Your words are as empty as your soul! Mankind ill needs a podcast such as you!
Welcome back to the show this week. Join us in bidding a fond, but temporary, farewell to JJ, who will be taking some time off in the coming months, by playing Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. Also, sorry for spoiling the first five minutes of the podcast. Castlevania is a groundbreaking game that helped to establish a particular genre of platform/action game and is regarded by many to be one of the most influential games of all time. With Konami having fallen under in terms of public opinion, and the most recent releases in the Castlevania series being mostly remasters and collections, Symphony stands as a perennial favorite of the older crowd of nostalgic players, but for three newcomers to the Metroidvania title, how does it feel on a first look? We’re going to talk about intermixing systems, level design in a game set primarily in one location, and we establish a new holiday: August 25th, Whipmas.
Thank you for joining us, and while JJ may be leaving us for now, we intend to keep going as we are able to pick up new guests and releasing Pockets on our usual schedule. As for what we have on the horizon, next time we release an episode it will be on Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, the original lawyerin’ game by Capcom, and will be joined by Dan, who you may remember as being last heard yelling about Bad Rats on the Obra Dinn episode.
