The second playable character I do believe will be Johannes. I think they've all but stated the fact up until now.
I don't think Johannes will be very Belmont-ish. Miriam after all is also getting a whip. I think Johannes' gameplay will focus much more on his Alchemy, using various monsters parts in order to deal magical attacks.
As for the THIRD playable character, I think that will be Gebel. It's told that a second pixel game is on the funding event horizon to be included, and I think Gebel will be the main attraction in that, as well as playable in the full game, but without cutscenes.

Gog Galaxy at gog.com is going to offer us Bloodstained without any DRM. It would be a PC version, as an option besides Steam. I don't really know what all DRM entails, but my old understanding of it was that it involved methods that block things like copying the game onto another computer and such. I imagine if you want to know more about it you can go to their website, here. The next stretch goal was also introduced - Orchestrated tracks It's pointed out that some of the compositions by Yamada and Yamane will be recorded by an actual live professional orchestra, and they're both excited for that. Other than that, some new artwork was shown off, and some small (subject to change) details about Miriam's curse were revealed. We unlocked the Gloves of Jesting social achievement reward, which gives us silly cheat codes. Bloodstained backers will likely have a large say in what we see in this.

Glass Cannon - Attack Power is multiplied and enemies hit are afflicted with a bleeding status ailment, however one hit from any source of damage not including poison, will kill you. Alien Ending - I liked these in Silent Hill. You had to do something completely off the wall to get these endings and often times they would include characters and scenarios that happened in past Silent Hill games. I just want something completely silly that resolves the story in a completely ridiculous way (i.e. aliens, little gray men, did it).

It seems a lot of people like the fairy looking one for whatever reason. I think the knight is cool, but don't think it tops the reaper.

I barely even know what that means. You can take the pic if you want. I'd love to see some fanart with Miriam holding a coca cola (or Diet Dr. Pepper... since that's what I drink)

Various special attack design concepts were shown. A few of them are strange or comedic even. Gluttony - Summons spirits to devour anything in it's path Magic Throne - Conjures a chair that rejuvenates your MP. Voltic Chain - Conjures chains that electrify any enemies they hit. It's noted this is not a demonic ability. Winestained - Throws a wine glass..... powers up certain abilities. This next part is a little more important. We are to vote on which familiar we like the best out of this group of 4: All you need to do is to go to this link: | -Link- |and vote for what you think is best. There are no names yet, or mechanics behind them. This is pretty much a blind vote based solely on appearance, or I guess what you think it'll probably do. I myself went with the reaper familiar. I in general just like reapers. I like the concept of reaping souls, and gathering life force. I feel like it's vampiric in nature, or should I say vampires are more like reapers?

There are already easter eggs for bloodstained! Someone took looking at that shadow to the next step and got quite the find: And no, the person didn't type that into the image. I actually took it upon myself to verify and it's definitely there. For reference...

Honestly they're probably working hard right now just to make plans for new goals, lol.
Koji wasn't even sure we'd even make $500k, let alone $3m. I think I remember reading they had plans until so far into it, then they had to really start brainstorming because they needed more goals. That is also why I'm a bit worried we won't even see an online co-op goal, but ultimately that might be for the best. A solid experience meant to satisfy the needs of the person in front of the TV is really exciting.

This doesn't look like a great game for me, personally. However, I did notice the similarities to Custom Robo in some aspects, and that's pretty interesting. I'm glad to see any amount of Custom Robo anywhere (I really want a new console release...)

The Wii U goal was reached, and now the next two stretch goals have been revealed.
$3m - Wii U port - Reached! Armature Studios will transition the game onto the Wii U. They have extensive "porting" experience, so odds are they'll be a reliable company. Physical discs will be available, and anyone who paid into the physical copy tier will have the option to choose Wii U with no further action. They plan on supporting many facets of the Wii U, such as unique gamepad functionality, off screen play, the pro controller, your Mii, and Miiverse.
$3.25m - Asynchronous Online Multiplayer Not quite as exciting as it sounds, it doesn't mean online co-op. It means that your own game data can affect another persons game data. This could mean borrowing a friends character, or seeing a ghost data playthrough of some sort, and so on.
$3.5m - Playstation Vita port Armature Studios, who are doing the Wii U port, will also do the Vita port. Both feature touch screens, and they speculate that instead of hindering either port, it'll enhance the values of both by using unique touch screen features.
$3.75m - Hidden All we can see is an odd shape. I don't know if anyone has noticed it or not, but it's actually the top of the treble clef symbol, the beginning symbol that you see on any sheet of music. (I looked in the comments briefly and someone did notice it!) So... whatever it is, it has to do with music. Perhaps people will be able to edit the sounds of the game? Maybe it's the introduction of a new composer?
I think Online Co-Op is still not an impossibility. Hopefully we can reach further stretch goals, and see what lies beyond.

On that note, I found out about the kickstarter 3 days in from GameXplain's youtube channel, and was really just trying to browse it for Splatoon videos and other stuff, and saw them talking about Castlevania or something and was intrigued.

I don't think he was trolling, he just really believed in his view, which just happened to be wrong. There are all sorts of people in the world, and most of them are genuine. You don't have to like them, but it isn't so black and white as you think. That said, the guy was completely wrong on just about everything he was saying, so some information awareness would be great.

I do use that site every now and then, it's pretty useful. Most of the VA's I'm interested in are in anime, which I use myanimelist for, but when it comes to video games there's a stronger lack of information.
This is partly due to voice actors not being required to be listed in the credits of video games. Due to this there are some mystery actors, and certain contracts that are made requiring the identity of said actors to remain unknown. One extreme example is the voice of Naoto Shirogane in Persona 4. There are multiple speculations of who voices her, but no one knows for sure. We've even been told by the localization team that the VA appreciates everyone's support, but her identity still must remain anonymous, it's crazy. This is also why in the anime she has a different voice, because her name would be required to be listed.

Update #12 May 29, 2015Robbie Belgrade has been announced to take part in voicing a character in Bloodstained! Robbie Belgrade plays the voice of Alucard in Symphony of the Night. The old Alucard, and not from the new dub (from what I've listened to, the newer dub is Yuri Lowenthall, but I can't say that for sure). As such, there's a new $1,000 reward tier for him to record a message (up to 10). Exciting news for me, I loved Alucard's voice a whole lot. They've also announced that dual audio will be present! So if for some reason you can't handle his amazing voice, you can listen to it in Japanese!

The project looks pretty cool... but I don't think I want an MMO version, unfortunately. However, Miriam looks amazing.

I love Gundam a lot, just in general. I've debated countless times on Amazon thinking "should I get that model or not...", in the end my wallet has remained in tact, but it's always been a struggle. I'm not a hipster, but a few of my favorites are some old ones. I would say a couple of my core favorites are Battle Programmer Shirase and Kamisama Kazoku (God Family). Both are rather short, and BPS leaves on a cliffhanger and never got a continuation, but that also may be why I like them so much, because I was left still wanting more. Some current favorites are Ore Monogatari, Baby Steps, World Trigger, and DanMachi.
I don't read a lot of manga, but I get hooked when I start one. My all time favorite at the moment is Liar Game. I hope it gets an adaptation someday.
