7/10
i had fun until white palace and i wanted to be done with it asap
i did the radiance ending which was a convoluted yet extremely rewarding experience
i still don't like metrovanias, if the dream nail didn't have the instant TP power i would drop it to 6/10
i hate games that half require the wiki
i hate games with that punish you by wasting your time for your loss (runbacks)
HOWEVER the world building, combat, movement, level design, lore, music, and enemy design was perfect
i got chills when i saw THE RADIANCE screen
there will never be a better 20 dollar game
i will never play it again, it will be a long time until i play silksong
edit- i was going to write something about the themes of this game but i realize not everything is an allegory. i suppose its saying, the best way to get over regret is by letting go of your ego
