Read moreI totally love this game. Got it on sale today, I only expected to play for an hour or so but I really got in the groove and lost track of time for 2 or 3 instead. Combat, platforming, visuals, it all feels great. Pacing is absolutely perfect so far. Difficulty is similarly in the perfect zone for me—I keep juuuuust making it to the bonfire-equivalent before I die, and beat each boss in 1-3 tries so far, so it must be tuned exactly for my level. No idea how far in I am, and my free time to play games at this moment is a little unpredictable due to work stuff—but unless something dramatically changes, expect a glowing review once I get through it.

I was really looking forward to jumping into the new content, but alas, here I am without power, slowly sweating to death instead. My phone battery isn’t doing much better. Another cherry on 2020’s poop sundae.
I hope y’all enjoy this one for me. Did they make platforming/backtracking easier?

Ooh, the new DLC comes with a brand newly recorded Spanish VO. That’s pretty exciting.
There’s also lots more content, including a harder New Game+

How to kill a good game? Give it bugs and lagging controls. My left stick decided that up and down are not necessary for this game, and nothing could fix that.
Status AndrejBadilla Jun 4, 2020
The game has very serious mechanics problems, so serious that they end up frustrating and discouraging the player. While the game is called nonlinear, it is actually just confusing. (...) El juego tiene gravísimos problemas en las mecánicas, tan graves que terminan frustrando y desincentivando al jugador. Si bien el juego se denomina no lineal, en realidad es sencillamente confuso.

This Castlevania-like was super brutal, with a lot of frustrating repeated walks to killer bosses, but I’m glad I saw it through!

If anyone is interested, the Limited Run sale of Blasphemous is on now, and the Collector's Edition sale starts at 6PM EST today. Looking forward to playing this once it ships.

After the shitshow that was Exposito (which I cheesed to heck), I am happy to report that both Quirce and Crisanta were a lot of fun. It is final boss time, and this is officially a game I like a lot.

I miss Esdras. Boss baby is awful. I don't even think I am improving.
Status Please...callmeYork Nov 3, 2019
My most recent google searches are "can't beat esdras" and "blasphemous esdras impossible"
I jumped up out of my seat and joyously threw my hands in the air when I finally killed that bastard.
