Shining
Shining is a Sega role-playing game franchise that originated back in 1991 on the Sega Genesis & Mega Drive. Over the years, the games have adopted different modalities and mechanics - including turn-based RPG, strategy, and dungeon crawler - though many games share common character threads and a fantasy aesthetic. Most Shining games take an average of about 20 hours to complete, with later generation titles being longer and portable titles being shorter.

Doom 64 was released as a brand new Doom campaign for the Nintendo 64, set after the events of Final Doom. While not extremely successful or lauded upon its release, the game has become somewhat of a cult classic over the years for its difficulty and atmosphere, in part due to a spooky ambient soundtrack from Aubrey Hodges. The game's sleeper status peaked in recent years when Bethesda dropped a remaster of the game in 2020 for modern platforms at a bargain price.

We've had a Hell of a month! Here's a look at all the badges we've earned in October as we played through Castlevania games:
There's a little less than a week left to defeat some Dracula reincarnations while it's still en vogue. Keep posting your kills in this thread.
Let's start taking nominations for the November Game of the Month. No themes or executive decisions this month. Post the name of a retro game you want to play as a group during the month of November.
When we hit five nominations (or October 29), we'll start voting.

I'm on stage VII of SCIV. It's actually very different than how I remembered it. I only played it once, when I was fairly young, and did manage to beat it. My memory of the game was pretty fuzzy though, there were just specific levels/sections I remembered, and that's it. It's a lot harder than I expected. I was thinking this was one of the easier ones. At least it has unlimited continues, that's nice. It seems heavier on tricky platforming than any of the Castlevania games I've played, often to an annoying degree. I'm really enjoying it overall though.
Are y'all using save states, or are you all just amazing at Castlevania? Some of you are just cranking out game after game. I'm trying to beat these legit, but it's taking me a lot of tries.

I beat the original famicom Castlevania 1
It wasn’t much different. I did beat it way faster though, and I played it
on the normal setting not easy and I’m not playing through hard either.
I’d say it took me just under 2 hours but maybe it was less than that.
You really only need save states around Dracula 🧛♂️ maybe before
Frankenstein and the Grim Reaper too but I think I passed the whole
Grim Reaper stage without dying since I had the Holy Water x 3 all the way
through it. That was the only stage I didn’t die on tonight besides the 1st stage though.
It was pretty fun too.

Finished Super Castlevania IV this morning, after spending way too long being pelted by seemingly-unavoidable purple fireballs.
image
Didn't enjoy it as much as I expected it to. It feels a whole lot slower, and the soundtrack didn't make the transition to 16-bit as gracefully as I would have liked. Still a solid game, and I actually like circling the d-pad to swing your whip.
I was going to pick up Castlevania 64 next, but I doubt I'll finish that before Monday, so I'm going to start Castlevania Chronicles instead. I've had that game in my PSN library since the mid-2000s and never played it, and I can't figure out how to do anything productive in the MiSTer X68000 core, so now seems as good a time as any to play it.

I'm enjoying SCIV a lot overall, but I definitely have some gripes about it. It's not holding up quite as well as I'd hoped.
These are the non-3D Castlevania games I still haven't beaten:
Castlevania Chronicles
Castlevania: Dracula X
Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles
Castlevania: The Adventure ReBirth
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow - Mirror of Fate
Castlevania: Harmony of Despair
Hopefully I can finish up SCIV in the next day or two and at least start up one of these before the month is over. I've been wanting to finish beating all of the Castlevania games for a while now but kept putting it off for other games, so I'm glad this thread finally got me back into it.
I'm still not really clear on what Harmony of Despair is like. I know it has online multiplayer, but is playing it solo an option?

Are we doing six nominations this month?
That would be pretty cool.
Also I concur about Castlevania 64 being way better than people
will ever give it credit for. Sure I haven’t played it in 20 years
but when I did I loved it and I always enjoyed it more than
more conventionally popular releases like SOTN and Super Castlevania.
Obviously it’s in 3D so if you can’t even with that then it’s not going
to make it any easier with a Castlevania game, which I don’t
Remember it being all that hard but it’s been awhile.
If I had not given my copy to my friend I would have started playing
it already. As it is I did start on the first Gameboy game and for
some reason these games that played fine on Xbox One are
really glitchy on my Series S. The Gameboy game has a ton of slowdown
which makes an unplayable game even less playable. Utter nonsense.
