Would I like this game if I hate platforming?

platforming is very minimal, only true ending requires any kind of difficult platforming, its more about exploration (without much platforming) and bosses

Why are most metroidvanias boring asf?
I like castlevania games but these indie games that call themselves "metroidvanias" fucking suck.

Half the game is platforming, so probably not

Just because something doesn't use pixel art doesn't mean it is minimalist.

Yes, don't listen to retards who say otherwise
There's real difficult platforming in the game but it's only there as a hidden side challenge that doesn't even give you an achievement or unlocks upon completion, totally optional

The game has no meaningful upgrades/power ups. If they focused on the action platforming aspect instead of trying to shoehorn in the metroidvania part, it would've been better.

The game is like $10. Buy it, play for two hours, if you lack the manual dexterity to jump onto a platform return it.

It's a platformer game. If you hate platforming, then you'll hate it.
I don't know why Hollow Knight fags constantly try to trick people into playing their game, but that's what they're doing to you right now.

It has some precision platforming but it's optional. It's a lot more exploration and combat focused. Still, if you're a completionist you're going to get frustrated at a couple parts.

No. Even the most liked boss battles heavily rely on good platforming senses. Exploration platformers (or metroidvanias for trannies) literally are not built for you. Play something else

Areas are both vertical and horizontal. So if you considering holding left or right and pressing jump, platforming, then yes there's a lot of platforming.
Following, many of these sections are full of enemies, so it helps to be able to jump accurately while fighting.

Besides that, there are only like 4 sections I can think of that require any actual platforming (AKA long lengths of timing jumps and abilities), all of which become much easier the more abilities you lock, almost all of which are optional anyway.

Minimal platforming. This is as difficult as it gets. Mario is harder than this. And Mario is a game for literal toddlers.

It's the lamest, weakest stage1 platforming imaginable right out of a pre-mario 8bit shovelware game. HK is impressively overrated

That's still platforming, you bug-brained retard. You don't even know why OP hates platformers so bringing up difficulty doesn't matter.

That analogy doesn't even make sense. Being able to choose a custom skin does not define an RPG. Jumping from platform to platform is what defines a platformer (hence the name)

No, as someone who's doing their first real playthrough right now its very heavy on the platforming. As an example every time you hit spikes you lose a heart and have to go back to the beginning or a checkpoint. A lot of the heart and mana level up pieces are behind platforming sections where a single mistake can be disastrous. If you don't like platforming you're going to really hate sections of the game.

motherfucker, there is an entire section underneath the capital city where every single fucking wall except a few spots are spikes and you have to wall jump and wall slide or restart.
