Konami making new Castlevania Pachinko feat. EROTIC VIOLENCE

Not really, but I couldn't resist.
 
I think is more like the "genre", like in the Tales of games.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure Nier was advertised before launch as being an "erotic violence" game, for example.

The original king has to be manga and TV creator Go Nagai, however. One long-ago version of Mazinger was advertised as "Hypersexual Psychoviolence!".

"Erotic Violence" sounds pretty rape-y.

What an incredible misstep.

It's really not that outrageous. Let's not act like the old Hammer horror films that Castlevania took some inspiration from didn't thrive on eroticism and violence to sell tickets. This just isn't done as well is all.
 
Konami jokes aside, if at all, this is sticking closer to the genre.

Vampires = erotic violence

Not really that absurd.

Also, pachinko. Who cares.

Pretty much. I bought an Ayami Kojima art book a couple years ago and there's some interesting stuff in there to say the least.

I now want a vampire game with a 60's pulp horror aesthetic.

If you had told me years ago that the fun little action-adventure game I was playing would become pornographic gambling, I would have shut off the game right then and there.
