Basically just more Blasphemous, which is absolutely a good thing. The weapons and new customization stuff definitely help differentiate the game from the first, although I'm not sure I'd say I enjoyed this anymore than the original, I had just as good of a time with it, which again is perfectly fine. Very competent Metroidvania level structure which one of my favorite soundtracks of the year, probably would be my #1 if it weren't for FF16. Boss design honestly wasn't my favorite, I think I might give the edge to the first game in that regard but everything else was about the same if not a minor improvement.

8/10
