the boss fights are so banger. these 2 are some of my favorites, especially lore-wise.

speaking of, the lore is easily understandable yet still very enjoyable. and the fan base is TINY so you can make lots of original theory.

AND its all compacted into one 87-page pdf OR a series of 26 very well-done and entertaining YouTube videos by Cyberphile.

the vibe is immaculate. the playstyles are so fun. there’s 2-player optional. there are 16 types of weapons. you can wield them with two OR one hand(s), which just makes for more options. you can carry a greatsword and be a mage at the same time (very important for me)

AND it’s a metroidvania where you unlock different movement abilities (wall-jump, dash, etc) along the way by meeting different NPCs that give you firebrands (banger concept)
