One Million Players Have Now Visited Cvstodia As Blasphemous Reaches Sales Landmark

Fingers crossed for this Friday here.

Congratulations!
It's an awesome game! Great and creepy atmosphere.

I bounced off Blasphemous pretty hard when it launched, even as an avid Dark Souls/Metroidvania fan. However I returned to it during lockdown last year and played it all the way through, including the secret ending and loved it. The art style is gorgeous, the combat is tight, and if you can get over the initial learning curve (as with all these kinds of games) it's an incredibly rewarding and enjoyable romp, highly recommended!

Enhorabuena chicos!!! A quality game for sure.

I'm playing it but suck at this type of game. Still enjoying it though. I'm glad it's doing well.

I do really enjoy the game! I just hate that stupid cone head hat he's wearing. Looks rediculous.

Just picked this one up, too! Absolute gem of a game.

Games like this and enter the gungeon, make me wonder if those games could've been possible on the snes, way back when.

I loved this game, waited until the physical was released, then played it, and I was not dissapointed, still need to do the second run to see the new areas added later.

Awesome game, good to see it’s done so well.

This along with Slain were so heavily difficult for me to play through but are so good that once I do get through em I feel accomplished and satisfied.

A very solid game! I also like that they've published a big free update.

@PhhhCough The main issue would of been content and speed. With limited memory some of the varied designs and monster AI might of taken a hit, but overall it IS doable, but would look and feel very different.

Hard as nails but very good, in my opinion, switch console shines with this kinda games 🙂

I picked this up on sale on ps4 last year. Amazing game, and I hate souls games.

Sweet. This is free to Amazon Prime members right now. Will download.

So cool! It's a great game, probably the best "Castlevania" of the gen (yes, it's even better than Bloodstained, imo).

Haven't tried this yet. I've seen how beautiful it is, but how does it play? Good mechanics/level design? How similar to SOTN, for those that have played both?

Thank you.

NINJA APPROVED

This game is flipping great.

@Wavey84

What’s funny is I love this game (warts and all) and many of the modern “metroidvania” me-toos but I absolutely could never and cannot get into Symphony of the Night (Super Metroid is my jam though).

@BloodNinja

Nothing like Symphony of the Night. More like a Monster World lite or Hollow Night very lite. Controls are fine, not the best ever, but not at all bad. ACTION RPG more than anything. More Simon’s Quest in nature but with runes and secrets and whatnot. A word of warning: the game is really cryptic unless you go deep into the lore...and even then...you can tell they designed the game with the internet community in mind. If you want to find/do everything (including some mandatory things); you’re going to be googling for the answers.

Not sure what the complaints are about the music. It’s a dark ambient take on classical Spanish stuffs. The sound design is pretty dope, tbh.

@Wavey84 Hahaha, sounds good. I actually just went ahead and bought the GOG version so I’ll try it this evening!

NINJA APPROVED

@robr Ok, so similar to Demon’s Souls, in that regard. Sounds like it might be up my alley.

@BloodNinja

Oh no, it’s not at all a “soulsborne”. It’s definitely still a modern indie 2D metroidvania with a HEAVY Spanish Inquisition vibe. You backtrack all day long while getting pummelled with 15th century Catholicism vibes.

@Wavey84 SOTN has an OST that is really, really difficult to top. Many have tried, haven't found one, yet.

For real and my Blasphemy is still virgin...after I get with my backlogs.....
