Post by Pure Miriam on May 9, 2017 2:34:08 GMT -6
I really ddin't know where to post this, and i thought that creating a thread just for this silly thing could be idiot, but here goes. I had a dream today (05/09/2017) about Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. The area was something like this, i think, like the first concept and gameplay we saw, but with a more purple color and with fog. In my dream, the E3 DEMO was out for us to play. The main menu was changed to something with more redish / purpleish colors, with the menu options arranged to the left and a huge empty space at the right (a bit like it is now), where Miriam artwork would be (she was going to have a updated artwork and they didn't put there in time, if i'm not mistaken). Miriam's status was arranged at the bottom, alongside gold, time and such. The Demo was something foward in the castle, so, you started at a higher level (20's or something), within a closed area of the castle (everything closed with the same looking door that i don't remember how it looked). You started with some shards for all types (including familiar) but specially Trigger ones. I remember equipping a Trigger shard that Miriam attacked summoning a magical skull or something similar. It has something to do with skulls...And we also started with some equipments, with Miriam equipped with a gun at a start, that you could shoot and charge like Megaman's X Buster. The Castle area we could play was also something more redish/ purpleish in color, with a thick purple fog in the background. You could see some windows and it looked A BIT like the first concept (like the picture above) but you could barely see the background scenario due to the fog. The ground was brown carved stones at some point, and more plain at other parts. So, while i was playing, i kept going foward. Lots of plataforming and some stairs, killing a bunch of new demons that we never saw, i really don't remember how they looked and picking small crystals, new items i don't know the use for. I remember getting a Enchant Shard from a Demon, whose looks i don't remember, and the shard's effect i don't remember too, until i reached a boss. The boss i remember in quite detail. It was big, but not huge, like the size of Dullahammer. It looked like a huge spinning "disk" made of flesh, bones and skulls. It was browish with red (blood / flesh) parts, with a wheel made of bones, a pile of skulls in the center that formed a huge menacing skull. It kept spinning nonstop on it's place without moving. The boss's method of attack was shooting pink lasers that could move after being shot and breathing a wind that kept me from getting closer (i think the wind came from it's spinning velocity). So you was "locked" at the left, with the boss at the right. The only way to hit him was by shooting with the Megaman's-style gun i had equipped and throwing the Skull-like shard i had. When i beat him, all he dropped was small crystals like the ones i got from other enemies. And then the demo ended. The demo got mixed reactions, with many people praising it and also many people saying that Miriam's movements got worse for some reason. I don't remember, but i think Miriam's visuals was also a bit different (maybe that's why the meny didn't had artwork?). Then, after playing it, i came here to do my traditional analysis post at the update thread, and then i woke up. ... Talk about someone willing to play more Bloodstained, to the point of dreaming with it! I wanted to post this also because, when the Demo is out, i wanna check if ANYTHING on my dream will make any sense. Or maybe when the full game is out. Well..tha's it. Thanks for reading. That's all folks!
I'm not really good at drawing, but maybe i will draw the boss, since it is the only thing i remember clearly, and post here, if it doesn't look terrible.

But could Miriam dash and wall-jump like Mega Man X in this dream of yours? I'd love to see that.

I also had a dream about a beta or new demo about a week ago. I don't remember much of my dreams though, so I didn't say anything. It's a cool coincidence though.

Wow! Cool dream!
My dreams are usually very bizarre. The most recent one I can remember involved me driving my van into a convention area building and down the aisles of chairs because I was too lazy to walk there. When I turned around, my van was missing. Someone had towed it away because apparently I wasn't supposed to drive my van down carpeted aisles where people were walking! I spent the rest of my dream trying to find where they towed it. Weird, right?

That's a pretty cool dream lol, I like it. I can picture your boss fairly well. It sounds to me like a cross between a Dark Souls bone wheel and a Legion boss. Fighting it MMX style sounds great, too. I do hope the game has charged shot guns like that... Inti knows about some guns Also, the last dream I remember involved me hanging out with Bob Ross. iirc. Can't remember right now what we were doing.

Predictions: -Next update we see an area with voice acting in it, maybe the village again. So it's a clip. - June we get a demo of that area. Along with an E3 trailer. Bold predictions.

Bold, but not unreasonable, dastlecan.
And hey PM this was perfectly great as a thread idea. It doesn't have to be something Officially Official to be posted. I'm more just about the organization of it.

I have not yet had a Bloodstained related dream that I remember, although this one sound pretty good. It is in fact quite unusual for me to remember my dreams at all.
I did have a rather vivid dream at one time that a group of vampires, kind of like the ones from the movie The Lost Boys, were attempting to run me down in downtown Seattle with an old convertible Cadillac. They ended up crashing into a traffic light pole and then chasing me into the sewer. The sewer was quite large and things got kind of fuzzy and really weird from that point until I woke up.

That's some fancy dream you've had Pure Miriam. You sure you didn't come into contact with a Great Old One or something?

Nice dream you had. Let's see if it's close to what we hopefully are about to test soon. At worst you experienced what sort of dreams game creators can get, to inspire them to make a game (I'd even say arts are born from dreams).
So the boss was more or less a super Buffed Disc Armor? I jest.
And yes, I hope for the next demo to take place in the castle. These shots in progress looked so magnificent it would be criminal to not have a take at them before the game goes gold...
Thanks for sharing!

Galamoth i don't think so. I don't remember wall-jumping or anything like that in my dream, but it would be fun, for sure! Thanks purifyweirdshard BalancedHydra Ahaha, not that i remember Lestaroth about the boss, well, i did a bad artwork of him. I said i don't know much how to draw, although i tried to learn, so, here goes. It was something like this:

Wow, that's pretty great you could remember a shape that well. I see now, so it's really a bone-themed disk. It's a neat concept coming from dreams.
I do suppose that what is around the main demon skull are a lot of little skulls? That's very interesting.

Lestaroth Yes. The big demonic skull in the middle had a lot of mini skulls around it. I didn't remember if the big skull was something FORMED by the mini skulls (as i said) or not, i made the drawing as if it wasn't. The big skill was linked to the bone disc by flesh (the "veins") and what was spinning was just the outer disc with the "femur like bones" around it. It's attacks (purple / pink lasers) was shot by the big skull. Since Miriam in my dream had a Trigger Shard of shooting big skulls, for some reason, "skull" was a theme on my dream, it seems. I wonder what type and kind of shard a boss like that would give. A simple Trigger one, shooting purple lasers? Maybe a Effective one, breathing the same wind the Boss did with it's spinning disc (that locked you from getting closer), maybe letting you "fly" for a bit (progression ability)? This was quite a interesting dream.

One of the early ideas I had, yet never suggested is that some familiars are actually reborn bosses... in a mini-form. Imagine mini-Vepar sitting on Miriam's elbow or floating around, spewing seawater jets on demand...
Your boss could then shoot lasers ad nauseam as well.

Digging this back up because I had a Bloodstained dream last night myself! I think it's my first one, at least that I can remember. I'm trying to remember as much as I can about it, but...this is all I can recall right now:
There were pixel art character portraits of several characters...and I didn't really recognize them as the main cast. One was a girl with blue hair.
Miriam unlocked new special attacks by level, all the way up to level 240. I was like, geez that's excessive! The icons for them were all spectral/stained glass looking sword icons that I saw, or at least the last one was ;p ...I believe that these, and the character portraits, and several other things were unlocks that I was looking at.
A forum member (I can't remember which) materialized in human form to come ask me about the game. I can't remember exactly what I said to them, but probably something like "there is a ridiculous amount of stuff to unlock, but it seems good".
I think I saw level, or gameplay in general, but I can't remember that much. Seems like I was in menus for most of the time, and at my parents' house. Pretty cool thing to dream about anyway lol. I am again amazed at how vividly Pure Miriam remembered the details of his.
