Re: Bloodstained Is Officially Kickstarter's Most Successful Video Game Campaign

@Kirk "Then go prove otherwise".

I don't need to "prove" anything. You're criticizing the game's artwork based on a few mock up posters, when we have barely seen a thing. Then based on these very small tidbits, you say stuff like, "Not that they can't change/tweak it; and I really hope they do". lol, You hope they do? As if the game is anywhere near completion. That right there shows just how flawed your point of view is.

"Of course; you could just say I'm actually wrong and claim that as fact—but you'd just be lying to yourself lol".

You're wrong, and I claim that was fact. Want to know why? Because you're claiming your opinion as fact, based on small pieces of art work that are not even part of the official game. And you're using that as a basis to criticize something that will not be coming out until 2017.

@Kirk The devs needed help in getting money for the project, so that's what they got. And without the help of fans, there would not be material to show off. So it makes sense that the funds being raised come first. Now, some devs certainly do use the kickstarter funds as a way to cheat people over (Mighty No. 9 comes to mind). But as I said before, the man behind Castlevania has proven himself time and time again, so I doubt this will turn into a Mighty No. 9 scenario.

As for your comment on the artwork, every one has different tastes. Therefore, to act like your opinion is fact and say that "virtually every single person would pick your art style over the current" and that yours is better, is just arrogant. If you showed off your artwork and some people liked it better than Bloodstained, then fine. But let's be realistic. Not everyone would choose your artstyle over Bloodstained's. We all have different tastes. Besides; I actually found a video that shows some very early footage of gameplay from Bloodstained, which shows off the art style.

I think it looks great so far.

@Kirk It's time to be brutally honest. You complaining about the artstyle of the game, when the only thing we've seen are mock ups, is pathetic and arrogant. If you want to complain that Bloodstained's artwork does not appeal to you, I would suggest waiting until we get more footage. You have no idea how the final product (or even alpha and beta footage) will turn out, and saying stuff like "virtually every single person on the planet would pick my artistic direction over his", in regards to a man who has proved himself time and time again, is laughable.
