Reminds me of the X-Band for the SNES and Genesis.  Basically a modem that replicated player inputs, so you could play games ‘online’.  Games weren’t really made to support it though, so things would get massively desynced.

If they are including Stormveil castle, then the knights definitely belong on the list.  Only the runebear comes close to these guys.

I’d be curious about a statement from Mundfish, which is based out of Moscow.  Especially given Atomic Heart is scheduled to come out this year.

Streets of Rogue can be stealth based depending on what character you play as.  Almost all classes require a bit of stealth, but this is especially true for characters like Hacker, Doctor, Thief, Assassin, Shapeshifter and Vampire.

I won’t consider it complete until they get through Children of Dune

I can see that, though I would like to see a category that doesn’t let you use this exploit. I guess I’m just a little annoyed that some bosses get skipped in the “100% category” due to this.

I would like them to at least get through Children of Dune.  I just find Leto II a more interesting character, and that’s where they really start getting into the whole Golden Path thing.

I wonder if they will patch the bug that lets you shoot through walls when you hit the ceiling, which is currently used to skip the first EMMI and the water boss (forget his name)

Not going to lie, this is probably perfect for me now that the local Industrial/Goth clubs have started up again.

Is there anything in there about the selection criteria? If it’s self selected (meaning people opt in to taking the survey), then I would expect it to skew towards people who have complaints to make to take part in the survey, If it was a random sampling instead then we could expect it to be indicative of the company…

I think that the problem with the name is that Castlevania games don’t really fit in the “Metroidvania” mold, given their reliance on random loot drops.  I feel like Zelda games tend to fit the formula better, though just in the overworld.

Hot take: Wouldn’t the abundance of scalpers for a product indicate that the MSRP is too low? Scalpers only exist because people are willing to pay well over the asking price in order to receive the product.

Of course, it is possible that even if the MSRP would be increased to $1000, around what most scalpers seem to…
