Yet another post in which it is noted how much shit Ubisoft sucks. Tangentially related to all the other shit at first, but branches off into its own thing very quickly, namely Skull and Bones and all the asininity surrounding it.

Really, with Ubisoft, Square Enix, EA, Epic, Activision Blizzard, Microsoft... at this point in time, does there exist any large video game company (or, in Microsoft's case, large company that just happens to dabble in video games) that doesn't suck shit? I can't think of a single one. Sony's done some pretty reprehensible shit in the past, so certainly not them. The only one that even comes close might be Nintendo, but even they've been starting to jump on the shitwagon along with all the other companies lately, too.

Castlevania: Nocturne

"Castlevania: Nocturne, a new Netflix animated series, is officially in production.

"The series is led by showrunner Kevin Kolde and Creator/Writer Clive Bradley and produced by Project 51 Productions with production services provided by Powerhouse Animation. Castlevania: Nocturne follows Richter, a descendant of the Belmont family, popularized in the iconic Symphony of Night and Blood of Rondo Castlevania games."

Huh...

Well, given that I only just happened to finish watching the original four seasons of the Netflix Castlevania series yesterday (I'd already watched the first two seasons a few years ago, but I watched them all over the past week or so), finding out about this now (even though this trailer is over a month old at this point) is pretty cool, I have to say.

The original series was like a weird mishmash of Dracula's Curse, Curse of Darkness, bits of Symphony of the Night (backstory and Alucard's design), and even faint shades of Lords of Shadow (in some of the other character designs, if nothing else). It was pretty cool. That said, I think I preferred the first two seasons to the second two, even though the latter ones weren't bad.
