Castlevania: Lords of Shadow: Difference between revisions

* [[Scenery Gorn]]: Later stages shows how far the influence of evil is displayed, from decaying corpses in an abandoned village to {{spoiler|the Land of the Dead, the very definition of [[Hell On Earth]]}}.

* [[Scenery Porn]]: To an absolutely ridiculous extent. A very early level, a swamp, may have you remarking upon how gorgeous the foliage is (and marveling that apparently the swamp is filled with the fallen corpses of ''green dragons''.)

* [[Screwy Squirrel]]: The Chupacabra for the player.

* [[Sequel Hook]]: After the credits, we see {{spoiler|Zobek meet with Gabriel, who is now Dracula, and ask him for help to stop Satan from returning. In return, he'll help Dracula finally die. And this takes place in modern times.}} Curiously, while this game is supposedly an [[Alternate Continuity]], it seems to be hinting at {{spoiler|the long-awaited 1999 incident mentioned in the Sorrow games.}}

* [[Sealed Evil in A Can]]: The Forgotten One from the DLC packs.

* [[Sensitive Guy and Manly Man]]

** The way the Chupacabras speak is also very Yoda-like.

** [[Mega Man X (Video Game)|What am I fighting for?]]

*** And we also have {{spoiler|Zobek}} as the [[Metal Gear|Big Boss]].

*** {{spoiler|Pan is Grey Fox, whose fighting style and personality is not dissimilar to Pan's.}}

*** From another scroll: A deceased knight mourns the death of two of his companions and vows revenge. The names of those companions? [[Day of the Tentacle|Sister Laverne and Brother Bernard]]. The log is signed H{{spoiler|oagy}}.

** The game's visual style is heavily influenced by the films of [[Guillermo Del Toro]], and several elements could be considered shout outs, from the appearance of Pan to the fact that the ghouls' lower jaws split open in a fashion identical to those of the Reaper Strain vampires in ''Blade II''.

* [[Snow Means Death]]: The castle is now constantly snowy and covered in ice.

* [[Start of Darkness]]: {{spoiler|For Gabriel, especially in the DLC.}}

* [[Swamps Are Evil]]: Goblins, trolls, poisonous bogs... and clingy naiads that have ''really'' let themselves go.

* [[Tall, Dark and Handsome]]: Gabriel. Even Zobek thinks so: "He's so dark, so beautiful".

* [[Villain Protagonist]]: {{spoiler|Gabriel is revealed to be Dracula after the credits.}}

* [[We Can Rule Together]]: Carmilla, [[The Vamp|as you would have probably expected]], makes this offer to Gabriel. She doesn't appreciate him turning her down. {{spoiler|Satan}} also offers this to Gabriel, but is quick to withdraw it when he refuses.

* [[Whip Sword]]: The Silver Warrior.

* [[Whispering Ghosts]]: Disembodied voices can be heard in The Dead Bog stage.

* [[Wicked Witch]]: Baba Yaga. {{spoiler|Sends Gabriel on a quest to assist in a spell that will make her a [[Hot Witch]].}}

** {{spoiler|Sadly, we never get to see this transformation.}}

* [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds]]: {{spoiler|Dracula}}.

* [[Worthy Opponent]]: {{spoiler|The Forgotten One calls Gabriel this.}}
