[360] Castlevania: Harmony of Despair

The horridness is justified.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

This title will come out on PSN if the 360 one sells well.

You can't just jump through levels in your first run of the game; you gotta earn some dough to get decent gear since it gets harder, especially if you're playing alone (which you shouldn't do). Also time DOES become a nuisance on the later levels (which is six in the ENTIRE game).

There's nowhere I can't reach.

The mach punch is what I also use against puppet master on hard when he conjures a doll.

How ya doing, buddy?

All achievements acquired. Just farming rares now.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Luck doesn't increase the chance of better chest loot; it is for enemy drops.

6 farm to get winged boots, drac tunic, claimh solais and valmanways. 2 for thief ring, 3 for chaos ring, 5 has death scythe and robe as well as purples can drop yatsusunas. Everything else is up for grabs I suppose.

Oh, nebula drops on 4 hard, Satan ring on 6 normal.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Dunno. Gamefaqs is still tackling with the issue.

But for all I know, I got yasutsunas with 5 luck on purple chests, so really, the debate rages on.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Ones that can evade Ashtarte's charm spells for all I know are Soma and Alucard. Definitely a challenge using dual Valmanways against Ashtarte who is only vulnerable against light-based spells. Yatsusunas are even worse; not even going to bother.

Delta Spark is alright, I suppose. Playing female definitely helps but I like a bit of a challenge. All those 1-damage for 2 then using the witch spell for Soma will take more than 10 minutes but hell, it is satisfying.

FELIPE NO

Jonathan is way too risky unless the timing is real great. Soma can avoid the hearts by using the Medusa Head soul and jumping above her head when you hear the cue she is about to cast it. With Alucard, just mist.

All punch weapons are effective against her, so with Soma, it's usually the Kaiser Knuckles; Alucard with the Fist of Tulkas. Charlotte can just abuse the Energy Light spell while Shanoa can use her stone fists and her usual spells. Jonathan could use his blunt subweapons (guessing his ball and chain usually).

But the drop rates are the same, so chances of high replayability is off the window.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?
