Why are Indie Castlevanias so garbage? Yes, all of them.

>procedurally generated

It looks like some alpha placeholders. The only reason I didn't try this game.

I would say the artstyle adds to the atmosphere, it's gross and messy just like the world and overall tone of the game

>gross and messy
What? It's cartoony and retarded.

that doesn't mean it can't be gross and messy

this is legitimately the worst, and I'll never understand why people love this shit so much
Minecraft worked because even after they added the survival mechanisms, it still mainly was a creative game to build stuff. whereas every game afterwards has crafting mechanics that just allow you to build a shit tier hut to stay in for a few minutes until you go out into an annoying world again that looks straight out of a PS2 game

Ok you don't like it
STFU and move on bitch

Underage retard.

demons/dark souls is essentially a 3d remake of castlevania though

Hollowknight was good. Might not be your thing, but it was a high quality game.

>game has crafting
>it has no real reason to include crafting, it's just there to tick a box

This is literally Hollow Knight to be quite honest family.

>The mats are still grindy as shit though even though the game does nothing to make grinding fun.

Why do so many games have so much confidence in a system they've put no effort into?

a lot of people don't care that it's just a timesink and they view a game offering more to do as a good thing no matter what.

I think a lot of it is just lack of understanding game design.
They look at other games where X worked and was fun and then decide to include X without thinking about the overall feel of the game.

I'm actually thinking about developing a game. What type of games are you guys really wanting to play, that aren't being developed or came out in recent times.
