Despite the critisism, I personally highly enjoy this game. People compare it too much to other platformer metroidvanias, but it is amazing in it's own right. It isn't just another attempt at the genre, it does a lot of things differently, and the combination of it all makes it a really unique experience. If you put away your HK bias for a moment, you can really feel the love and amazing aspects of this game. It's hard, it's map design works but isn't as informative on an overview as some other games with maps, the animations are a little stiff, if you are being really picky, but it is so gorgeous, and really well laid out.
My only real personal critisism is that the game seems a lot more linear than the branching paths you're given would lead you to believe. I'd rather have multiple ways to go rather than "if you don't go here you can't progress", but I still love this game. Genuinely.
Especially considering this is the first game by the studio, damn well done.

A short and honest review of ENDER LILIES: QUIETUS OF THE KNIGHTS

It pains me to say this, but I didn’t enjoy ENDER LILIES. For a long time, I was wondering “why didn’t this game blow up”? It has beautiful art and graphics, with a flawless PC version, nice soundtrack, smooth enough gameplay, and some inspired -yet very few- reviews online. What’s the problem then? Well, I found out, after almost 7 hours of playtime, that ENDER LILIES is...boring. I felt lost half of the time, not knowing what to do next, wasting precious time running around until I finally found the unclear path to follow. Hey, before you think anything: I’m a big fan of metroidvanias and Dark Souls, exploring, backtracking, leveling up, uncovering every secret, and YES! Even getting lost once in a while, but in ENDER LILIES’ case, it just didn’t work for me. Maybe it’s because of how monotonous the game feels so quickly? Its uninteresting and unengaging story and characters, which never motivated me to push forward? I don’t know. Maybe I’m missing something good here. Maybe one day I’ll come back and change this review, but, for now: I’m uninstalling the game... and I don’t do that to games I didn’t finish at least once. Sigh.

這款真的又是一款同溫層遊戲，史上最爛的關卡引導，我拿到游泳還要想那個地方能讓我去下一個地方，然後拿第二個接關能力又要跑去每個點嘗試過不過的去

我玩的遊戲中不知道哪款有跟這款一樣爛的設計的
