This game would have been fucking awesome if they actually had levels in the mansions.

I agree. This game did some thing right, but a lot of things so so wrong. Exploring the overworld is fun, and the day/night cycle is cool (yes, I said I like the day/night cycle, fight me), but the mansions just feel so barren, almost like placeholders.

I wonder what could have happened if the following games tried to improve the open ended nature of this one.

Yeah, imagine if someone made a Castlevania with RPG elements and exploration.

No, is completly different to what i said. In fact, no RPG elements are required. The exploration is just different. You can have a game with Zelda 1 exploration and Zelda 4 exploration, they are not the same yet it is exploration indeed.

Ignoring the tit-rattling faggotry, it is a legitimately good platformer

Nothing wrong with liking the day/night cycle. I think it gives the game a lot of charm. I like it overall though.

Can you elaborate? A quick search came up with nothing but glowing reviews. Is it just the usual indie-faggotry?
