That is a silly request. Not everyone likes that taste of music so that would be left out in the du... I mean yes, please do so.

Yes, I've beaten the game and have gone through the three different paths to get the three endings. Everything is the same as the version on Steam which I usually play on.

There are a couple differences/glitches I've noticed between the DC version and Steam version. The transition from the level to the boss fight experiences a one second slow down while the boss level loads. This is nothing major but if you are doing a speedrun it might throw you off because you have to adjust for the slow down.

There is a glitch in the cut scene when you enter World 6 -Fafnir's Tower. In the cut scene if you have it zoomed out the World 5 background shows, it should be blacked out. Again this doesn't affect anything it's just a messed up visual on the cut scene.

Those are the only things I've noticed, everything else is exactly the same as my Steam version.

And just to brag a little here is a screen shot of my best time beating Volgarr on Path of the Valkyrie on the Steam version. One life, no death. :D

That all depends. Is it done by Dio or Killswitch Engage? I just want some input before I ever get the chance to play it with the game on mute so I could see which would work best.

No, you've just gotten spoilt rotten & lazy over the last 15 years. Back in the day EVERY game used to be this hard (try making it past lv 2 in Ghosts 'n Goblins or the first Castlevania if you think Volgarr is hard), then Sony came along, making gaming mediocre (not to say casual or even easy) to sell more games & thus spoiling it for everybody...
