Not a metroidvania, your character is as strong at the end as you are at the beginning
Most unique gaming experience of the last decade tho
>discount hollow knight
Nowhere near similar to HK
t. hasn't played it
that's the thing though, instead of getting stronger through arbitrary powerups strewn throughout the world, you the player get better at surviving the world. So in a since geting gud is the powerup.
It's the best video game. I don't know about Metroidvania.
Rain World and HK are nothing alike, putting the grim setting aside.
If anything it's more like an Oddworld clone but with brutal survival elements.
>metroidvania
Feels a lot closer to an another world or a flashback to me
It's not a metroidvania, there are no powerups. Actual fav game of all time tho
I've read a lot of dumb posts on Yas Forums but this might take the cake
>oddworld clone
how? because it's a cinematic platformer? pretty sure those existed before oddworld
No, Oddworld as in it's a room-by-room platformer with a heavy emphasis on stealth and "solving" the obstacles. Just the closest game I can relate RW to.
I'm pretty sure what your describing is a cinematic platormer
is this game comparable to oddworld
i know nothing about it but i love abe's odyssey and a friend said it's similar
>is this game comparable to oddworld
Not really. At a first glance it looks like cinematic platformer, but it is not one. You have proper massive nonlinear world and almost zero guidance on how you are expected to explore it.
In the sense that it's a cinematic platformer in an alien world. The comparisons pretty much end there. Abe's Odyssey had a lot more puzzle elements, Rain World is about exploration and survival. Oddworld has structured challenges, Rain World has a sort of ecology system.
it sounds neat enough, thanks though
This game and Baba is you have definitely been some of the most interesting and unique games I feel have come out in the last 10 years. I don't think any other game off the top of my head has emulated an ecosystem as well as this game has from what I've seen.
WHAT IS IT
oh shit
definitely not a metroidvania

I want a pet slugcat so bad Yas Forumsros...
who doesn't?
>Stopped playing after the second area
>Too scared to lose my progress and too uninterested to replay the game a gazillion times if I get stuck in an area.
Fuck, this is a bad feeling. I want to finish the game, but it's just too bland - for a lack of a better word - to continue.
play on monk mode dude
I wish I can play this game but I got the incurable black screen bug that they still haven't fixed. Maybe I should lame out and buy it on a console.
You can't really get stuck in an area, through playing you'll quickly get a free one-time teleport that you can use in such a case
If you're a complete shitter then you'll never get any of the passages since they're all locked behing the survivor. If you keep dying you'll never get the survivor passage.
If you die so much that you can't even leave the first area video games aren't for you anyway
>Fortnite is a Metroidvania because you git gud at cranking 90s and double pumping
I need More Slugcats Mod. Now.
Is this the only buddhist video game ever made?
