i play games sometimes
if the order seems random, that's probably because it is
the favorites will change a lot, and they will probably not make sense, recency bias is dumb
slap a nice day

Super Castlevania IV is just a game I wish I liked more. And I can't even truly explain why. The graphics are awesome for such an early SNES game, it's really impressive, and the visual details are pretty cool. The music, I see it as an acquired taste. At first, I didn't enjoy it, I didn't really get the appeal. I don't love it now, but I can appreciate it much more. And Treasury is STILL the best song in the game. I don't need to say this, it's already been said a hundred times before, but the atmosphere is great, and the music definitely adds to that. I like the new additions and mechanics, such as mid air control, 8-direction whipping, whip swinging (this is my favorite), flaccid whip (kinda wish this could've been mapped to L button or somethin though), etc, etc. Now let's get to the bad parts. First of all, this isn't really part of the game, this game is HELLA overrated. Second, the level design is not good. Third, this isn't something I find that big a deal as other people, but the weapon balancing is weird, too (whip good, cross good, everything else SUCKS). Fourth, ALL OF STAGE 8. And you may think, "These complaints seem minor for the game to get a 6/10 rating." And to that, I would agree. As I said before, I don't really know how to explain why I dislike this game, I just do. Consider me a member of the Super Castlevania IV haters. This game, frankly, isn't that super.
Also...what the hell? Why does everyone say this game is easy? Definitely one of the hardest Classicvanias I've played, second to probably Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse.

I'd be lying if I said I didn't love this game. Everything about this game is done incredibly: the story, the music, the fourth wall breaks (if you don't know what I'm talking about, play the game, you'll be in for a treat), and especially, the overall presentation, which was especially amazing to me. The only reasons I'm holding off from rating this a 5/5 is because of the gameplay (I personally didn't find it that bad, once you get used to it, and the bosses used it in such creative ways anyway) and the fact that apparently 2 and 3 are BETTER. THEY'RE BETTER? WHAT DO YOU MEAN THEY'RE BETTER
