Question about the 2 N64 Castlevania games.

Who do you prefer to play as? Carrie or Reinhardt? I prefer Carrie especially in the original game. That part in the 5th level where you have to carry the explosive item without getting hit is much easier with Carrie. If I got a dollar for every time I died as Reinhardt on that part because of getting hit by an enemy, I could buy a house.

In recent years though I have quit playing the original N64 game and have gone with the later N64 game Legacy of Darkness where the levels are all easier and the camera works better.
