There is one loose end that I'm surprised no one has brought up - Bernhard Metals, LTD. I think a good sequel, playing along predictable lines, would be to have Dracula and Alucard (and perhaps drop in a 'distant relative' Belmont named Leon, Julius, etc.) and have them all team up to defeat a Bernhard decendant - maybe exploring different play styles, like Dracula's Curse or SotN did. It would be a good excuse to explore the back history of the Toy Maker too (let's leave Carmilla dead though - killed her too many times already). I liked the idea above about exploring why Marie keeps coming back too. Since we have already used Satan, why don't we play with daemon summoning as a starter, and go into the war between Heaven and Hell? If the Light counterparts of the Lords of Shadow are dead, maybe God is in a bit of a pickle...

As for gameplay, LoS feels more 'modern' than the 2D style of MoF. I love the combat cross and 3D play. I think LoS2's open world was a good idea, but poorly delivered; perhaps a 'world map' and 'area' design would compartmentalize the gameplay better and not make navigation so damn confusing.

Reactions?
