We also discuss the gaming industry and video game tv shows & movies!

  1. Alucard's Bat Form & Familiars - Castlevania: Symphony of the Night 9

    05/21/2021

    Alucard's Bat Form & Familiars - Castlevania: Symphony of the Night 9

    Alucard returns to the Long Library once again, this time with a new ability: double jump! Using the Leap Stone, Alucard can now reach places he couldn't before in the library, which allows him to get the extremely useful Bat Form! The bat form really opens up the castle for Alucard, allowing him to explore like never before! He also gets his first familiar, the Fairy! We talk a little about the familiars and what they bring to the table. And we talk about the Lesser Demon, the boss of the Long Library. This poor pervert is probably the easiest boss so far, and we wonder how he wound up where he did in the game. And Sam takes us down a wild road as he tells us all about Chainsaw Man, his current obsession. All this and more in a Fan-bat-stic episode of One Stage at a Time!

    Alucard makes his way through the Colosseum in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night! We fight all sorts of challenging enemies and encounter some notorious rooms of peril. We also meet up with someone who could be the big bad of the game - Richter Belmont! Why is Richter calling himself the master of Dracula’s castle and trying to kill Alucard? We also discuss anime such as Macross and Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans! And we dive into the incredible number of items, specifically shields, and how you can use the Shield Rod with them to break the game! All this and more in this episode of One Stage at a Time!

    The Librarian Betrays Dracula: Castlevania Symphony of the Night 6 - The Long Library

    We reach the Long Library and meet the reclusive Librarian! Though reluctant at first, he almost immediately turns on his master, Dracula, to aide us in our quest! Who is this mysterious man lurking among the tomes and what exciting things does he have to offer? We also talk about magic spells! What complicated button combos allow us to straight up break the game? Alucard is a heckin’ wizard, baby! And we talk once more about Nintendo and their lack of a virtual console! Then for like two seconds we talk about the new Mortal Kombat movie! All this and a whole lot of gross jokes about the Master Librarian in this episode of One Stage at a Time!

    Alucard ventures into the Marble Gallery, where he meets a whole new set of enemies, including Audrey II and Sexy Lady Tails! Alucard also meets Maria for the first time in the giant clock room! There is a whole lot to discuss in this area, laying a lot of the groundwork for the rest of the game, so don't waste any time and get into it! We also explore the history of the man himself, Vlad the Impaler! We expand on his struggles and background, and find out why, exactly, he was such a stabby boy! So get ready for some real dark chuckles as we talk about his atrocities and how he got away with some madness! And keep a sharp ear out for a special guest, who was just way too intrigued by the mention of Matthias Corvinus! All this and more in a stab-tacular episode of One Stage at a Time!

    Dracula Lives in Hogwarts - Castlevania 2: Entrance

    We finally meet our protagonist, Alucard, as we play through the first section of the main game, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night! Alucard tears his way through some minions and confronts Death itself as he ventures forth into Dracula's Castle! His items are stripped from him and he must begin with nothing, Death taunting him as he goes. We discuss this first section, as well as speculate as to the nature of Dracula's Castle. We also dig into Alucard, the man-vampire himself, in the lore corner! Is he a true hero, or does he have some skeletons in his closet? Then Sam gives us his thoughts on the new Monster Hunter game, Monster Hunter: Rise for the Nintendo Switch! And lastly, we chuckle about the glowing, suspicious reviews that Balan Wonderworld is receiving!
