Update 57 November KickStarter Update is Live Now!

THAT flame sword!! Now I can't wait to see a flame whip!!!

I knew what you were talking about Clear haha, I'll never forget that video. Guy had a great moment showing some personality there.

Angel-Corlux , the Geek Reply site (LINK HERE) noticed that the Axe is casting a shadow even when it's not visible. I made a screenshot below and it is indeed true.


Just a feedback for the dev team. That is probably a bug that must be fixed.




It seems the shadow is casting like Miriam is holding the axe in front of her somehow, even through that does not happen at her model.

Miriam would look gorgeous with long beautiful hair like Bloodless's, though wavy instead and with cute bangs.

maybe the monitor's screen is too dark, but that new hairstyle they demonstrated is long in the front but looks too short in the back, the default hairstyle looks better. I don't like short hair, nor hair tied up. would say that new hairstyle would look better with at least a long braided ponytail.

there is magic in Bloodstained. changing to longer hair should be possible.

if not, then so far I'll just stick to the default hairstyle.

The weapons look great and the hairstyles/outfits are really nice and i'm glad they are in there. Variety in appearance and customisation options are a wonderful way of keeping the player invested in the game. I really wish that we could be given some assurances that the same variety we see with Miriam will be present in enemy death animations. (i know i keep saying this but it's what keeps me playing this kind of game - it's as important as player appearence). Oh yeah the Rat looks gross by the way - nice job it's genuinely creepy.

I don't know if any of the color/contrast has been adjusted but it feels darker/moodier and less washed out color wise. So if there was a change recently than it's for the better. If i'm wrong than ignore me.....I probably need glasses.

Customization features like these are always welcome. Glad to see them in action.

That said, the game seems to be leaning more and more into a style that's more "cute," light-hearted, and playful. As much as I hate to use the term, "Weebo" seems like the most apt descriptor. And honestly it's making it difficult to stay as excited for the game as I was at the start. I backed the game day one without hesitation and don't regret it at all. I'll be playing the hell out of the game when it launches. Others seem to be happy with the way the game is looking and hopefully that's representative of the majority of players. But for now it seems rather than being the successor to Castlevania I was hoping for Bloodstained will likely be another pretty good game that makes me miss Castlevania that much more.

I totally agree with you on this.
Right from the start I wanted Miriam to be this strong fighter but after seeing her stance and her general looks this doesn't seem to be the case, they are pandering to a certain audience here.
There are a lot of users screaming "cute!" when they see the Corgi hat or the bunny ears but that's not the kind of game I wanted from the start.

This is ofcourse IGA's decision and I respect that.
Having said this I know I'll love the game and play through it many times....but ofcourse without any cute items equipped 

I'm confused Pure Miriam. I don't remember calling this a lighthearted cute game, or saying anything about it's tone or costumes. I can see some of the costume related stuff that's come out so far as being maybe a little light hearted for some, but I'm assuming that there's going to be a lot of other options available for those that want something more serious that a bunny costume.
