Whatcha been playing!

I’ve been playing Batman Arkham origins. Never played it when it came out but loved the other ones. It’s pretty good so far!

    Blasphemous, a 2D Metroidvania game with a very distinctive art style.

    So far loving the world design and level design, it reminds me strongly of Dark Souls, without feeling like a clone in any way. I do unfortunately suck at platforming, and this game is so far not forgiving about it…

      Nice! Yeah blasphemous slaps. The platforming as you say though is unforgiving. I hate the instant spike KOs… Something the sequel thankfully changed

        I was honestly hoping that they had added something later in game that makes it no longer instant death… So that isn’t happening then?

        At least I have the sequel to look forward to
