It’s great just to see it exist. And not every game needs to reinvent the wheel, especially when the series hasn’t had a game in 15 years.

Plus it's a MetroidVania. Well, kinda the MetroidVania, or half of it. Trying too much with it would feel weird IMO because I'd want the two grandfathers to focus more on the central tenets, not some inventive genre-spinoffs.
