I finally quit after playing at least the half of it. Just couldn't force myself to continue anymore. Awful combat, uninspired enemies, clunky controls, awful platforming, bad map connections, TOO MANY puzzles, meaningless upgrades mostly, AWFUL voice acting. I especially hated how they implement the discovering new areas with puzzles instead of satisfying skill upgrades. I don't want to solve puzzles all the time! When I play a metroidvania I want to know that if I upgrade enough previous areas feel like a breeze and I can continue new ways. It's not like that in here. Also map is overwhelming and cryptic. Too hard to remember which thing was where and that's a really annoying thing for a metroidvania.
Sad thing is art design and lore has so much potential. Story is intriguing enough too.
Another wasted potential which I really come across a lot in recent years with indies.
I really want some Hollywood studio to buy this and turn it into a big budget series or movie. It could be great
