The clip comes from the opening of Castlevania Symphony of the Night, released in 1997, where Richter Belmont confronts Dracula in his throne room. Dracula asks what is a man, throws his wine glass aside, and calls man a miserable little pile of secrets before the boss fight begins. The awkward, theatrical voice acting became famous among players, was quoted and remixed for years, and turned the line into a lasting gaming meme used whenever someone wants mock philosophical drama.

Dracula's 'What is a man' line from Castlevania Symphony of the Night, complete with shattering glass, used for dramatic reveals and meme edits.
A deep, theatrical male voice delivers the line 'What is a man' with slow, contemptuous emphasis, immediately followed by the sharp crash of shattering glass. The delivery is grandiose and old fashioned, like a stage villain beginning a monologue, which makes the short clip feel far bigger than its two seconds. That contrast between serious Shakespearean tone and sudden glass break creates instant drama and dark comedy. Viewers recognise it as a challenge and a put down at once, priming them for a rant, a reveal or an over the top argument that follows.
