On the Metroidvania topic:

Blasphemous. I just bought this today since its on sale and Holy shit man. I think I’m instantly in love. I think I’ll be on this all day lol. I am instantly drawn in by the artstyle alone.

Valfaris is a really good game that’s in the style of Metroidvanias. Plus it has music from ex-Celtic Frost members :triumph:

Man, Valfaris is an awesome one…it’s like if someone took various art concepts from your average 1980s heavy metal album cover art/t-shirt and made all of that into a game…and of course it’s awesome.

This is so fucking random…

I was searching youtube for Rush 2049 arcade videos and I came across this one.

Look who is the uploader of the video lol. How fucking random is that that I am looking at possibly getting a Rush 2049 cabinet, and Mr. Wizard just happens to have one. And he uploaded those videos like a month ago too, so I wonder if it’s new to him.

Jedi Fallen Order actually has some of the exploration qualities of a metroidvania type game, with gaining new abilities to access otherwise inaccessible areas. Love that shit.

Speaking of SWJFO, a friend of mine bought it on our shared account, i think i will give it a try later.

Hell yeah, man, it’s awesome!

Is it still pretty buggy?

Yeeeeaaaah… It can be a little buggy. But not so much as to ruin the game for me.

No not at all. I haven’t seen anything game breaking. But I might just wait till they can patch out some of the jank alongside a slight price decrease.

They’ve been releasing hot fixes and patches for Fallen Order since it’s release.

It’s in much better shape than it was but still pretty rough.

Source please!?

I’ve been wandering if there was a translation for this one.

Since video game remixes are in vogue I want a full scale remake of Legend of the Dragoon. Sony already had Medievil and Shadow of the Colossus remade. Give it to this one too.

the only thing legend of dragoon’s battle system needs is combo routes for the additions and multiple addition for the dragoon forms. or they can just use legaia 2’s system since it’s chillin in the dungeon with alundra
