Very fun game absolutely enjoyed it. I suck at parrying though, in any game, so I did kind of cheese the boss fights but still worth it overall.

This game is a very combat / parry focused metroidvania. I tried at the hardest setting (Legendary) but after a few bosses moved down one level to Warrior. On the pro side, I loved the bosses, with the last two in particular very difficult (for me) and taking a couple of hours. There's also good MV elements, some open-ended exploration such that you don't have to go just one direction, and it overall just played…

The game has potential, even if its just a worse Nine Sols essentially. Cant honestly recommend the game due to what other reviews has stated; long stretching hallways full of nothing and enemies that aren't even remotely interesting in design nor combat. Bosses are okay as they usually have simple moves, but some are just unenjoyable *cough Verita cough cough* and go on for way too long(again, Verita.) Unacceptable…
