I'd like to see some nods of course, and maybe some more meaningful references, but in the overall, I do want it to evolve and improve from the Castlevania games. Some nods just to show improvements could also be interesting.

I'd like everything they can't get sued for to be included. As much CV in Bloodstained as possible. I understand the merits of being it's own game and should be able to stand on it's own, but just personally I want to see as many things as possible that will make CV fans feel like the game is really filling the void and upholding the legacy. I have no doubt it will carry on the legacy of Iga's CV games, but I want to see other things too. I guess one thing that would make me really happy would be the rotating room from Super CV IV. i myself would like a non-canon whip-wielding holy item-throwing character to be playable in an extra mode  |

I would like to find Dracula in some room in the castle and throw glasses with red wine together. Miriam could even fight him and after he is defeated tell him "This is not your castle" or "please wait 100 years". We could have stained glass Dracula painting or statue, as well. I would like some nod like that. Maybe some similar situation as in Portrait of ruin..you are in a castle, its Master is Brauner..but not really. It is Dracula, it is always Dracula  ..or IGA  |

I mean, it would be a vague reference to Lament of Innocence, but it's not strictly Castlevania. A similar stone would be the "Philosopher's Stone", also depicted in the Fullmetal Alchemist manga/anime series.  (Not to mention that the characters in Bloodstained are Alchemists themselves) |

You know, I'm pretty conflicted on this now that I'm actually thinking on it. I kind of want a ton of cheesy references because I love Castlevania and some of its sillier aspects, but at the same time, I think I'd rather not have that happen since Bloodstained is its own game (even if the premise is partially Castlevania with the serial numbers filed off).
I guess I should say that sticking to the middle ground might be nice. There can be some fun references, but it shouldn't engulf all aspects of the game since this is new and not Castlevania. Maybe some bonus areas and bosses to discover could be fun, too.

I think the game needs space to carve out its own identity. They'd have to be really really vague.

What about now that Konami has decided to derp out? I mean....if he could, I'd love to see IGA and them be able to take back his series, not like Konami should care and then we'd not have to worry about references, since we could get new games =P

Classic castle sections; like the clock tower, alchemy lab, underground, etc. Not exactly as Castlevania but something easy recognizable would be nice

I figured that since this game will most likely have some generic skeletons to kill and the ability to use whips, then that is already plenty enough to reference the good ol' days.
......man who am I kidding, I want the horrible night to have a curse line AND some wall chicken. Hell IGA can mix it up and use wall hot-dogs or wall rump roast this time around or something. I just better have some wall food, lol.

Actually, the ghost armchair and the glass of wine already are references. The game will have plenty of easter-eggs for sure, we got this stretch-goal.  |

If anything, I'd like a little reference to Shanoa and Albus from Order of Ecclesia. Since that game in particular feels like what Bloodstaind will be building upon.

Some subtle references to OoE would be really nice. How about some stained glass windows in Gebel's Castle with depictions of characters that vaguely resemble those two? |

Stained glass would be a cleaver and obscure way to reference them. Could go farther and portray the entire Castlevania story in such a way. Have a secret location in the castle where the murals can be seen.

Have a secret location in the castle where the murals can be seen. I really like this idea. Stained glass scenes depicting rough outlines/imagery of Castlevania games. It might be more interesting actually if they were strewn about the castle. Some might not be obvious at first, but fan discussion and speculation after a bit turns up references in the images...could be pretty great. Otherwise, could just be a great way to show some subtle plot details of the actual Bloodstained canon. |
