oh yeah it’s bad on there
I’ve seen them get basic information wrong on many many pages
either that or make up things the games never say and be like ‘ok but it was implied so we can say it’s fact’
they also absolutely refuse to accept that CV4 is a generally accepted as equal telling of CV1 because of the English manual story
like they made a whole different page for it separate from Simon’s main page never addressing that the Japanese manual is not like that!
fun fact! yes! the American manual is a different story because they marketed it as a sequel overseas to get it to sell!
I do think that manual should get its own page and an explanation of it because it is a different story on its own BUT
the original CV4 is just a retelling of CV1 the same way that Chronicles and X68000 are
shouldn’t the original manual be the thing that determines whether or not the game gets to be included on a character’s page and timeline
it’s not a Haunted Castle situation where even the director of it has said it’s not a canon game
why does Chronicles get to be on his page but CV4 doesn’t
this just screams bias to me which is not what a wiki is supposed to have at all
and don’t even get me started on the slurs oh my god does that make looking up anything so so so uncomfortable
slurs being in a media should not be handled lightly and then thrown around like as if the media gave you a ‘pass’
and honestly when did Castlevania use this slur I wanna know
cause if it was from like one bad English translation from the 80s I am going to turn them into a pile of worms—
please when you are getting information on a media take the original language version as the definitive version it should not be this hard
I don’t like Netflixvania but holy hell that rant is gross
I hate fandom wiki
please use Castlevania Crypt or something else anything is better than this
hell character profiles wiki and heroes wiki were more accurate in some spots 💀💀💀
