“Finished throwing myself with claymore at Devouring maiden(it was super hard and not in a good way) Then got into undergound sky castle which would be fine if not for totally dark[devoid of light] abandoned mine which is above mentioned…”
“If you like metroidvanias - can try it, it's not the worst. But the game is not the best either. It still has some bugs, balance issues, some bosses are just a chore at max difficulty. Lost me near the end. There are better games out there…”
