MOTHERFUCKER:

"Bloodstained stars Miriam, an orphan stuck in the middle of "a classic tale of magic, or rather faith and belief, versus science," Igarashi told me through a translator. A group of alchemists, fearing its waning relevancy as science captures the 18th century setting, try to warn against the world losing faith. Start fucking loving science, they warn, and a bunch demons will take over. When that doesn't happen, egg on face, the alchemists start fusing demonic crystals into orphans to call the demons to earth, attempting to instigate a global annihilating "told ya so.""

This entire set up represents how the franchise diverted its attention from being based around faith in favour of alchemy as a means to appeal to Japanese audience. Fullmetal Alchemist was popular at the time, so they had the Belmonts' power stem from alchemy as opposed to being holy warriors of the church. This went on as more and more of the games started dabbling in a pseudo-scientific backstory and setting as opposed to being about the occult.

Holy hell, does the man take notice of those nuances.

WHAT ABOUT NINTENDO?

Our budget left us with two
options: Build the biggest, most beautiful game we can, or make sure it
runs everywhere from the start. As things stand today, we can't afford
to create the two separate versions of this game that would be necessary
to make it run on every console. That said, we've heard legends about a
remarkable treasure hidden in the castle basement..."

It's 90% funded by a publisher, and the kickstarter is to prove to the publisher that there is worthy interest in an inavania game
