Metroidvania is a subgenre of video games focused on guided non-linearity and utility-gated exploration. The term, popularized by video game critic Jeremy Parish, is a portmanteau of Metroid and Castlevania.

This is a cloned community from Reddit. I intend to hand over mod support to the original mods should they choose to migrate to Lemmy.

That was a really tough fight! Harder than Sierpes for sure. My hands are shaking... In the end it helped me a lot a combo of Romance to the crimson mist and Big toe made of limestone. Plus fire defences.

Now I'll continue with Miriam challenges. Then I will finally fight Crisanta.

Edit: I beat the game with true ending and 100%. It was fantastic. I adore the visual style, music, bosses and the catholic mythos. Some people criticize the platforming (lamp jumping), but I didn't find it weird or anything. I highly anticipate the sequel now.
