Wow, seems people REALLY don't like having the backer portraits in game, too....I'm glad that's an option available to people, but a lot of them are straight trashing allowing something like that to be in the game, just to cater to people.

Also pretty partial to Insatiable, solely due to the wine glass/holy water effect......too bad we can't use that while sitting, for full effect. "What is a Shardbinder?"
Edit: I know it's not a directional, but still.

Yeah, seems the only thing in the Celeste Room are ghosts that materialize. Music boxes don't seem to make a difference and no order or mix of melodies seems to cause anything special to happen. Pretty music, though.

Thanks, I'll have to look into it. I tried modding back in the Morrowind days and only ever came up with a couple weapons, but never went further than concepts, mostly.

If I knew how to mod, I would. After having seen the bikini Miriam concept, wouldn't mind seeing how a Succubus themed costume would look, for her. Mature and SFW versions would both work. (since succubi in past vanias have been topless, but is not necessary.)

Doesn't matter, still spoiled and further spoiled something for another player. That in itself was not right and things of that nature have had spoiler tags or the whispering smiley used to insert said spoilers, for a reason. Arikado Had wanted to be surprised and now no longer can be, which actually can ruin an experience for someone, at times. Besides, if something is labeled as 'Secret Boss', it usually speaks for itself as to what it is.....a secret to be found, not told. Edit: Also, just because it's a spoiler thread, doesn't mean we haven't all been using spoiler tags in our discussions. Some people truly wish to avoid those as much as possible. I never said O.D. is an optional boss Until he somehow come up with that Idea (which requires further digging out of the post), and you can complete the map under 99% and O.D. will never ask you to return the books until game ends and the castle vanishes, and it is too late.
So either way canonically Miriam may very well be in possession of at least one overdue book from O.D. Any way sorry about the Spoilers.
Onto the next post. When Alfred demonstrate both slow time and teleportation, are they both Enochian Script, whose main purpose is dimensional manipulation to summon spirits? Also How did Zangetsu sealed its usage? I cannot see the text on his tailsman clearly, but his style seems a bit Buhhist. Edit: Nehan Jakujoh is specifically a Buddhist chant, and the tailsman writting is visibly Pali. However, neither have specific usage against teleportation. The flame pillars he used has four Chinese letters essentially meaning reality is falsehood and pretty colours is in the end merely an illusion.
Point is, whether you said Totally Not Alucard was optional or not you still spoiled something fairly big for another and shrugged it off with an 'oh well' attitude. Not going to argue this crap out, not worth it. I pointed out a fact, Arikado apparently agreed with the sentiment. No need to become a

I accepted the quest from the moment they became available and still was able to fight him, after fighting Gebel. It has to be a bug.

All you Zangetsu theorycrafters and brainstormers out there. Listen up! Finished the game? Good.. Spoilers: Bloodstained 2 need familiar faces. Having Johannes, Miriam and Zangetsu return is good. Of course Zangetsu survived, you are probably meeting him in the second IP or saving him! Either way. If you do not see a death, they aren't dead.
Dominique however, no clue what happened to her, didn't see her die either. Or did I? It's only assumed that Dominique dies, since she fused with Bael at the end. I don't think she's one to give up that easily. Though I have to wonder if she would be able to return, given what Fryda Wolff went through with the breast cancer, iirc, she had lost both and I'm sure that had to of taken a toll on her. Unless things ended up for the better, haven't seen or heard news in regards to that situation since last year.
But, her and Zangetsu should definitely be around for a future installment. Snakegetsu simply because he's too badass to be taken out by some little hands grabbing on him.

I still would enjoy, even if only told in Bloodstained's universe, finally getting to the bottom of the war of 1999. I mean, we need closure, lol. Plus, isn't it fitting that avenging Julius is IGA's quest? But yeah, the whole Dominique reveal did slightly sour things, as it was a bit of a basic way to go about a twist, but I still enjoy the character, personally. It's the final battle that kinda got my meh factor up, since it's literally the same effing fight as the true end of Aria/Dawn and was truly anti climatic. That said, this game was done on what could be considered a small budget for a game of this scope. I'm pretty sure, since sales are so positive along with the reviews, that a sequel may fix a lot of issues as they'll have a firmer grasp of the engine (unless they decide to build their own game engine) and they would be able to further cement how this new universe's story and characters work. My question would be, do we follow Miriam's adventures more? Is her story over and we get something different? Will Cartman find out who his father is? Find out on the next episode of Dragonball Z!

As for Zangetsu being caught by Gremory, here's some fun. Maybe he did live from that, but since she's able to be in multiple dimensions at once, this was how he gained the Curse of the Moon. Gremory kept Gebel from his feelings for Miriam, outright takes over Miriam in one of the endings and is seemingly this all powerful demon. Why couldn't she transport Zangetsu into an alternate version of events and have him forget everything that had happened? I am aware it's only a spin-off game and doesn't truly tie into things, but tell me that couldn't work to link the two.
Also wanted to note that, funnily enough, including the bad ending on RotN, all of your characters from CotM are the ones that ultimately meet their fates in RotN. Just some thoughts.

I know everyone is all on the SotN vibes and everything and I can agree with that, but.....I noticed more than a bit that seemed to tie into OoE, as well. At least, in regards to the Alchemists and some of those journal entries......almost like Shanoa was one of the original Shardbinders, before they were able to fully understand that crystalized souls/glyphs were able to produce far more powerful effects, with the drawback being higher corruption rates. I know they can't be tied together and only referenced, due to series and such, but thought it was a rather interesting thing to note.

Did discover the Jinrai move to be the one we used in beta to break boundaries, but have been unable to get it to do what it did then. Still a good move and useful, but it doesn't seem to have the breaking qualities it once had. dareka Good catch on the Bloodbringer. Did think it was a nice little touch to limit it to weapon use/familiar use, along with the weapon gaining power as the familiar grows stronger. Gives me ideas for how they could implement a 'living weapon' or something along those lines.

I got tired of trying to look for a map for some of the stuff I couldnt find. So on my current play through has me making this map:
Every color you see there has some meaning. Still not happy with the colors, but so much information to pass on. That does work, though. It'll come in handy for those that have a harder time of things than most.

Seems to be plenty of out of bounds-ish secrets to find. Luckily, I had found that hairstyle a couple days ago. Currently trying to get that stupid mutt Gieremund to drop its one ? item, but 200 little snausages later, only heavily stocked on skins and fangs, lol.
