I was thinking about SotN on Saturn. They tried to extend the game by adding two more areas if I recall correctly. Seems like it wasn't done well.
With the complaints about how the map isn't big enough, maybe this wouldn't be a bad idea, provided they don't overcharge for it. With how the game ended, it's clear a lot of demon clean was still left in the story line. I'm sure they can find some part of the main overall plot to extend upon. Perhaps a particular demon went back to Zangetsu's hometown, and now he's asked Miriam to help him purge the of evil (assuming he didn't die prior to the battle with Gremory)?
Or perhaps some member of the guild was still out there that was missed, and now he's run amok causing trouble?
Just some thoughts on it.

castle expansion such as new areas, demons, shards, weapons and bosses are an absolute yes. it could also be another method to reward 60+ backers with free DLC.
however, main story expansion and plot related stuff are an absolute NO.
leave that for a sequel or a prequel.
Thats the kind of stuff that many people seem to take in a very wrong way:
"boo-ho. this game ending was so bad that they had to patch it with DLC content" "you have to pay more for the complete story?¨ "why is this DLC? This should have been in the main game to begin with" it kind of makes developers look lazy and Publishers look greedy.
Now, if the expansion was something that had nothing to do with the main events of the game then that would be welcome.
things such as a completely new character that was never mentioned in the main plot, or a sudden "hey Miriam, you might like to investigate this place" *finds new area with new superboss*
thats the kind of stuff that i would like to pay for.

Yeah. I'd pay good money for some more areas. The game needs it. This might be the first metroidvania I've played that's devoid of optional or side areas.

As long as the areas are connected to the main map naturally, so it's extending the castle, then sure! I would love to start a new game and not know where I could run into entirely new areas!

I was also thinking maybe there's a part of Arvantville that got missed by the heroes, and a villager runs back to the main headquarters to let Johanes know they need a lot of help.

I think I'd want to see how the Roguelite mode will effect Random Castle Generation when that gets released. Especially if you have the option to have it generate the castle larger than it was compared to the main game's Castle. That could keep many people satisfied I feel with having a larger castle. Overall the Castle did feel a bit small, With half of the Castle also consisting of Underground areas with the Fire and Desert areas feeling kinda awkwardly placed. If they didn't feel out of the way of the main castle and blended in better with the overall castle, it may've felt different.
The Ice, Fire, and Desert areas in particular also felt too small. I definitely wouldn't be opposed to seeing the Castle Expanded, I would like to see it as part of the upcoming free DLC somehow. I don't think the story needs to be changed. I could see more in between areas working or, having the already existing areas be expanded to have more enemies & items. Maybe another boss or 2 as well. I'm not keen on paid DLC in general so had this been Day 1 Paid DLC it would've seemed bad. If many months from now when the rest of the backer stretch goals are added, It would be fun to see something like this, even if it is paid DLC. Naturally it would be best if it could be kept free. If they do keep it free and then start developing for a sequel, I will feel much better about spending the $40 on the sequel, as I definitely would love to see more in this series! |
