It's a fact that this man is Leon Belmont; trying to deny it or go against the grain is just silly at this point. But it looks like it's going to be a decent implement.

I was reviewing old and more recent gameplay videos that I hadn't watched yet. And they're really structured in a way that draws your attention to this guy (when he appears).

At first glance, it seems like it's going to be a "former hero returns and is now evil" story, but there appear to be some nuances. Facing him will be the game's first objective because he's the one who gives us access to one of the central mechanics: the whip.

At first, he's just an angry monster hunting for souls, but after he's defeated and exchanges a few words with Rose, he calms down. There are two key things that reassure him:

• 1. The fact that Dracula was defeated.
• 2. The fact that Rose is a Belmont.

As for why he's in this state? It's not entirely clear. But he asks Rose something very interesting: "I sense a dark power within you. Are you a vampire or some sort of monster like me?". This leaves open the possibility that he, like Rose, was cursed, lending even more significance to the game's title itself.

Overall, it seems like the game will feature him as a sort of sidekick. Later on, when they arrive at Medusa's lair, he has another line of dialogue where he gives his opinion on the place and warns Rose about the danger. So they're going to have some kind of dynamic along the lines of: "Ew, don't talk to me, monster", "heh... Belmont".

I hope the game provides a satisfactory explanation for this.

"Do Metroids eat people?"

"Sometimes"

"Then whoever eats Kraid explodes"

"Why is there meat in a place like this...?"

"A delicious discovery might be waiting for you in an unexpected place."

"A weapon that requires skill to handle."

"Hitting with the tip inflicts greater damage."

It seems that the weapon will use the same mechanics it has in Super Smash Bros Ultimate.

This is a collection of sketches by Ayami Kojima; it appears to include illustrations from her early work on this franchise (four games). Not only are there sketches of other characters, but also what appear to be early design concepts for characters such as Soma, Simon, and Julius.

I don't really have anything else to say; it is what it is.

Normally, this armor can only be obtained by using the bat form or the super jump, but by the time you have those abilities, the defense it provides is completely useless.

If I come back here later with the double jump and the jump kick, could I use one of the axes thrown by the Axe Armor past the ladder to catapult myself?

Or is this thing just here so you can sell it to Hammer, and that's it?

Trevor's outfit description says: The clothes of the most revengeful of all Belmonts. Don't call him Trevy or he could hate you even more than he hates Dracula

Good fanfic, btw.
