Simon's Quest Castlevania 2 - Rebitten [Complete Long Play] (2020)

[@jefferycorley8006]

Boss battles are such a great addition. If Konami was smart they’d have you work on an offical remake .

[@Shadowking81]

Yeah man the thing is they'll this isn't my game I only played it Ed Findley made it 👍

[@dondavid6514]

A remake worked by yoshio sakomoto would be the best He worked on zero mission which could benefit this one

[@gtshawn]

The soundtrack has always been PHENOMINAL and LEGENDARY!!

[@Shadowking81]

I agree

[@VampireKillerCrypt]

Just lacking Vampire Killer sadly 😢

[@dmpdesign]

Love everything but the vision reduction at night, cant say im a fan of that

[@equalskat]

jesus he really went nuts with dracula's castle

[@georgelanders4271]

Absolutely incredible. This looks like a brutal game

[@michaelsilverman341]

Watching this guy play, I can just hear the "F*******!" after falling into the river again and again lol! CHEERS GREAT JOB MATE

[@Shadowking81]

Hahaha thanks dude!

[@Rockstago]

Love it! It's better in everyway. The swamp jumps tho- gave me a heart attack.

[@TheBioshock596]

What I like the most about this fan-remake would be the last areas of the game, since they are the same as the first Castlevania, only now somewhat deteriorated due to the fact that the castle is now in ruins.

[@kavya1638]

are there multiple releases of rebitten? another video has dracula's face on the breakable wall before you enter his castle, this one didn't have it. also what became of Denis marsh? (the dead end marsh from the original game, it's a fork in the road before you reach castlevania. in rebitten, the top road leads to castlevania, but originally it was supposed to go to the marsh.

[@jaydub7386]

Beautiful game.

[@DamascusTest]

What is the theme of Bodley Mansion ? It's catchy as hell !

Does anyone know if the music at 2:25:36 is original or lifted from a different game?

[@Shadowking81]

Unfortunately I can't recall... maybe someone else will come along and shed some light on this. Ed Findlay would know for sure 👍

[@Rihcterwilker]

It's made by optomon for a castlevania 2 hack that never came to be. Forgot the name, but you just have to look for castlevania bloodlust on youtube.

And then?

[@ryanchin2223]

@@Shadowking81 I told her that the path up to where I rescued her is safe. After I defeated Dracula, I escaped before Dracula's Castle collapses.

2:06:30 THIS is some serious bullshit added by the author. You can't buy laurels (invincibility) from town anymore so you're expected to figure out that you have to suicide into the toxic river? I've tried to get across twice now and both times I died. You have to be sure you make it there with full health too just to try again... Fuck me!

[@evilpeti]

There is an invisible ladder there, I'll tell you that much.

[@kadewade351]

Can someone tell me the name of the song at 3:33:43?

[@Shadowking81]

Good question. Hopefully one of the other guys knows and will answer

[@_jojo_joestar_]

idk but it's from portrait of ruin

[@Shadowking81]

@qiq007 should probably tell that to @Kane Wade above as he's the one who asked for it 😂👍

[@krishnaputrayudhistira5519]

It's Gear of Madness from Portrait of Ruin

[@kainu.9005]

"The Gears go Awry" from CV:Portrait of Ruin.

[@scottharper9869]

Really wanna play this ... really bad

[@snake8bit83]

The game is wonderful. However, I don't understand what the commands are. The only keys that work are the Q and F. What are the keys for select, attack and jump? Help me, please!

[@leroyjennings5842]

I've always said this game needed boss fights and clues that actually helped you with the towns people and the dreaded slow change from day to night.Not to mention the jumping mechanics. You fixed all of those issues. Makes me not want to play the original anymore

[@Shadowking81]

I've played the original so many times in the past. I prefer this one 👍

[@digdoug1979]

They need to hire Ed to oversee the port of Rondo of blood to all platforms.

[@OptimisticCynic715]

I thought Rebitten was the 16 bit remake? I guess that's Castlevania Chronicles II

[@Chaunce-px2lj]

so this version he doesn't get the bat summoning ability?

[@DamascusTest]

Yay Gears Go Awry for Dracula fight !

3:03 That flashlight effect looks awful for gameplay?

[@ezehogan]

Although you can’t see it in this video, you can actually see the rest of the screen in the black area, which is actually transparent.

[@SignOfTheTimes008]

I think my problem was I tried to do 2:41:00 as my 3rd castle, looks like its meant to be done later.

[@Shadowking81]

I've done it in different orders on the original NES game and I didn't have a problem or a different outcome for the best ending. Maybe first this remake it might be programmed like that but I wouldn't know, seems like you are the 1st to point it out since you are currently experiencing that.

[@SignOfTheTimes008]

@@Shadowking81 At the 2:41:00 I die right around the spider area because I try to dodge it while falling off the blocks. Falling blocks are the most frustrating part cause you can't keep holy water all the time in this version.

[@michaelolsen2348]

I saw in one video of Simon fighting Simon as a boss. Is that in the completed version? I want to see that. Not sure if this version was the completed one. Still really amazing.

[@Shadowking81]

Yes, that's in this finished version, it's at the 2 hour 30min and 20 second mark or so. Hope that helps

[@RyanSumthn]

i respect the work that went into this but man this game has its own fair share of problems

[@Shadowking81]

A lot of the problems were fixed in this compared to the NES original

The original will always be the best and I got the Castlevania Anniversary Collection for both Switch and PS4 which includes it. It's not Simon's Quest without the day and night cycle and the words.

[@amerk6601]

Played it, enjoyed the first half of the game, but did not enjoy the second half, perhaps because I had come in expecting a more metroidvania styled experience. I think I would have enjoyed it more if you found the sub weapons on the map metroidvania style, and then had the ability to toggle them without ever losing them, since they all use ammo anyways, rather than always only having one sub weapon at a time and having to go around looking for a candle that drops the right one (which gets old by the time you reach the second mansion). Might have even had them as main items to find in the mansion to progress (ie., the first mansion has the holy water and needed to get through and fight the boss, and then allowing you to also use them on the fields to get to places you couldn't get to before). Also wouldn't have minded at least in the mansions if you die, having a continue that starts you at the beginning of the mansion, versus all the way back at whatever village you came from, especially since you no longer have lives. Or even a checkpoint in the mansions or fields would have helped. That said, boss fights were a very nice touch, and much better designed than CVII Revamped. In spite of only being able to hold one subweapon at a time, the subweapon blocks that prevent you from progressing in areas of the game gave it a more adventurous tone than the orignal, plenty of added features I liked, like the clock to check the day / night cycle, the fiends appearing at night on the fields coupled with the limited scope of vision making night travel more treacherous, and the final dungeon in itself... all this really added to experience. As I said, I came in expecting a more metroidvania styled experience, and felt some expectations were missed, but it still comes off as a very nice homage to the original game, and CVII has always been this weird hybrid of platforming, metroidvania, and adventure, that short of completely gutting the original experience and turning into something it never was, this at least adds elements that were sorely missed in the original NES game.

[@aguy9959]

If you play it for too long does it still affect the ending?

[@ellocojoncrazy3270]

Too bad that whoever did this started to charge for the game (that's illegal dude, lol).

[@Shadowking81]

Really I downloaded it for free from the Creator Ed Findlay

[@Shadowking81]

Should be free on his web site

[@ellocojoncrazy3270]

@@Shadowking81 Have you visited the page recently? the guy is charging 20 (It's honestly too expensive for what it is) bugs for this. And I understand that shit is illegal, he is taking profit from a license, there is a reason why fan games are free xd.

[@Shadowking81]

No, I haven't been on there. Not sure if he's charging. I got it free from his site 🤷‍♂️ maybe he's obtained a limited license for physical copies of it?

[@ellocojoncrazy3270]

Nope, the guy now charges for the game, both physical and download. It's honestly BS.

[@bakemaster]

Looks cool. I think that the addition of the whole castle at the end is out of place. Dracula wasn't resurrected so there shouldn't be a complete castle with working baddies. The rubble from the original fits the narrative better. .... And the original wall chicken isn't there🤦

[@cryonisis1]

the walk animation is so fucked up.

[@matthewpasternak8128]

The concept is nice. BUT... this isn't Castlevania II: Simon's Quest. It's a mish-mash of Castlevania and Castlevania II. The enemies are too fast, the jump animations... ugh. Simon goes through solid rock at times. Necessity to change weapons to get secrets would be cool, if you were able to carry more than one weapon at a time. And a limit on hearts? Come on. I LOVE the old school NES Castlevania games (playing them on PS4 now), but I can't get into this variation.
