All things considered, are the fine people of this thread as unhappy with Castlevania Requiem as Diamond Feit was?
Reads far too uncharitable to me. The Dracula X Chronicles version of Symphony was then more than a decade long in the tooth and is at this point almost 15 years old, so no matter what one's opinion on the most substantial changes in the new script and voice acting (I'm not wild about them), there's been plenty of time to at least come to terms with them--the collection allows playing the game with Japanese VA which remains as is, regardless. The emulation hickups are ultimately minute and the games look far, far better on modern displays than they did on the PSP, so long as the messily implemented post-processing filter settings are left alone. Absent of some kind of original hardware and/or CRT solution, Requiem is a very good option to play both games on current platforms, unless one's affinity for Symphony is tied very strongly to Blaustein's PS1 localization and the voice acting therein. My Life in Gaming's analysis on the various options available is worth consulting, for their segment on this release in particular and otherwise.
