Controversial opinion alert! SOtN is a 7/10 or 8/10 for me.

why's that?


It's been awhile since I played it, but I find the gameplay clunky, especially the jumping. The randomness of the weapon drops can negate the level design. I need to replay it at some point.

I think "Metroidvania" games tend to frustrate a lot of people and that tends to make them kind of divisive.

They aren't really "hard," but they do kinda require dying a lot and even though SOTN is one of the easier in the series, I think it still frustrated people.

Basically I'm saying Monkey_Driven probably sucked at the game.

That's the thing, I love Metroidvanias. I was playing it on a Vita, so maybe I did suck.

This was on my longlist. I still sometimes accost people to tell them about that scene. And the level with the artist is one of the best levels ever put in a game.

Off the top of my head, I can't think of another sports game that should be picked.
