Johnny vs. Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin (AD-FREE)
Added 2025-10-12 02:17:25 +0000 UTC
I've wanted to cover this game for a long time, and I'm happy to finally sink my teeth back into it. It's the celebration of Castlevania's 20th Anniversary, the second DS title, and one of my favorites in the series. But, it is far from perfect. Oh dear God, no. Let's talk Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin!
A lovely thank you to Michaela Laws for providing the voice of Charlotte. Check her Bluesky here: https://bsky.app/profile/vamichaelalaws.bsky.social
I still got a lot of rust to shake off, but I'm warming up those animation muscles again.
Always appreciate the animated bits 😁

Holy hell, that female Axe Armor design would fit right in as a unit in Final Fantasy Tactics. Though she'd need to ditch the nose.

You know, slamming yourself against the roof as a way of movement was definitely not what I was expecting in this video, but I now know it was something I needed in my life.

12:54 This disorienting back n forth between top and bottom reminds me of the game Chronos Twins, that I never beat for the same reason.

Add this to my pile of evidence that Johnny’s best reviews are on games he truly loves and enjoys. Several of these gags and outbursts had me in stitches!

I was fixing to say the same thing. Made my eyes hurt a bit.

Fun Fact: Liam O'Brien voiced Gill in Street Fighter 5.

Steam Achievement. It was my first playthrough on Dominus Collection.

Awe was nice to see the callback to your Richter animation!
Also I just beat PoR a couple months ago AND NO ONE TOLD ME THE SUB WEAPONS COULD GET STRONGER 😭 I was struggling so damn much and now I know why. I used the knife and axe a couple times and was like "Oh this damage output sucks and that auto aim whip is godlike."

Liam o Brian voices the main character here is this where he gets his inspiration for his character in critical role? Also I just got recently into DND so that explains why I know that.

Go figure I was just wondering when was the last review (not as a rush thing though), but you had a damn good reason to take your time
Also Regarding the Belmont gap thing, I believe the in universe story is that because of the Nostradamus story (and half implied/half stated richter being controlled), they really did just peace out. That said, I like to know imagine it is just them being in on a scam.
28:18 holy shit I was not expecting that

Hey John there’s some weird stuttering going with specifically Castlevania 1 an Super Castlevania IV footage you might wanna look into that before the YouTube release

This was my first Castlevania game and I have played it to death and back. I absolutely adore it and play it basically annually just for fun.
