Title: New Switch Game Is Like Symphony Of The Night With JRPG Graphics
Post by: The Sceneman on June 07, 2019, 08:27:24 AM: The headline was fed to me via a sponsored Facebook post. The algorithms finally learned I was a REAL GAMER.

FAKEbook knew SotN is my favourite game EVER.

Game looks pretty medium. Boring art. Reminds me of Terraria

Doesnt SotN already have "JRPG graphics"?

New 2D Indie Title is Dark Souls + Metroidvania

I once saw a headline that said "this game is the Dark Souls of 2D indie roguelike Metroidvanias"... and thought that had to be a piss take...

In addition to what's already been said, "New Switch Game" (=Old Multiplatform Game)

Thankfully my adblocker made sure that my visit cost Kotaku money instead of making them any.

Anyway, :piss Kotaku :piss2
