Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) | comment |
Castlevania: Lords Of Shadow 2 is an action adventure game developed by MercurySteam published by Konami for PS3, Xbox 360 and PC, and the sequel to the 2010 Castlevania Continuity Reboot Origins Episode Castlevania: Lords of Shadow (aka God of War in Europe with friggin' werewolves). It was released in North America on February 25, 2014; Europe on February 27; and the UK on February 28; a demo was included for free with the download of Mirror of Fate HD.At the end of Lords of Shadow, Gabriel Belmont gave up his humanity and became the vampire lord Dracula. But after a millennium of war with those who betrayed him, even he yearns for release from his immortal bonds. In the modern day, a weakened Dracula's only hope lies in a final task: fight through the forces of Hell and Earth to face a powerful enemy from his past one last time. But to do so, the vampire lord must reacquire his old powers – and only his castle holds the key.The first, and only, batch of DLC, titled "Revelations", released on March 25th, and follows Alucard.Previews: trailer 1, trailer 2, trailer 3, trailer 4 trailer 5, trailer 6.Due to the Twist Ending in the first Lords of Shadow, expect unmarked spoilers. | |

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_105d50b1 | comment |
Psychological Torment Zone: This is what the Castle segments are made of. It is a Mental World where all of its “inhabitants” – omitting Dracula – are mere projections of his psyche animated by Inner Dracula. And the Demon's goal would be to stop its host from leaving this illusion. | |

Unexpected Gameplay Change | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_1467a30c | comment |
Unexpected Gameplay Change: Stealth sections. Zobek explains that due to your current weakness, any encounters with the heavily-armored Golgoth Guards will be best approached with stealth rather than brute force. But then that's applied to every section where these Guards come along. Presumably even with all of his power intact, Dracula still doesn't have the necessary strength and experience recalled to face them until just before the Final Boss, when no more Golgoth Guards appear. | |

All There in the Manual | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_17ce80aa | comment |
All There in the Manual: The memorials found in-game imply that four hundred years had passed between Mirror of Fate and Lords of Shadow 2's prologue, during which Dracula ran rampant. The scrolls also seem to indicate that the year the game takes place in is 2057. Producer Dave Cox has clarified a few story points on his Twitter account, such as the fact that Satan was killed off for good, that Gabriel saw his destiny in the Mirror before shattering it, and that he is now the master of the Earth. Satan's acolytes are never referred to by name, even in the ending credits where it shows who voiced them, except in the section of the Travel Book where it lists characters, enemies, and bosses. | |

Unwinnable by Design: It is physically impossible to uncover the hideout of the third Acolyte before Alucard. Even if you dart to the Cathedral right after you defeat Zobek and disregard any optional fight on your way – the quickest way being warping to the Arts District using the Downtown Map Room, and then backtracking through the museum – Alucard will still be waiting for you to turn up. | |

Sequel Difficulty Drop: The game's noticeably more casual if compared to the first Lords of Shadow thanks to the improved mechanics that grant Gabriel the ability to dodge/block mid-air, toning down of the Fake Difficulty, and the add-on of quite a few Game Breakers that are available from the get-go. | |

Adaptational Villainy | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_20f689e9 | comment |
Adaptational Villainy: Of an odd sort, with Zobek/Death. Granted, in the original continuity, Death has always been a villain, but he was also a close ally of Dracula's, with the games often referring to him as Dracula's confidante. In this game, he's an undeniable Enemy Mine to Dracula who cares nothing for anyone and is pretty clearly manipulating Dracula for his own personal gain. Death does occasionally refer to Dracula as 'friend,' but in a way that is practically dripping with venom. | |

Crapsack World: This game takes place in a world where a several-century-long war against a vampire lord is historical fact, Satan's followers are unleashing a plague that turns people into monsters, and the riot police of the city are described by the in-game text as being unscrupulous. The world of the Lords of Shadow saga is not a nice place to live. | |

Player Inventory | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_2614d2f6 | comment |
Player Inventory: One of the novelties if compared with the first game. The inventory is now divided into infinite-ammo subweapons powered by a regenerating gauge, and six limited-ammo items that grant new abilities. One of these is essentially the old Dark Crystal Smart Bomb subweapon (only now requiring five parts instead of four), while the others are a health potion, an item to briefly grant infinite magic power using the same mechanics as the introductory chapter, an item for finding secrets, an item that grants a temporary boost to mastery (weapon level) and unlocks all abilities, and an item that renders enemies extremely vulnerable when struck and grants experience per hit rather than per kill. | |

Mythology Gag | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Dracula uses a derivative of the classic Humans Are the Real Monsters line from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night: Roland de Ronceval uses Richter's Castlevania: Symphony of the Night line, "Die, monster! You don't belong in this world!" too. The Belmont encountered in this game is Victor, one of the main characters from the canceled Castlevania: Resurrection. Inner Dracula's first form bears an unearthly resemblance to Menace. The head of the Bernhard Family first encountered in Lords of Shadow 1 was named Walter. The Toy Maker says, "Heh heh heh, thank you!" much like the shopkeeper from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. Alucard's sword is named the Crissaegrim, after the Infinity +1 Sword in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. The icon of the “Start the Path” achievement/trophy features Dracula's classic 8-bit sprite from Castlevania. The prologue starts with holy warriors taking Dracula's castle by storm, and breaking into his Throne Room to find him drinking a glass of ...wine. Only this time, you're Dracula. One of the cosmetic DLCs is an "Armored Dracula" skin which gives him black armor and clothing reminiscent of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night's Dracula. It even grows out his beard a bit more to make the likeness more apparent. The default hair color remains black, but if you combine this skin with the Dark Dracula DLC, you can dye it silver/off-white, bringing the resemblance straight into uncanny territory. | |

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_2ae29c0d | comment |
The Dreaded: Invoked by Dracula in the trailers. In case you had any doubts, Dracula is so feared that Zobek and even Satan are scared of him. Dracula has to fake his own death to bring them out into the open. | |

Limit Break | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_2afb1a9 | comment |
Limit Break: The Dragon Talisman: When you have five dragon scales, using it causes Dracula to go into a cutscene where he turns into a dragon made of shadows and chaos, before crashing down and doing damage that will kill just about everything in the game short of a boss in one hit. It also makes Dracula invincible and locks him into stronger than normal chaos claws for about half a minute after. | |

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_2fcf9bbc | comment |
Gratuitous Foreign Language: Latin mostly, although we also have Demonic Speech and in one case, ancient Enochian, the language of Satan. All prayers and/or chants are predominantly in Latin. Same goes for the clerics of the Brotherhood and their spells. Ditto for Dracula's demented blood-written ravings in Revelations. | |

Damage-Increasing Debuff: Some of the Void Sword's attacks, like Blizzard, Icy Crest, and Hoarfrost Fog accomplish this. Not only do they freeze the target into a solid block, but also make any other attack with the whip or the claws inflict greater damage for a limited time. | |

Konami Code: Shows up both as a code and in-universe. As a code, it allows accessing the Cheat Menu. Entering it during the loading screen makes Dracula (or Alucard in Revelations) wink at the player themselves. In-universe, one of the Brotherhood knights attacking Dracula's Castle went insane and was going over a ritual that involved all of the steps, with "grab the air" for B and "jump" for A. He fell to his death while attempting to “press Start.” | |

Infant Immortality: Zigzagged with young!Trevor. Early on in the main story, you're expected to protect him from the frenzied Dishonored Vampires, and during that sequence, Trevor's unkillable. That being said, it is still possible for him to die if you loiter and let the vampires slit his throat via a scripted grip attack. Averted with the version of Trevor present during one of Kleidos' challenges: he'll be gunned down by the Infected if you're not careful. | |

When you first encounter Nergal Meslamstea, he begins subjecting Dracula to electric torture.

Useless Useful Spell | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_4c709317 | comment |
Useless Useful Spell: The Bat Swarm sounds fascinating on paper, but in practice it's going to be shelved really quickly. Most of the more powerful enemies are outright immune to it, so it leaves you with the weakest of the mooks to use it on. But even then, there are two outcomes. Either the blinded/stunned enemy will remain fixed in place trying to shake the bats off, or the opposite, go berserk and start running about, ramming into anyone it its way. Yes, than includes you, which is obviously more bad than good. The one good thing about the Swarm is that after it wears off, the mook in question will immediately enter the “low-health/grapple-able” phase (regardless of its hit points), thus allowing you to run up to it and execute it with a finisher. | |

Another appropriate one from the daughter of Satan to both Gabriel and Zobek, considering God's continual absence from the apocalyptic equation. | |

Vampire Bites Suck | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_5bf112dc | comment |
Vampire Bites Suck: When Dracula chomps into an opponent, he not only reduces them to a desiccated husk, but his lower face and chest get covered in bloody spatter. He can also dismember his victim with his bare hands seconds later. Averted when Dracula feeds on Marie and Carmilla, making this more of a Kiss of the Vampire. Alucard gets a subverted version of this, preferring to first slice open his victim's throat with his Crissaegrim and only then either feed or lick the blood off the blade. | |

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_5f3bb274 | comment |
Late-Arrival Spoiler: Every trailer and piece of advertising will instantly give away The Reveal from the first game that Gabriel Belmont became Dracula. Somewhat averted with Zobek. From the trailers and first couple of hours of gameplay, it's clear he's a much darker character than the noble knight he initially presented himself as, but it's not outright shown that he's in fact the third Lord of Shadow, which was arguably the first game's big reveal. | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_6320eced | comment |
Gameplay and Story Segregation: Dracula is unable to die by any means except the Vampire Killer Combat Cross. However, it is possible to die in combat. Although Dracula is pretty much a demigod who can go toe-to-toe with Satan himself and come out on top, he is incapable of defeating Golgoth guards in straight-up combat and must always sneak past or avoid fighting them if they do spot him. While its initially handwaved during the first encounter that he is too weak to fight (which is true since he lacks his Void Sword), but every time he encounters them he is unable to fight them on, even after he recovered most of his powers and is now capable of overcoming stronger enemies. | |

Zobek also becomes an important antagonist, but is not given the same focus as the other two. | |

Soon enough, actual demons begin emerging into the streets alongside all types of dark creatures in service to Satan. | |

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_7a6eac7f | comment |
Biblical Motifs: Golly, where to even start? The armor-clad brutes you encounter early in the game are called Golgoth Guards. Golgotha was the name of the site where Jesus Christ was crucified. The first boss you clash with, a paladin by the name of Roland de Ronceval, bears an inexplicit resemblance to Archangel Michael, stature and portrayal-wise. After recovering his youthful appearance, Dracula is seen laying in a very subtle pose. A scrapped concept for the game involved Satan having a second form of a crowned, seven-headed beast. Dracula himself. The entire plot, really. | |

Nergal, the second acolyte, physically resembles Pinhead from the Hellraiser series, down to the dark clothing and bald head sans the nails, and one could say fulfills the same role (being servants/heralds to a higher Ultimate Evil).

Where the Hell Is Springfield? | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_8504b817 | comment |
Where the Hell Is Springfield?: Castlevania City is somewhere in Middle to Eastern Europe, except the city itself looks like Budapest, Madrid and London had a child together and left it up in the mountains somewhere. Cars and Trucks in the city have American, European and Japanese influences. Elevators are referred to as lifts and the elevator buttons are in Japanese. Castlevania City's architecture is predominantly Gothic, but there are Romanesque and Baroque influences as well, along with various modern architectural styles including high-tech, which is seen in some of the skyscrapers and high-rises. The part of the city right outside of the church where Dracula woke up looks like a mix between Times Square and Piccadilly Circus. The Riot Police are wearing WW1-WW2 era gas masks, and their assault rifles look like they're PPSh-41 submachineguns with extra furniture on them. | |

Memory Gambit | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_87646020 | comment |
Memory Gambit: The entire plot of Lords of Shadow 2 is based on one of these. During the prologue, Alucard convinced Dracula to fake his own death because he knows it's the only thing that would cause both Zobek and Satan to come out into the open, allowing Dracula to destroy them both in one fell swoop. Laser-Guided Amnesia would accompany that fake death. The “memory” part of the gambit played out when Gabriel teamed up with Zobek: Death couldn't read his blanked-out memories. | |

In fact, the first thing he does upon finding himself in a room with family of muggles, weakened and hungry, is kill and drain all three of them. Ultimately subverted. See Anti Anti Christ. | |

Non-Standard Game Over | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_8e0430ab | comment |
Non-Standard Game Over: Besides failing the QTEs, there are a handful of circumstances that give a lengthy cutscene before going to the game over screen: During Carmilla's chapter, Dracula's being corrupted by her blood; if your real health falls below the black bar that's at the start of your health meter, you get a cutscene where Dracula is fully charmed and follows Carmilla into the darkness with a lovestruck look on his face. There is a similar cutscene if he chooses the wrong one of the two Maries. When you first encounter Nergal Meslamstea, he begins subjecting Dracula to electric torture. If you don't limp away from him and lure him to Castlevania where he's weak enough to even the odds, you get a cutscene where Dracula is set on fire as Nergal opens a portal to Hell for Satan to capture him. When fighting Inner Dracula, attempting to use the mist form to escape his life-sucking attack results in a short scene of Inner Dracula absorbing his normal self. | |

If ticked, Dracula will succeed on all of the QTEs without the player's input. | |

Demonic Possession: It's one of Dracula's powers, and it allows him to possess beings around him by turning himself into blood and entering their bodies. However, this doesn't last long, as Dracula's blood impairs the body quickly, making it stagger and move slowly, and it eventually explodes into Ludicrous Gibs. Satan possesses Alucard for the final battle. | |

Sword of Plot Advancement: The Vampire Killer Combat Cross is the only thing that can kill Dracula, and by implication of his bloodline, Alucard. The weapon serves to be the end goal of Dracula's journey until Alucard reminds him of their plan. Then it is still very important, but is to be used on the vampires after Satan and Zobek are defeated, and is ultimately not used on them at all. | |

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_9a1f23bf | comment |
Controllable Helplessness: Shortly after Dracula reawakens, he shambles down a city street, then encounters a hostile monster; in his weakened state, he can barely fight back. Similarly, Dracula can barely walk after being electrocuted by the second Acolyte, Nergal, with you still in control. This turns out to be important; the only way to fight him is to make Dracula crawl back to his castle, bringing Nergal with him. | |

Continuity Nod | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_9dab0a6e | comment |
Continuity Nod: An enormous statue of Satan can be seen in Dracula's Throne Room. Gabriel mentions Chupacabra's irritating tendency to steal magic artifacts. Dracula awakens in the very same church seen in the epilogue of Lords of Shadow 1. In Castlevania City, there is a local business called Bernhard Metals, Ltd. Baba Yaga's music box from the first game can be seen on Zobek's desk in a cutscene shortly after Dracula kills the second acolyte. At the end of the tutorial level, Dracula matches the crusader's prayers word for word, referencing him being a member of the Brotherhood of Light in the first game. The sprawling metropolis that serves as the game's setting is none other than Wygol, the snowy mountain village that you visited in Chapter V of Lords of Shadow a thousand years earlier. In the modern day, it has been renamed "Castlevania City". Victor Belmont uses many of the same moves Gabriel had in Lords of Shadow during your fight with him (e.g. Chain Saw/Direct Counterstrike), to the point of using his discarded relics (Seraph Shoulders) and sub-weapons (the Dark Crystal/Daggers)! The beast Satan summons is called Leviathan. You might remember its man-eating spawn swimming through the depths of the castle in the first game's Reverie DLC. | |

There are more instances of the number three appearing, but there are too many to list here. | |

Alternate History: Based on the City Memorials, Lords of Shadows 2 takes place in a world where the centuries-long struggle between Dracula and the Brotherhood of Light is considered to be historical fact. This makes sense, considering that the game's prologue has Dracula wiping out an entire army by way of a gigantic explosion that could be seen from space. Something like that would be hard to keep secret. | |

Brutal Bonus Level | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_be3e7584 | comment |
Brutal Bonus Level: The Kleidos Challenges are similar to the first game's trials, but have a twist. You have to fulfill multiple (as opposed to Lords of Shadow only) criteria and survive to unlock the next challenge. Fortunately, they don't involve any specific platforming-time trials, but they're still a lot more difficult than the rest of the game. | |

Shout-Out | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Dracula's rat transformation is very similar to a scene from Bram Stoker's Dracula. Another similarity to a scene from that movie is the cutscene after Carmilla is defeated, where Dracula pets the white wolf that transports him between the city and castle while Marie watches. When Dracula and Victor have to jump out a window to get a momentary respite from Abbadon, the way Victor jumps, combined with his white-hooded ensemble, makes him very closely resemble an assassin. Additionally, when leading Dracula up to the back entrance into the underground catacombs where the survivors are living, Victor uses parkour after double jumping up a series of beams. More specifically, he uses the Prince's wall run before diving onto the balcony. Nergal, the second acolyte, physically resembles Pinhead from the Hellraiser series, down to the dark clothing and bald head sans the nails, and one could say fulfills the same role (being servants/heralds to a higher Ultimate Evil). His battle taunts are very similar to Pinhead's most famous quotes. The third acolyte, a Satan-worshiping cleric named Guido Szandor, is almost certainly named for Anton Szandor LaVey, founder of the real-life Church of Satan. He may also be a reference to Ghostbusters villain Ivo Shandor, who is also the leader of a cult whose goal is to summon an evil deity to bring about the apocalypse. In the Revelations DLC, while scouring the Toy Maker's quarters, you come across a dead knight identified as "Angry Sir Rolfe", who complains that the solution to the Toy Maker's trap is so complicated that he'd almost wish for it to be just having to wait until being picked up by a magical tornado. This is a shout out to The Angry Video Game Nerd, James Rolfe, who started his online career by reviewing Castlevania II: Simon's Quest, where such an event actually happens. There, this doubles as a Mythology Gag. Nowhere outside of the Lords of Shadow series is Alucard's wolf form ever stated to be white. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night even explicitly shows it to have gray-blue fur. Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate changes the fur's color to silver, and this game makes a big deal of repeatedly referring to Alucard as "The White Wolf." Why is this significant? Because of the game company White Wolf, producers of many popular Gothic Punk Tabletop RPGs, most notably Vampire: The Masquerade. Chupacabra gets behind a shop counter, but has a raised step behind it. Dracula peers at it and Chupacabra says "The world is what you make of it. If it doesn't fit, you make alterations." This is all a direct reference to Silverado. The Lair of the Gorgon Sisters, being a single block suspended on chains above a pit, strongly resembles an Inferno faction's outpost building from Heroes of Might and Magic V. The map rooms that Dracula uses to warp around the city and castle look like they were taken right out of the opening credits to Game of Thrones. Partway through her boss fight, when Carmilla summons a spectral version of her true form that floats above her, a certain other vampire with a similar ability springs to mind... Higher-level demons from Satan's army vaguely resemble Tyranids. At one point the Travel Book refers to Hell as Avernus. The “Client Satisfaction” war memorial mentions the Jericho Unit, a group of specialists who battle the supernatural. | |

Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: Again, lots. Dracula impales a Dishonored Vampire through the head with his sword after it attempts to hurt his son. When Dracula performs a finishing move on a harpy, he will often impale her on her own spear. In fact, this is how the majority of bosses die as well. | |

But achieving this purposefully and then using the mist form or your own agility to evade him will yield Agreus... skulking away from your position, frequently to the other side of the garden which, obviously, gives you a whole lot of time to finish up the puzzle. | |

Adaptational Wimp | |

Adaptational Wimp: Played straight with Abaddon. In Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow and Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin, Abaddon was a locust demon with the ability to summon swarms of insects against you. Even a single rush of his swarm could stun-lock and potentially kill you, leading many players to consider him That One Boss. Lords Of Shadow 2's version is just a generic demon of the fallen angel variety. He's a very big generic demon, mind you, but not really special and is generally considered a Breather Boss despite him being immune to Dracula's Game-Breaker Whirlwind move. | |

Unusually Uninteresting Sight: Virtually none of of the Castlevania City citizens find the fact that an emaciated old man just got slingshot straight through the church's stained-glass window, landed and survived a fifteen-stories-high fall, and that another man in a splendid business suit just levitated down all that astounding, and resume their normal activities mere minutes after everything settles down. Justified, as, according to all the memorials you can discover, weird... stuff – mysterious disappearances, sightings of an ethereal wolf, semi-regular earthquakes – has been happening all over this city for centuries. People simply got used to it. | |

It's one of Dracula's powers, and it allows him to possess beings around him by turning himself into blood and entering their bodies. However, this doesn't last long, as Dracula's blood impairs the body quickly, making it stagger and move slowly, and it eventually explodes into Ludicrous Gibs. | |

Likewise, Dracula recovering from his apparent death at the end of Mirror of Fate is never elaborated on, though the fact that his dissolution at the end of the battle was different from that of other vampires indicates that he wasn't gone for good, and Alucard was waiting for when he would come up again. | |

Earn Your Happy Ending: Of a sort. After a thousand years of torment, Gabriel Belmont is finally allowed to live in peace with his son, Walking the Earth with him as it rebuilds from the Apocalypse. | |

Laser Blade | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_f8cddfb2 | comment |
Laser Blade: Dracula's mystical Void Sword has a blade made of pure energy rather than sharpened metal, though it looks metal enough. | |

Faking the Dead | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_f9876f7e | comment |
Likewise, Dracula recovering from his apparent death at the end of Mirror of Fate is never elaborated on, though the fact that his dissolution at the end of the battle was different from that of other vampires indicates that he wasn't gone for good, and Alucard was waiting for when he would come up again. | |

Perpetual Storm | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_fba50b70 | comment |
Perpetual Storm: There seems to be a whirling one hanging over the main tower (the Throne Room) of the castle, complete with a lightning striking its steeple every once in a while. | |

Hopeless Boss Fight | |
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (Video Game) / int_fc07d409 | comment |
Hopeless Boss Fight: After waking up in the present day, Dracula stumbles upon one of Satan's demons. At this point, Dracula is blood-starved from being asleep for several centuries and can barely attack or dodge. Zobek's bodyguard winds up bailing you out right before it can deliver the finishing blow. | |

A scrapped concept for the game involved Satan having a second form of a crowned, seven-headed beast. | |
