Arcane & Castlevania changed my mind about video game adaptations

[breakfuss]

Recently finished Arcane:LoL on Netflix and am still like, goddamn...!!! It easily ranks among the best shyt I watched in 2021. The animation is crazy and must've been stupid expensive. The writing and plot are dope. And to think I would've never given it a chance had other people not been so insistent. So then I thought to give Castlevania a chance and it's equally as good. I'm feeling dumb for holding off so long. I guess the Witcher will be next after I finish Castelvania. Now I'm wondering if I need to give LoL (the game) a chance even though I don't do MOBA type shyt. Is the lore really this interesting or was this just like some really well written fanfic stuff? Same with Castlevania. I played a few GBA and DS games but, damn, Konami hitting like this ?

Arcane is up there with spiderverse for me in terms of animation

I haven't seen Arcane yet but Castlevania is fire.

Exactly what it reminded me of. I hope more studios start working with this style but I'm guessing it's more expensive.

Indeed. It honestly has me wanting to play Castelvania. Didn't know the story was this engrossing. And the fight scenes crazy.

I want to say I've seen this but I might be thinking of the cartoon series. Looks dope though. I wasn't singling out animated shyt btw, just meant generally we've gotten some bad adaptations (mostly live action) over the years. Some of it's watchable...but these Netflix joints is like top-tier shyt and I'm shocked at how good they've been.

Yea, I'm a Castlevania stan, ever since 1987.

You may just have to settle on The Blu-ray, it’s on Amazon for $23.

If the next castlevania game ain’t on par with the story telling or visuals of the Netflix series then it will be a disappointment off the jump.
