His victory animation has a lot of personality and he just seems like a good guy who didn't let his lifestyle mold his youngish personality too much. Some people are even more drawn to his blue flames. Richter is presented with a one line opener, a more colorful default palette and stylish outfit. I think it mostly comes down to presentation in the direct. From the perspective of someone who may have just heard about either of these characters from this direct: But I can piece together why he was undermined by Richter to a broader audience. "I can’t be the only one that thinks Richter fits in more with the smash roster than Simon, appearance wise I mean." ![]() Richter: Begone! Me: HELLO!" - Same thread. He looks way cooler than Simon for sure." - Another twitter comment. "I never played any Castlevania games, so when I saw Simon revealed I didn't care much for him. I guess it felt like shade to me, but when I'm wrong, I'm wrong :D ). (EDIT: I've been told the first two are mainly just expressions of preference. Simon Belmont is coming to smash "Hey that's pretty cool man" Richter Belmont is coming too btw "HNNNNNGH!" - Comment on GameSpot's upload of the reveal. Richter is way cooler than Simon." - Artist on Twitter and DeviantArt. "Sticking with the spooky October theme, here's two vampire hunters, or whatever. I don't want to provide links for the sake of the people who posted the comments just because this is the internet, and I don't want anyone to get bad messages or anything (not from you, I trust you I'm more concerned about other, less savory people). They're a minority, but it's annoying nonetheless. This is just me thinking that Simon's a bit underrated as of now.ĮDIT: So after doing some research, there seems to have been more love for Simon than I thought. I can see where you're coming from, and heck, I'll probably play as him from time to time! This isn't a guilt trip. Not sure.īTW, I'm not saying "go play as Simon" or "you shouldn't play as Richter." You do you and if you're into Richter, that's 100% awesome by me. Maybe it's nostalgia speaking, or I have a tendency to prefer original characters over ones that follow. He's defeated Dracula twice by himself, once while he was suffering under a curse (three times if you count SCIV, which is technically a remake). He has the best whip (from Super Castlevania IV). He was the one who introduced Castlevania to the world. But, I dunno, I feel Simon deserves a little better. Now if people prefer Richter, there's nothing wrong with that at all. However, I feel that Simon Belmont is getting quite the shaft. ![]() I only got to play Dracula X (sadly no access to Rondo of Blood, even though I really want to play it), but he felt very satisfying to play with a good moveset and good specials (his holy water sucks though best go with axe and boomerang cross). Now don't get me wrong Richter is freaking awesome! It was such a surprise to see him, and I'm super happy he's in. More often than not, I see everyone flocking over to Richter and sometimes even throwing shade at Simon. Maybe it's just me, but I don't see a lot of love for the original vampire hunter (yeah, Trevor was technically the first.or what is someone else, not sure). ![]() ![]() Man, I need to learn to internet better :P.Īnother EDIT: Wow, this post ended up getting a lot of replies! I'm sorry if I don't reply to them all. That was not my intent, and I hope I didn't open the floodgates to character bashing or something.
