BCB 15 E3 2017 News and Demo

Bloodless can mean multiple things though. Doesnt need to be taken literally.

Could be she is bloodless as in not having human feelings.

Or maybe cause she is a creature of the night, she could be 'lifeless', lacking vitality.

Also, is that blood actually her own? Could be like Blackmore in OoE, where it takes his victims shadow. Maybe she is lacking blood herself and has taken the blood of her victims.

Oh, sorry, it seems to be in the discussion forum instead. Might need to move it:

Hey, so I wanted to do a croc-esque thoughts post on the BCB. I listened to the episode several days ago, but just now getting around to this. I was impressed by Miketendo's insight here. He knew his stuff!

I really doubt Miriam is going to be a "silent protagonist" type, just from having seen the stack of voice-over lines the character needed to record. I would venture a guess that she'll be talking at least as much as say, Soma, but probably more.

Regarding the amount of familiars being too much, the shards being too frequent, weapons being quantity over quality as well, etc: it's important to note again that the rate that these things appear was increased a lot for the E3 gameplay. In that section we watched, I imagine you'd more likely get maybe 20% of what we saw. It seemed "too much too fast" only because they wanted to showcase so many different categories of things in a tight space.

I don't think there's a separate "kick" button while you have a weapon equipped. You -can- however do the double jump divekick regardless of whatever weapon you have at the time. All of the Igavania games have been like this, but now though, the divekick gets a huge damage buff if you're using a kick weapon. Miriam + Kung-fu shoes pogo'ing on Bloodless' head is pretty effective, lol.

The breakable wall that leads to a long hallway that miketendo was describing sounds exactly like the part of Olrox's quarters where that happens. Probably exactly what he was thinking of.

Speaking of what he was thinking of, that weapon he was trying to remember is called the Were Bane, and happens to be one of my and JeffCross ' favorites. It has a zig-zag pinkish/purple pattern to its special attack while the standard rapier's is a barrage of (weaker) green thrusts. The Were Bane drops from the Hunting Girl (temple and coliseum levels).

I too wish the whip was more like the horizontal freeze frame attack that the Belmonts had. However, like the deader Mike pointed out, there could be another weapon that does that (doubtful though) or I'm thinking perhaps a different character. Johannes has a whip, you know...

I agree about all that re: the industry and how things are going.

Wow, purifyweirdshard I can't believe you remembered I liked the Were Bane.. I said that awhile ago lol.

Anyways does anyone know if there is a thread dedicated to Miriam's double jump? I don't want to start a thread if there is one out there.

thanks, I knew there was a thread out there somewhere lol. And yeah I love that idea of crafting weapons in the game.. just wonder how it will be implemented... was trying to get a thread started about it... but it was pointless, not many people got into it (I think... I don't remember anymore lol)

Great news!
Now the whole world can hear Mike say   BAZONGAS

When will the Alpha be released?

The tweet specifically just says "we're recording Miriam's Japanese voice today! It's going to be a long day..." with a picture of a big stack of paper. It's the only way to take it, imo lol.
