Talk:Castlevania: Lords of Shadow/Archive2

Non-Canon vs Separate Timeline

 * Originally posted by The Traveller on Reinhart77's talk page

Hi there! Sorry to bother you, but I didn't know where else to ask this. I notice that several pages on the CV Wiki refer to Lords of Shadow as "non-canon", as well as characters like Gabriel. Now, while it's obviously true that Lords of Shadow is not part of the original canon, the fact that it is published by Konami and dominates the official Castlevania website makes it clear that it's the real deal. So I guess basically what I'm asking is who decided that our policy on Lords of Shadow is that it's not canon? I know Dave Cox is on record as saying "it's not canon", but I believe he meant that it's not part of the existing timeline. And it seems likely to me that the Lords of Shadow storyline is here to stay.--The Traveller 19:47, January 24, 2011 (UTC)

yes, i have David Cox's quote "it's not cannon" in my mind whenever i use the term "non-canon". it's certainly not canon to the rest of the timeline, which is probably not finished yet. "non-canon" is the shortest way to describe what entities in LoS are to the rest of the timeline, anything else gets rather wordy. it's not inaccurate to call it non-canon. but yes, calling it non-canon does seem to "diminish" it, and perhaps it doesn't deserve to be diminished. it's all about how you choose to look at it. should everything else non-cannon be called non-canon, but anything LoS related be dubbed as "Lords of Shadow continuum" or "timeline"? i'm thinking there might be one or two more games in the Lords of Shadow storyline, and then it will be done. but it could last beyond my expectations and could be a seed from which many things sprout. --Reinhart77 06:20, January 25, 2011 (UTC)
 * I like to think of it as the LoS universe, a 'reboot' timeline, as its been described by Cox and others on the team. I think what Cox meant was its 'not part of the original canon', but that's not to diminish its importance!Baggins 06:41, April 10, 2011 (UTC)

The voice actors are so much better in the Japanese version. Nagumo baby 17:56, April 19, 2011 (UTC)
