We haven't seen a good Castlevania game since Portrait of Ruin for Nintendo DS... *
warded 27.06.19 - 03:49pm
Got it! Asked my local gameshop and they sold me one. 
*
warded 27.06.19 - 05:01pm
it requires a nintendo account/being online to launch. *
warded 27.06.19 - 06:38pm
after creating the account i'm finally getting to play the game. 
*
warded 27.06.19 - 09:18pm
reading a bookshelf the 2nd time may crash the game... 
lost some progress and shards there. *
warded 27.06.19 - 09:22pm
The required being online kinda goes against the portability of the switch. What were they thinking (or drinking) ?! *
warded 28.06.19 - 04:06pm
i can understand it on PC, but not on something like the switch. 
a nintendo account is required to fkken launch the game... outrageous imo. i have 29 other games and none of them require an account/being online (disgaea 5 asks, but it can be skipped and the game will launch) ... *
warded 28.06.19 - 04:07pm
The game itself is fine so far thank fkk lol *
warded 29.06.19 - 04:55pm
i'm about 25 percent in and got double jump recently so i'm looking for newly accessible areas in old sections... *
warded 29.06.19 - 05:00pm
also i've been using attack boots only. meaning that i'm kicking all monsters in the face lol 
*
warded 29.06.19 - 05:05pm
The shard system feels like Aria/Dawn of Sorrow. *
warded 29.06.19 - 07:35pm

Upgraded my Toy Shoes to Bunny Boots. They pack a nice punch and they do not squeak when you walk. *
warded 1.07.19 - 11:40am
Okay, i'm stuck... There are places i can't go yet and i need atleast two skills (to go underwater and to fit through narrow spaces). i recently got double jump and identification... I may have to comb all of the map again... *
warded 1.07.19 - 02:36pm
Okay i needed to take the ID to O.D. in Livre EX Machina and he makes the train pass which is needed for the train @ evil bridge. Now i got the ability to travel through narrow spaces and to bounce off certain walls/tiles. *
warded 1.07.19 - 08:41pm
Got my 1st ending and it was a bad one... Kinda obvious since i'm only about 50 percent in the game. 
*
warded 2.07.19 - 09:31pm
PROTIP: Carry at least one Waystone with you at all times. Especially in the volcano area lol ... also one gets an invert ability before high jump it seems. kinda funky move tbh *
warded 4.07.19 - 08:15am
going through various places looking for the next new area. *
warded 4.07.19 - 05:29pm Once you reach Oriental Sorcery Lab there is an enemy (No. 084) called Haagenti. It drops the Bovine Plume which is used to create High Jump from Double Jump via alchemy. Also you do NOT lose the base Shard when you make new Shards via alchemy(!). So just make any Shards you can. *
warded 5.07.19 - 03:26pm
You can equip TWO plunderer's rings to increase Luck and item drops. *
warded 5.07.19 - 03:31pm
I play mainly a Luck Build with as much LCK as possible. Also i play as a kicker, mainly using shoe/boot weapons... *
warded 6.07.19 - 03:58pm
Cleared the game about 2 hours ago. 
*
warded 6.07.19 - 04:04pm
i got the hissing sound bug after final boss (the bug is multi-platform, a guy on ps4 got it). also once during talking to johannes the whole screen went screwy 8-bit style. There was ONE room that loaded awfully long when entering and exiting in the library area. There were some loading times in certain places. The game also loaded last save @ game over which was a nice touch i guess. *
warded 6.07.19 - 04:08pm
The version i played from start to finish was v1.0.1 and the game crashed on me one time only. Checked some reviews and graphics comparisons and it is clear that switch has the lowest quality, but i would not call it s**t tho *
warded 6.07.19 - 04:10pm
There was a few slowdowns and frame-rate hiccups in the game, but they were again in certain areas only. Mostly the game ran fine. I also played only in handheld mode. *
warded 6.07.19 - 07:05pm Wait, what? Detective's Eye Shard at max rank (9) turns into a skill shard that is always on. Cool. *
warded 6.07.19 - 07:07pm
The game has some kind of New Game+ where stuff can be carried over. Haven't tried that yet because i'm still gathering items and shards. *
warded 7.07.19 - 04:33pm
Wait... All yellow shards become skill shards at rank 9. Also Grade increases the stats/bonus they give. Neat! 
*
warded 7.07.19 - 09:38pm
it says so in the compendium lol *
warded 8.07.19 - 01:05pm
Found Iga's portrait and the 8-bit area. *
warded 8.07.19 - 01:07pm
I have mostly used Gale Crawler and Tis Raiff as my red shards. *
warded 8.07.19 - 04:42pm
Watched some comparisons and reviews. I still stand behind the facts that switch port is the weakest but i don't think it to be s**t. Xbox one X and PS4 Pro look and run better yeah, but i fully enjoyed the switch version and that is what matters in the end. However i obviously recommend PS4 and XOne X versions over the switch version. 
Also PC version. *
warded 8.07.19 - 08:02pm
Still doing some post-game farming and grinding. *
warded 8.07.19 - 08:03pm
Map 99.80 percent *
warded 9.07.19 - 12:55pm
Yep. The bookcases can crash the game when/if reading them the second time. First time works fine so memorize what they say. I think they are saved in the compendium, i think... 
*
warded 9.07.19 - 03:41pm
When shopping or visiting the alchemy lab all the passive skills that have visual inficators disappear. When talking to another NPC like Susie they come back. You can also make them reappear by switching them OFF and ON again (one by one)... Only one that you need to ''see'' is Detective's Eye. They are still active after they disappear from sight, mind you. *
warded 9.07.19 - 07:38pm
Sometimes enemies drop closed sacks that probably were meant to be drops, but the game is saying fkk you, you can't have any *
warded 10.07.19 - 04:06pm
Just hit 100 percent of the map. Got everything else at 100 percent too except weapons (currently 89.00) and Techniques (currently 09.52) yeah i haven't been using techniques much. Also got some shards to rank and grade up. *
warded 10.07.19 - 04:07pm
Oh yeah! PROTIP: Do not sell shards because their amount = grade. (9 max.) *
warded 12.07.19 - 01:26pm
Techniques at around 75 percent. I'm missing a few journal entries that come from reading bookcases and bookcases can crash the game *
masktiger 12.07.19 - 10:21pm
good jobs

Alchemic Bounty is a very useful yellow/grey shard skill. Saves time and money when dealing with 8-bit nightmare and various ''bitcoins''. Basically make 3 of a weapon, then dismantle the 2 extras for 32-bit coins and 8-bit nightmares. *
warded 13.07.19 - 12:51pm Just hit 100 percent items... That valkyrie sword, i would have never guessed where it was... Now i just have to get all techniques, currently at 76.19 *
warded 13.07.19 - 05:52pm
Techniques are limited to specific weapons... until you master them. Then they become usable to any weapon of that type. Example: Critical Swing is only useable by Thorn Whip, Snakebite and Albireo. After Mastering, it becomes available to Andromeda, Ambivalence etc. *
warded 13.07.19 - 08:55pm
It seems i already have all techniques. Just need to master them to increase the percentage count. (Currently 90.48) *
