Just wanted to mention that I liked your thumbnails from 9 months ago the most, I am actually able to read the text and have a bit of breathing space
Definitely most excited for afterimage. I'm a kickstarter backer and loved the demo
Last faith is the one I'm waiting the most. It's been like 2/3 years I guess. Those dragons gave me a Ultimate blue eyes white dragons from yugioh vibes, but everything else in that just scream "2d bloodborne"
Some great games here… The Knight Witch definitely caught my eye.
All of it that i can't wait to play, i love metroidvania, also astronite is reminding me of Gato Roboto
What’s with the weird inflection in the voice? Sounds like a bot.
The Knight Witch seems interesting. The metroidvania I've enjoyed more than any other lately was Yoku's Island Express, and it's given me a hankering for more metroidvania's that do more/something different… man I wish there was a sequel to Yoku…
Oh man. Looks like all kinds of goodies!! Astroknight looking a lot like Gato Roboto!! I love Gato Roboto. The darkness of some of the others pull my eye as well. Never heard of After Image, but my interest is piqued. Awesome video man!
Last faith is like Blasphemous 1.5
Seriously its so similar in animations and menus its like almost plagiarism.
The same games in every review, I found a dozen cool games on different sites, but all post only what post.
I'm waiting for Ghost Song in heartbeat! Nice video btw!
I thought I was on top of all the hot new Metroidvanias coming down the tube. Moonscars, Ghost Song, The Last Faith, Afterimage, the Knight Witch, and 9 Years of Shadows have been on my wishlist for ages. But stuff like Slavania and Elderand really impressed me. I'll add them to the list, too.
Definitely looking forward to 9 Years of Shadows the most. I'm a sucker for pixel graphics, halberds, and anything centered around the 4 elements, so it checks a lot of boxes. My buddy even got to design an enemy via kickstarter backing, so I'm extra excited to see it. It's probably my current 2nd most anticipated game behind GoW Ragnarok.
nice job on the editing and thumbnail! well made video, have a nice day and success
9YoS has HUGE potential for being THE best mv of the year~
Ghost Song for me.
