15+ hours and I had to quit playing because it started clicking some weird addiction in my brain and I didn’t want to harm myself. I spent more than 100 hours this year with Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth and this game is 100% like a Yakuza mini-game. I had more than enough, but the game is great. If you like management sims mixed "hunting action" with an interesting narrative. It is the always engaging "there is always something to do" kind of game.
SOTN + Blasphemous with a plain repetitive flavour. Nice sprites & nice parries. The bosses are really good. Not bad at all, just a "solid 7" in my opinion. I may pick it up later, but after 3-4 hours it got a bit boring. However, not everything is the game's fault. There's certainly some genre fatigue from my part (and from the gaming community, I guess). The Metroidvania genre had an unbelievably solid and healthy resurrection during the last 7-9 years but I'm afraid we are in a kind of "end of the cycle" zeitgeist.
Maybe if Moonscars came out in 2017 things would have been better for it.

The finish date is just for the sake of the record. This game is an infinite work of art. Arguably, one of the best M2 ShotTriggers release (with ESP Ra.De. , in my opinion). There was a time where Cave were gods. Now they mostly live of licensing stuff (unfortunately, some of them only in Japan, like every M2 gourmet port), but their legacy is immortal.
