I've never had TOO much of a problem getting lost. I always just tried to fill up as much space on the map as humanly possible. The problem arose when I had to BACKTRACK to an area to use an ability or item that I got that would allow me to progress, but being unable to remember what the area was.

I picked up one Ds Castlevania game, and the first monsters I encountered took 40+ hits to kill. I've never tried another Castlevania game ever.

Bought the full version. God damn, this bitch is hard. Fun though, and the pixel art is GORGEOUS.

Symphony of the Night is a pretty good game but has a whole bunch of weird design choices compared to every game after that, and the difficulty curves up and down like a motherfucker for absolutely no reason, and a lot of the bosses are really easy (with one notable exception) while regular enemies will have you pulling your hair out at how badly they're designed (the minotaur. fuck the minotaur.)
SoTN also uses a spell system that has you doing overly elaborate button combos, but the game doesn't tell you that you know all these spells from the start and then it asks you to pay to learn them. It's kinda lame. (the DS castlevanias are objectively better in every way, also)

Not the enemies so much as that first Pterodactyl-Gargoyle tagteam first boss fight. Everything else has been pretty easy to get through. |
