Death's Gambit: Afterlife

a "Good" metroidvania, like a solid 8, it has plenty of good stuff namely cool but IMO its held back by some pretty basic things, so ill sort this into the "Good the bad and the Ugly" first the combat and movement feel pretty fluid, and you have plenty of options to adapt Sorun (the MC) to your playstyle, starting from your class, and they play drastically different, later you also have the option to pick abilities from a subclass, like say i picked the soldier which is sorta like the Knight from dark souls, but then i picked assassins as a sub class because i love roll and roll, and that subclass has the ability to reduce cooldowns by rolling, which takes to the abilities there are a LOT of abilities, the bad thing? a ton of them are locked behind a weapon, say you want an ability to induce bleed? too bad its only for the daggers, which are the weapons of the assassin (thief), so in a way the game kinda locks you into a weapon because of your class, and thus into the abilities you can choose, and on the topic something i didnt like is the fact that at least for me there wasnt enough material to upgrade more than 1 weapon to decent levels, apparently the limit is +10, but startin…

5/10

Just can't wrap my head around the controls. Tried several times to get into it. but after dying 40 times in 45 minutes, no for me. Cant even get past the first 2% percent.

Game is too easy and also really boring. Most of the friction comes from the really long corridors and excessive backtracking. I had the same issue when playing Bloodstained: RotN and to a lesser degree with Silksong. People nowadays make metroidvanias or call their game a metroidvania but they forget the fact that exploration and ability unlocking has to feel like fun instead of a chore.
