- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).

Thank God I'm not the only one. I was like "The hell am I doing? I feel like I'm just grinding to grind". Nothing felt interesting about the story and navigating the map felt like a chore of backtracking/figuring out where the hell I should go next. The gameplay was fine otherwise, but I just expected more from a game that supposedly "Redefined Metroidvania games".
I feel like it would have been improved with a quest and quest marker system. Some people enjoy exploring every nook and cranny, but I ain't got time for that shit.
Personally I like metroidvanias for the exploration. If a game tells me where to go (e.g. Metroid Prime 4) it feels like the game is playing for me, robbing me of the fun.
You might like platformers more than metroidvanias specifically?
Hell, i like exploring nooks, but not that many
