Why was this game called Circle of the Moon anyway? Isnt that name rather pointless for a series that usually takes place at night?

Castlevania titles in Japan are FUCKED. >English localizers came up with the "X of Y' scheme for IGAvanias>first game was called Akumajou Dracula (Demon Castle Dracula), Simon Quest is "Dracula 2", Dracula's Curse is just "Demon Castle Legend" while The Adventure is "Dracula Legend">Bloodlines is called "Vampire Killer">Harmony of Dissonance is called "Castlevania: Concerto of the Midnight Sun">Lament of Innocence is just called "Castlevania" >Aria of Sorrow has the prefix of "Castlevania", Dawn of Sorrow's back to using Akumajou Dracula>first two Lords of Shadow games are Castlevania, LoS2 is back to being Akumajo DraculaFor some of these, it makes sense not to use Dracula since he's not the villain of those, but it must get really annoying at times.

>>520849304I spent a whole summer playing this with a friend (basically I played and he kinda watched, it was really hard to see the screen). I was very hyped with this along with the whole gba release, good times

>>520850831The English title makes a bit more sense given that, since a harmony of dissonance is also an oxymoron.

I'm playing through Portrait of Ruin and the two-character gimmick seems really under developed. Charlotte is cute and all but between Jonathan's weapon variety, subweapon mastery sidequests, and the quick cast button, there doesn't seem to be any reason to swap characters at all. I can't even let AI Charlotte run around because she ends up sapping my MP and killing enemies before I can tag them with a subweapon for the mastery points.

>>520849304I mean what're you going to name it? It's a fucking Castlevania game. Descriptive titles are always going to be a mess since they're all about the same shit, may as well just go for something artsy and memorable.My alt titles for the GBA games would go just pureCastlevania: Levelling is FUCKED But The Weapon Card System Is CoolCastelvania: Dodge And Weave Everywhere For No ReasonCastlevania: Collect a Lot of Souls And Guns Are Not That Useful
