music that you used in this video around 10.20 is also real good.

[@HeathenDance]

I stopped at the crystal platforms section, which is actually after the last level she showed up here. It's a fair review, for sure, but so far, I'm loving the came. It can be frustrating for the reasons she mentioned, but when you accomplish something - except the boring repetitive killings - it's a great feeling. And the game is very beautiful. But it's not for everyone. I think Castlevania Symphony of the Night, from the same era, gets praised too much because it's 2d, and easier to get into. It's just playing safe. Literally, also ahah.

The other thing you can't do when carrying the Nitra is start a new game. There is a bug that doesn't reset that trigger so you just explode in the first level. You can fix this be starting a new game again. They didn't fix this for Legacy of Darkness either.

I remember renting this as a kid and having no clue what to really expect. That was part of the run back then.

I didn’t beat this one either or was too hard and unintuitive for me at the time but I did like it. I remember the giant skeleton really well, that was bad ass to me back then.

[@PikangsFutaba]

2:01 ... the only games that comes in my mind about warning the player are Marvel Super Heroes (the game warns you in Auto mode that the game ends after the 3rd match if you pick said option), Gradius 3 arcade version (playable on Ps2 and PSP) if you pick the easy ("training" mode), the game warns you (before you decide to pick the option) that once you beat the stage 3 boss is game over, the GBA port of Contra 3: The Alien Wars (the game ends after you beat Stage 4 on Easy without warning), NES Double Dragon 2 the game stops after stage 3 on easy, after the actual final stage on normal BEFORE you can fight the Shadow Warrior in his "stage" and also Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story movie adaptation... the game will only allow you to play the full game on default settings or higher difficulty, anything lower than that the game stops depending on how low is the difficulty. 6:21 ... Rosa appears again... with Reinhardt only (who also is a boss instead of the unnamed Fernandez Warrior in Castle Center). Yeah, the camera issues is were Legacy of Darkness outshines the vanilla game (not perfect but way much better overall), because you can ACTUALLY say *censored* you to the fixed camera in the places the game activates them and keep the normal camera (of course, boss fights excluded) which helps a lot in the actual stages.

[@viciousthrill7103]

Never played the castlevania on n64 but the reason for me was since it wasn’t the traditional side scrolling so it really didn’t get my attention but after seeing this video it looks somewhat intriguing i bet this game would be awesome if it got the remastered treatment like how the doom 64 and turok 64 games got and those games turned out great 👍 😊

[@ErinPlays]

looks interesting!

[@Caderynwolf]

@@ErinPlays Oh yay, attention! Ok, Shaolin was another favourite as a fighting game it was fairly generic with the mechanics itself (nothing wrong with them), what made it unique was that it was I think the 1st game that incorporated a full RP expereince in that your character ages and their weight/look changes according to how much you eat or don't eat, you could chose male or female character, depending on how you do in fights your stats improve accordingly along with your fighting style, and there were 8 fighting styles (they all required different play styles) each kung-fu style having it's own (minimal but fun) storyline and depending if you were male or female gave 2 different storylines within each fighting style... it also allowed upto I think 16 (might have been more) players to fight in an arena. However, because it was basically at the limits of what the original playstation could do (the graphics were fantastic for the time as well) there are loading screens...a lot of loading screens... many, many loading screens...long loading screens... you had to be very patient to play this game, but it was still a good game... just so many long loading screens XD

Oh cool, you put the whole gameplay video on another channel. I'm down to fallow, I saw you play on twitch, happy to see you edit it down, IT'S SUCH A WEIRD GAME! No wonder why I went to Symphony instead.

Motorcycles?! Dracula just has the largest library in Europe and really good scientists! 😉

The dodge jumps (side dodge/rear dodge) and the camera angles are definitely a disaster in this game... If they had worked these points better the game would be awesome. I'm an indie game developer, and I admire the ideas of Castlevania2 and 64 Your videos are very good!!!

Loved this video! Castlevania N64 is my least favorite. It was just too difficult for me. Castlevania 4 for the SNES is my favorite! Thank you from West Virginia!👍❤️

Back when I was going to upgrade from the SNES I had my heart set on the N64 since I was a nintendo fanboy but after playing the Mario game I decided to get a Playstation instead. And looking at the Castlevania games the N64 got after getting Symphony of the Night I knew I made the right choice.

This one was the only Castlevania game on 64

@@rayjohnson2387 No, the other is Legacy of Darkness.

@@GermanyinD- Castlevania 64...and Legacy of Darkness are the same game...Legacy of Darkness just has an extra level at the beginning...once u have that boss fight on the pier and climb up the side of the cliff...it's almost exactly the same...there are very few...and very slight differences
