I've played almost 4 hours of this game now, and all I feel right now is frustration. The platforming is very punishing. Trap placement is very punishing. Many of the puzzles don't have intuitive solutions. And at the end of it all, I just don't feel very rewarded for my efforts. Finding new treasures or items isn't particularly satisfying. I don't really know what areas I'm supposed to go to. I just...I want to like this game because I like "metroidvania" style games, but I just can't get into the brutal nature of this one. Maybe if the punishment didn't send you all the way back to the sparsely-scattered save points and made you trek all the way through all the treacherous tedium you just went through, maybe I'd have more patience for this one. But as it stands, I just think I'm going to shelf this one where I am and move on to other things. Sorry, La-Mulana
