Bro Lego Marvel Super Heroes is the mad note!

Yeah I got it because it got good reviews. I'll spend more time with it once I get tired of the metroidvania stuff.

Have you tried Bloodstained? It's by the guy behind all the Metroivania Castlevanias and is one of those games in all but name.

Yeah I saw it being mentioned but it looks a bit too retro-y for me. I'm looking for the mechanics of metroidvania but a more contemporary look (Dead cells is retro but seems to be one of the best in the genre so I made an exception).

This looks kinda interesting:

It's as modern-looking as you're gonna get.

Not true, all of the games I mention (apart from Dead Cells) look much more modern (or at least don't make you feel like you're back on an atari or something).

Alright you're thinking of Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon, which was like a companion game released as a prequel for Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night while it was still on Kickstarter. This is what Ritual of the Night looks like:

I saw this gameplay actually and it looked (looks?) a bit pixelated, but you're right, it's not that bad actually. Certainly looks better than Dead cells.

The main character is a sprite I believe, but everthing else is 3d. Don't know why they made that decision but the game looks pristine.

Got sucked back into ESO after a long hiatus from it. Still a phenomenal MMO. way better than it was when it initially released. I'm a khajit sorcerer using mostly shock and fire for my abilities.
