      That’s exactly what I was thinking, glad I saw your comment before making pretty much the same one. Granted, I also didn’t like the 3-D but 2-D style of Bloodstained, but this is orders of magnitude worse based on that youtube vid.

      Granted, the graphics aren’t the main draw to this type of Metroidvania, so long as the gameplay is good, I’ll be happy enough. But, I have serious reservations about the thought process that went into the approval of this design. I’m not usually so opinionated, so it has to the pretty awful for me to call it as much.

        I agree with your opinion about bloodstained. I played it a bit recently, and I think that 3d/2d style is pretty horrendous.

        I think it is done to save cost as it is easier to make a game with 3d models than it is to use 2d sprites.

      I don’t dislike that art style in other games but nothing about that trailer gave me castlevania vibes
