Incredible game.
Whoever skipped it due to 4chan making shit jokes about the MC... You are missing on a legit game.
Fast and responsive gameplay, weapons that feel different from each other AND that get subtypes and upgrades that in cases actually change how the weapon behaves, not just random "+1% dmg to undead while burning", fantastic music, pristine atmosphere...
Also barely no permanent upgrades, you get to keep your metroivania unlocks which allow you to explore more rooms in each biome so you might get more powerful and you also get permanent more trinket slots, but no passive stats, so if you want to advance in the game you have to get better and .... you do, you will get better. You will go from struggling with the first boss to clear several biomes in a single run.
My only (two) gripes with the game were that there was no reason to tell the story on such a convoluted, open, and obscure manner, game would have benefitted from a more straight narration; and that once you finish the game the first time is hard to do repeat runs. That last one might be a "me" problem as i dont really enjoy roguelites or roguelikes or whatever.

Fuck what a fantastic game.
