should we play 1 before 2 or will it not matter much if we jump right into 2.

Hope it lives up to the hype. While I enjoyed the first, I don’t see it as a GOAT metroidvania contender like many others do. Got tired of the samey environments and the general directionlessness, but loved the mechanics and movement. Hope this one has some more environmental variety
One of the toughest platinum trophies I've gotten

It's about damned time.

It’s in the debate for greatest Metroidvania game of all time.
Excluding Super Metroid & Symphony of the Night, of course.

Not pushing back because I generally agree with your takes. What are some of your favorite metroidvanias? Was thinking about getting into one again. I have to take a huge break between games in that genre.

Also are we complaining about team cherry wanting to stay the same to make their own game the way they want to? Maybe they would have been overwhelmed with a bigger team and lost that connection to the game. Crazy. I would have thought people would applaud that.

Blasphemous 1
Salt & sanctuary
Grime
3 of my faves from last year before I burned out on the genre.
Blasphemous is incredible. But it didn’t hook me right away. By the end though it became one of my favorite games across all genres.
Tough to even explain the appeal. It’s tough and the world is…. Quite interesting to say the least.
Re: silksong, awesome! Can’t believe it’s almost finally out. Hollow knight is incredible.

Those two probably made like $10 million a piece at least.
They've sold 15M copies. Standard price of $14.99, historical low is $5.99. Let's just assume average of $10 per sale.
$150,000,000 gross, 30% fee for Steam/PSN/Xbox marketplace sales
That's $52,500,000 for each of those jabronis before paying out their contract laborers
No wonder they didnt rush. Scope creep is bound to happen with no worries about funding Posted on 8/21/25 at 3:06 pm to Carson123987

- Symphony of the Night
- Salt & Sanctuary
- Ori 1 and 2
- Ender Lilies
- Ender Magnolia
- Nine Sols
- Blasphemous 1 and 2
- Bloodstained
- Hollow Knight
- Aeterna Noctis (not for the faint of heart, one of the most relentlessly oppressive games I've ever played. If you've played Path of Pain from Hollow Knight, just imagine that difficulty of platforming for an entire 60hr game. It's a true precision platformer on top of having a crazy combat system and some really difficult bosses)
- Grime
- Last Faith
- Axiom Verge (much more metroid than castlevania)
- Laika: Aged Through Blood (this one didn't quite click with me like I expected but I still enjoyed it)
I just started Prince of Persia Lost Crown and it seems very promising.
Other highly regarded ones I've bought but haven't played yet:
- Islets
- Doomblade
- Afterimage
- Record of Lodoss War: Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth
- Elderand
- Astalon: Tears of the Earth
- Elderand
- Monster Boy
- Death's Gambit
- Crypt Custodian
I realize that's a lot, but if you give me some more info regarding you preferences, I can fine tune some selections for you. The top 10 are so are absolute must plays though

Plus I’m willing to bet that Silksong will be twice the price or higher than Hollow Knight (not unjustifiably I might add), and they’re about to make mad bank.
Take it with a grain of salt, etc., etc., but there's a Steam thread that says a humble bumble insider confirmed a $24.99 price.

ETA: It's also apparently going to be on Game Pass
