I've been looking for Metroidvania recommendations for awhile now. Watched a lot of videos, but yours one is probably the best. Its not just because of the games in the list, but simply because of how you made the video itself. You gave specific timestamps, showed the title of the game on screen, added personalized key-points of the game and also showed some game-play clips. Not to mention the games themselves are very unique. Perfect way to make a top-game recommendation video. Subscribed!

I hate how “it’s hard” is now basically the metric for how good these games are. I’m a casual gamer who works for a living and I don’t have time to master these next to impossible punishing gauntlets. Symphony of the Night is my favourite “Metroidvania” it was the perfect balance of challenge without being a frustrating bang your head against the wall experience. By today’s standards though, that game is for babies.

I like souls games but I've yet to find a single "souls like" game I really love. It's like they decided to make something even harder than Dark Souls without putting any thought into if they actually should. With that being said, most of my favorite recent Metroidvanias do have adjustable difficulty.

Moonscars is not bad, I kinda don't like the Dark Souls Hardness because I was hoping for something... more like Castlevania. But its fun to play. The last Faith is awesome. Makes really much fun, it's not too hard and reminds me on Symphony of the Night. And the Art is really great. Aeterna Noctis is what I'm playing now. Its also fun to play, but sometimes a bit too slow. But the Characters are really good and enjoyable. Laika: Haven't played yet Afterimage is one of my favorite "newer Metroidvania" It was awesome. A lot of different abilities and a really beautiful world. Prince of Persia ... I was sceptic at first. But damn, this one turned out really great. Its awesome for fans of the old games, the even older games, and new fans Ender Lilies... I loved the first game with my whole heart and also love the new one too- One of my all time favorite Metroidvania Ori - Its beautiful, its pretty, its fun. But feels more like a plattformer then a metroidvania Carrion - Thats a really interesting game. Something new and fresh. Had a lot of fun with this one Blasphemous 2 is for me... like the first one, too much of Dark Souls.. but still a good game.

Really happy to see GRIME in here. Beautiful and monstrous world, atmosphere and grandiose music. Hoping GRIME II can deliver as well. Was hoping to see Cookie Cutter on here too. It's not outright groundbreaking, but nonetheless feels good to play. And has a *real* stand-out style. 2D hand animated and very colorful dystopian cyberpunk/sci-fi planet. Solid atmosphere too with a good soundtrack to go with it. Has five different weapons total, ranging from a big fist to an electric guitar, two weapons of which are optional to find, plus a variety of other abilities by way of "spells" and a quick push-away move that has double utility for light "puzzles". And the "spells" are powered by a meter that fills up by simply hitting enemies with normal attacks, which looks and feels good and smooth. Like a 2D beat-em-up. The lead dev, Stefano Guglielmana, been at it for about six years and only in the last two years was he able to get a proper dev team together of about 14 people. And had to learn how to manage a team. He also, according to interviews, went over more than a 100 interviews with dev studios before he found one that was comfortable with letting the product be the way it is, without interfering to make it "safer for marketing" or something. Cookie Cutter is his baby and it shows. He's currently working on making CC as technically solid as can be, and hopes to support it in substantial ways going forward. From entirely new characters and quests to full-on weapons, areas, bosses and story elements. Well worth spreading the word on and looking into.

i don't know about Astlibra but i 100% agree about Afterimage, i have like ten hours and it is so long and so boring from my point of view, i just can't play it until it's done. I love Metroidvanias even if i didn't liked very much the first Blasphemous (the second one and The last faith are way better) but i just can't like Afterimage. My favorite licence is Castlevania and i just can't compare it to Afterimage. the camera angle is larger, there are combos, a competence tree (i don't know how to say it in english), souls like elements. Afterimage is a Metroidvania, of course it is inspired by Castlevania but that's about it.

I completed Afterimage, but I have had no interest in replaying it.

Yeap Ori is up there. New Metroid Dread is really good. It sounds crazy to say this out loud by play the new Prince of Persia game and tell me on what aspect it is not at the same level with Hollow Knight. Boss fights, puzzles, platforming (oh god the platforming), sound effects, visuals, and an actual story with voice acting. It is a through-and-through triple-A experience in Metroidvania format.

It’s hard = Souls-like. False. Mega Man and any other NES titles fit the bill and came first with boss battle patterns.

I usually strap a pillow to my butt when I play any of these games. It takes the edge off when they kick my ass

I realize visuals aren't everything (at least I try and tell myself that) but I tried to get into Grime but I was bored to death by the bland, bare-bones graphic design. But watching this video I'm seeing some pretty well designed enemies and bosses. Maybe I need to give it another try.

ASTLIBRA Revision is my favourite of 2022 and after 30 years of gaming still proably in my top 10 or even top 5 games over all. But it is definitely NOT a metroidvania. It is as much a metroidvania as power wash simulator or GTA 2.
