Is it still worth playing?

Hand drawn visuals and a blend of Metroidvania and Soulslike genres define this 2D action role playing game, first released in March 2016 on PlayStation 4. There are about 600 items, and each weapon category has its own moveset, including air attacks. Two handed weapons add power, shields can block and parry, and magic and ranged attacks are available. The game uses origins, classes and stat development, plus a skill tree with hundreds of combinations. Local multiplayer supports cooperative and versus play, and players can leave each other messages. With so many ways to build a character, a second run can feel new now.
