I've been waiting for people to cover this game since release. This game is my favorite metroidvania of the last few years, and I loved Blasphemous/HK. Hopefully this sends new people to them.

[@tommapar]

I love the original God of Wars, but the new one's level design and combat is sooo good. I personally absolutely LOVE the fact that if you revisit areas after lowering the lake's water level you get to explore new places, and they're foreshadowed a long time before you can even access them with out of reach chests and items and enemies sometimes, it's awesome. It's feels like something right out of a metroidvania or a souls-game. Also those Valkirye fights holy hell

[@VanceAsagi]

“Killing spree lady” My nostalgia sense went into overdrive

[@AzzRushman]

I remember playing that game on its entirety. There are like three endings and two endgame paths to take (they all end at the same place). Every ending offers an end to the story while also explaining different sub-plots. I really liked that the endings aren't just a simple conclusion, but also an extra piece of information to figure the world lore out. If you people are as lazy as me, there's a way to unlock every ending within a single playthrough, you just got to do something in the prologue, and prepare extra save slots before the final fight (or before giving the cubes to the doc, if you also want to experience the other endgame path without replaying the entire game). If you do everything right, each ending will basically be gated by a single ez bossfight and a choise. It's a really good MVania, a bit easier tho, but the story was way better, and it felt good figuring it out.

It was decent for me, I did notice some of the bosses had AI that was pure dumbassery though. Once you get rid of the poison for the doctor, he's fine. Tree dude did me in more than him.
