Trains?

1. Since this takes place in the Industrial Revolution, will there be a part with trains? Maybe even a train stage?
2. Will there be a boss rush?

sumo9988 I renamed your subject line. 1. I doubt it. Trains were probably just out of reach in the time line. I think the game is set in the very late 1700s and trains were more like 1840. 2. Yes! 2 million stretch goal was reached.

Geez, I forgot just how many stretch goals we busted through lol.
Yeah, historically, trains are -just- out of reach. Something to look forward to in sequels? If there's much transportation in Bloodstained, we're going to see horses. Lots and lots of horses.

For me, it might be possible that there will be trains Though since it's just the start of the industrial era, the train might just be a concept in the game if we really follow the history there

I could be wrong on the date. I couldn't find a reference to an official date. The game takes place in the castle though. The hype train is legit.

Consider all/most of the game takes place in a castle, I'm not sure there would be need/place for a train. A ghost train boss would be kind of cool though. But again, hard to fit into the narrative of this game. If this game were structured more like Simon's Quest/Order of Ecclesia then that would be easier to accommodate.

I'll suplex a ghost train then throw a phoenix down at it.

I'm all for it. While running from it. Consider all/most of the game takes place in a castle, I'm not sure there would be need/place for a train. A ghost train boss would be kind of cool though. But again, hard to fit into the narrative of this game. If this game were structured more like Simon's Quest/Order of Ecclesia then that would be easier to accommodate. If they really wanted to, they could add in a train port in a large back room area. Suggesting train support helped maintain the inhabitants. But that is for a non-summoned castle. In this case, it could be a ghost train of sorts or a prison train sending 'subjects' for experimentation and/or demonification.

The castle seems to be on an island. Outlook not so good for Bloodstained trains.

I scoured the forums to try and find *facts* (subject to change until game is officially released) about the setting to Bloodstained, but I can't recall the country or year in which it is set. But my mind says it is the start of the Industrial Revolution, and somewhere in Europe. Trains might be possible. The Industrial Revolution was the transition to new manufacturing processes in the period from about 1760 to sometime between 1820 and 1840. The first full-scale working railway steam locomotive was built in the United Kingdom in 1804. I am more excited to see a clock tower in the castle though! The first pendulum clock was built in 1657 in the Hague, well before the Industrial Revolution. Edit: The castle seems to be on an island. Outlook not so good for Bloodstained trains.

It's definitely England, but I can't nail down the decade. 10 points to whoever finds the setting date.

Well, the external article section of the forum combined with the Kickstarter info should be compiled in a post. Why haven't we done that yet?

Well, the external article section of the forum combined with the Kickstarter info should be compiled in a post. Why haven't we done that yet? My guess would be it is the hours of interviews to pick apart for everything, that plus the physical information needed to be researched, i.e. Destructoid Magazine. Not to mention all the comments spanning this website, the Kickstarter page, Reddit, Twitter, Miriam- The Bloodstained Orphan Facebook page, Operation: Akumajo, the IGAverse at the top of the page, and all your podcasts. *phew!* The game is still over a year away from completion and we already have a plethora of information to dig through! Great work Army of the Night! And we also have another update before the new year. My brain hurts.

The only train I'm aware of is the hype train. I think this game can get away with trains given the type of world they seem to reside in. Though people who prefer historical accuracy might cry foul, so eh. I say keep it believable, but have some fun. I love trains so I wouldn't mind seeing them.

Heh, we can do it though. Maybe that's what I should focus on next. Ixbran linked to a Bloodstained wiki page in the community links thread. Maybe that will shape up. Looks like it's full of ads though.

I was looking at the stretch goals the other day and just sat there thinking "Wow are we really getting all that? We're not worthy."

It certainly is a 'train' load of accomplishments for the project. Never saw such at the caboose but once it started rolling it just kept going.
