Nov. 2025

This game made me realize that I had been spending years not being satisfied by the games I was playing. I got in a loop of only playing games that rewarded a very consistent amount of dopamine whenever I played them, cough cough Fortnite cough. Or chill games like minecraft that don't necessarily direct you to do anything. I picked up Blasphemous on sale because the artstyle was up my alley. But the tone, the story, and especially the gameplay were all so top notch that I had to keep playing it. I realized exploring the dogmatic world, getting my ass beat, and powering through the pain gave me the kind of experiences that I had as a kid. (I was raised Catholic.) Overall amazing game, challenging but very rewarding and extremely fair game design. Art style sells it. My only thing was the music could have been more interesting.

In the brotherhood of penitents. Straight up "blaspheming it". and by "it", haha, well, let's just say... Mea Culpa.

June 2025

I don’t usually like Metroidvanias or Souls-like games, but this is a masterpiece I regret not playing sooner. The game draws heavily from Spanish Catholic culture, which I love. One of the areas is even literally based on the real-life Mezquita of Cordoba. The music is also great and fits the atmosphere perfectly. The medieval gothic vibes in this are simply immaculate and don't give Hot Topic at all. I'm admittedly not great with super difficult games, but this was still very playable and enjoyable for me. Here are some tips if you’re a casual but want to enjoy this game (and I suggest you do because the setting is worth the effort): – Explore in this order: Mercy Dreams → Cistern → Mountains → Olive Trees → Bridge. After the bridge, go down first and save the Rooftops/Wall for last. – If you want to make the game even easier, look up a map to find hidden HP and MP upgrades. – Pick up everything, and if you can’t reach something, mark it on the map for later. If you can’t beat a boss it’s probably because you lack upgrades or haven’t figured out its attack pattern. Most bosses in this game are actually a breeze (and I'm not good at games). The only critiques I have is that some quests are time-sensitive or require doing things in a strict order, and a lot of content can be easy to miss without a guide. That’s typical for the genre, though. What really annoyed me were the lantern jumps. Also the Miriam levels were designed by a demon.

Great Game, the controls were a bit troublesome at first but I could get used to it rather quickly, also you can pet dogs.
