I totally agree with you on all points. Metroidvanias are my go to game because of the focus on gameplay. I have played most of the games you mentioned most recently beating ori and the Will of the whisp, and prices of persia: the lost crown.
@@kylegantert4568 thanks for checking out the video and for the comment! Nice! I didn't enjoy the second ori as much as the first but it's still a gorgeous game!
Metroidvanias are alright, most can’t do them right, if you’re not finding good games you’re not looking hard enough. Kunitsu Gami: Path of the Goddess was a very original and genuinely great game I haven’t seen many people talk about despite them constantly crying about games not hitting the same. They’re out there
I don't like most metroivanias because.... i get lost. I unlock some new ability and have absolutely no clue where I have to go to progress the stupid game. And so then i'm running around and of course all the mobs have respawned so now i'm annoyed and bored. And for some inexplicable reason the maps are always intentionally vague, if there is a map at all. This has happened with both Hollow Night and Monster Sanctuary. I stopped playing them pretty quick because I had no clue where to go and couldn't be bothered to look it up. Amazing gameplay for both games but because traversal is such a chore it doesn't work.
@@SteveBarna you should try Prince of Persia! It has a setting where it will highlight on the map places yii can now access when you get a new movement ability
you should give hollow knight another go your seriously missing out on a masterpiece BTW there's maps for each location don't think your on a specific route you have to take , get your Map, get your bench, and explore fight bosses and keep going your map will show you areas you haven't been to yet that's where you need to go and die and explore and keep going until you become so strong and experience you will know most of the Map by heart
What is your "go to" game genre?
