I just finished Super Castlevania IV and it was quite friendly game
I also opened a thread when I finished Castlevania 1 and you showed a lot of "interest" in the thread because I used "save-state" :D. Thank you. Now I've just finished Super CV IV and that game was pretty easy. I didn't need to use save-states this time.

The first Castlevania game on the SNES. It has much more comfortable and fluid controls than the Castlevania games on the NES. The whip can now be swung in diagonal directions. It is now possible to change direction while jumping. The level designs and graphics are more vivid and creative with SNES technology. Also, we can now climb using the whip like a grappling hook. Boss battles are more player-friendly and less brutal than in the first three games.

What do you think about this game?

You didn't beat the game and probably never will.

What part of "I've beaten just about every CV on original hardware without save states or rewinding" didn't you understand?

Perhaps you should focus on the accomplishment of reading comprehension before worrying about video games.

Still waiting.

People call us toxic even though we are saying really basic facts.
I'm not even judging anyone too harshly but if you used save states then you have cheated.

Its the same as using a cheat code or a hack, really.

Though sometimes games are so bad and don't deserve to be played fairly ngl (Castlevania The Adventure for example)

if you beat them without cheating, rewind, save states, it's ok. But if use them after they launch some collection or whatever, you didn't beat the games again.

I'm certain people are devastated their runs don't meet with your seal of approval.

Sit down.

This is the same sort of scrub talk people who think fireballs are cheap in SF6 subscribe to.

Lets not compare multiplayer games to single player games.
Not to mention that using in game mechanics is different than doing things the game was never intended for. The only reason save states are in these collections is because these collections are competing with emulators.

So what? It's clearly intended by the developer, since it's a part of the game now.

I don't like using them either! *** SO I DON'T, AND PEOPLE WHO DO USE SAVE STATES AND REWINDING DO. NOT. AFFECT. ME. IN. THE. SLIGHTEST. ***

Sit. Down.

if it is intended, why it didn't exist back then?

Go back to the post where I told you to learn reading comprehension, and then re-read what I said, focusing on the word "now."

Sit. Down.

if you used those features, you didn't accomplish anything, and didn't beat the game. What else you can't understand?

I'll just accept this non-answer as your surrender, which I graciously accept, because there's only so many times I can own a clown before it gets old.

“Never play chess with a pigeon. The pigeon just knocks all the pieces over, then ♥♥♥♥♥ all over the board and struts around like it won.”
I think that described you a bit too well. You just ignore our points and keep rambling and insulting.

Honestly, I don't view beating video games as a massive accomplishment as some people do and I find it cringy when people do crazy challenge runs that take months to beat.

That being said, the fact that some people are so obsessed with this concept to the point that they have to pretend like they beat a game even though they cheated their way through it is baffling to me. There is no middle ground or argument, either you beat the game legit or you didn't. I've accepted that I'll never beat a game like Castlevania The Adventure legit because its way too bad for me to care about.

Indeed it's a much friendlier games. Games on Snes were much friendlier than the ones in the nes or for that matter the Mega drive.

Never forget this.

If the credits rolled, you literally beat the game.
