Now this is what I'm talking about. I couldn't remember much of the first game, nor did I play Wounds of Eventide, but I ended up really enjoying the second game; enough that I 100% it.

I wouldn't say this is my favorite Metroidvania series (Hollow Knight, Super Metroid, and Aria of Sorrow still come way before this one), but I still enjoyed my time. The story ain't it for me; its a little too out there and the heavy religion-adjacent themes aren't really that interesting outside the NPC and character designs, but someone out there probably thinks this is entirely their shit and I'm happy for them.

Overall, I'm looking forward to what this studio puts out next, whether they go for Blasphemous 3 or try something different.
