So about Dracula's original/classic design

[Hagane_no_Saiyajin]

I just think it's misleading to call it his original design because that design, according to the gallery here that design comes from Castlevania IV, the remake, in the original Castlevania Dracula has this design:



The first image, fyi is from the Akumajō Dracula Perfect strategy guide, a Japanese source, NOT ENGLISH!!

And also maybe look at Castlevania I cover art, does Dracula look anything like the 'classic' image we have for him?

Dracula

For other uses, see Dracula (disambiguation). Count Vlad Țepeș Dracula (ドラキュラ・ヴラド・ツェペシュ, Dorakyura Vurado Tsepeshu?), formerly known as Mathias Cronqvist (マティアス・クロンクビスト, Matiasu Kuronkubisuto?), is the primary antagonist of the Castlevania series, as well as the final boss of most of the games...

I know this may not be all that important, but misinformation spreads like wildfire and I thought I should bring this up

What do you think about this?

 

[Bobsican]

I'm neutral on this, as classic Castlevania is unexplored territory for me.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. Thank you for responding.

If it's not accurate, the simple solution is to replace it then. Not a big deal.

 

[Antvasima]

Well, I wanted to verify with members who have some knowledge about Castlevania.

That's what I tried before, it just got replaced with the IV picture instead

 

[Antvasima]

Well, I suppose that it should be fine to replace the image now then. Please remember to link to this thread in the edit summary box for the page.

 

[Hagane_no_Saiyajin]

Okay, I made the edit

 

[Dino_Ranger_Black]

Well, I should note that despite the numerals, the Castlevania games takes place in different time periods. So, that's also probably the reason for the change.....though, Castlevania III and Lament of Innocence takes place before Super Castlevania IV and original can also be applied to Castlevania 1 as well. So, no issues here.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. Thanks for helping out.

Should I close this thread then?

 

[Bobsican]

Yeah, go ahead, if anyone finds an issue, they're more than welcome to do another CRT

 

[Antvasima]

Okay.
