Are there any without the weird boob?

 

[silva1991]

I like character style 3 the most.

 

[Gbraga]

Are there any without the weird boob?

I actually think it looks a lot better now, I no longer have a problem with it. The ribbons are also pretty amazing. Loving the design now.

 

[UraMallas]

Character style 1, Background 3.

Man, it looks great. Didn't expect it to look this good.

 

[Inuhanyou]

The woman has huge tits. There is no weird boobage going on.

The flower is glass and apart of the story

 

[Wanderer5]

Are there any without the weird boob?

Better get used to it. There be different outfits I believe through.

 

[DeepEnigma]

I like character 3 and background 3.

Same.

 

[Mr. Smiley]

Really liking 3-3.

Regretting that I didn't fund.

 

[Maedhros]

Are there any without the weird boob?

What's weird about it?

They're huge. That's ok, I would prefer them bigger though.

 

[kewlmyc]

3/3 for me.

1/1 would also be cool.

 

[Olly88]

Really not a fan of the art style. It's a huge bummer that the "spiritual successors" to two franchises that I should be really looking forward to (Castlevania and Mega Man) are in the works and I can't get interested in either of them.

 

[NastyBook]

WOWZERS! Now that should put some of the fears to rest about this game's visual quality come release.

 

[Persona7]

This looks nice!

 

[Man-is-Obsolete]

Looking good. 3 and 3 for me as well.

 

[Tapejara]

Character style 3 looks gorgeous. I ended up picking style 1 for the background, but I'm fine with either/or.

 

[Smellycat]

3/3
Game looks amazing though. I hope they can keep up this level for the rest of the game.

 

[Tonza]

To me Character Style 1 is way better. Especially "ingame".

 

[Cheesyhobo]

People here are saying that Character 1 looks better in "gameplay", but that's a still screenshot. In motion it'll probably end up looking like Trine, very visibly "3D". Character 3 seems like it would come closer to pulling off the 2.5D look you get in Xrd.

 

[OricWindstar]

I'd honestly be fine with any of them. This is such a relief after Mighty No. 9.

 

[Dicer]

3 all day and all night, even thought I do kinda like 2 as well...

 

[Ryu bogard]

It looks so much better now. Voted for 3/3.

 

[bon]

I would go with 1/1. It looks the most Castlevania.

I like the background a lot!

Miriam looks great too, aside from the HUMONGOUS breasts of course (((( ;°Д°))))

wow slow down there Vanillaware, sheesh!

 

[liliththepale]

1/1, but 3/3 isn't bad. Certainly both are much better than most of what they've shown before.

 

[Arozay]

1 looks better, 3 looks more interesting.

 

[Sylverstone14]

Character Style 3, BG1 all the way. That look just stands out from the rest.

Are there any without the weird boob?

It's just a breast, dude.

 

[How About No]

Char 3, BG1 for me. Though I think both look nice

 

[John Rabbit]

Char 3/ BG1 or 3/3. that outlined look on the character is awesome.

 

[Elixist]

wow. i think some of us were beginning to wonder if we got mighty number nined with the graphics. big improvements.

 

[Krammy]

And character style 1 looks better on actual gameplay.

Style 3 is missing shadow, which is quite jarring for me. Perhaps it's due to the filters?

I was Character3/Background1 until I saw this post.

Character1 clearly has better shadows or contrast of shades, especially in a gameplay scenario where the camera is zoomed out, but I love everything else about Character3 (colour vibrance, cel shading). I left some feedback echoing this.

I think if the contrast or shadows were enhanced on Character3, even if it only happens when the camera is zoomed out for gameplay, that would be perfection!

 

[DXLelouch153]

I would go with 1/1. It looks the most Castlevania.

magic breasts
i dont gotta explain shit

 

[Zaventem]

When with Background 1 / Character 3. They really did get this a hell of an upgrade.

 

[Verder]

3-3

this will be amazing.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Oh man, this is really coming along

 

[foxuzamaki]

I would go with 1/1. It looks the most Castlevania.

Big boobs don't look great now?

 

[Already Torn]

This game was funded before I got around to looking at it but I wish I had funded it. I love the SotN style Castlevania games and this is looking really good!

 

[Manus]

Can't believe the love for 3 in here. The cell shading makes it look terrible like a PS2 Dragon Ball Z game. The character also clashes so badly with the background. 1 all the way.

 

[Rymuth]

Looking Damn good.

Character 3, for sure. Gonna have to see the pics on my computer before deciding on the background.

 

[Sevyne]

Thank god you are likely in the minority.

 

[Foffy]

Wow, what a massive visual improvement to what we saw a few weeks ago.

 

[Candescence]

I'm more partial to Background 1/Char 3. Love the cel-shading, which works a lot better for her character style.

 

[Nocturno999]

I liked 2 better. Looks "more natural", no idea how to say it.

 

[ShogunDarius]

3/3 here though I think the chandelier looks better in 1

 

[Crocodile]

At first I thought it would be SNAP Shader 3 for the character but I'm really warming up to Shader 1 for the character........

This will be a tough choice

 

[Pinko Marx]

Character style 3 is definitely the way to go here. I could go either way on the backgrounds.

 

[Timeaisis]

Char 3, bg 1. Background 3, while pretty, looks like it can clash with the character a lot.

 

[BubblegumCrisis]

Thank god you are likely in the minority.

There is a reason artistic descisions like this are usually made in-house by a select few and not left up to the general populace. The average person by and large are too easily persuaded by anything bright and shiny, regardless if its thematically cohesive or not.
I hope the dev team dont make any hasty descisions based on poeples jump reactions and actually do what is right for the games' artistic integrity.

Well they can't make up their mind in the dev studio either. Hopefully they'll just ship it with different shader presets if there's enough want for the different styles so everyone can be happy

 

[Hentailover]

Can't they just make them selectable in options? You know to appease both people with taste, picking Char Style 3 and objectively wrong people picking Char Style 1 (it looks like when you rip the model from another game and put it it into Gmod... just plain flat textures... How can you prefer that? )

Considering IGA wants the game to have a 2.5D art style not unlike Guilty Gear Xrd, the 3rd shader for the character is obviously ideal.

 

[T.O.P]

Goddamn this is lookin fantastic
