I thought Salty Sanctuary was 2D Bloodborne

Looks more akin to Blasphemous.

That's 2D DS

A dark, gothic fusion of metroidvania and soulslike.

damn, another one?

Says huge range of weapons thats not bloodborne

I love how the only 2 negative reviews have more depth than everyone else's positives which boil down to "I liked it just like bloodborne!".

How many is that now this month?
Srsly though, this is one I'll probably play, it looks good.

Yeah, wake me when FROM is involved.

Man this just makes me want real bloodborne 2 more.

Wouldn't a 2d bloodborne just be castlevania?

Funny how the description of the game does literally nothing to differentiate itself

like Blasphemous could be boiled down to this description too, but that game actually had its own gimmick to set itself apart from the pack of from software imitating metroidvanias

this one is literally just hey you like those other things right?

For anyone interested, I played an hour or so yesterday. It's definitely coming across more like castlevania with a reposte system.

The voice acting is horrifically bad. everyone is supposed to have a disinterested melancholy tone, but its done so bad that it comes across as a third grader reading something out loud for the class. Its not even fun bad since it's often unnecessarily wordy. Reminds me of the big bad guy's speeches in Final Fantasy 16.

I need to see if I can remap controls because on the ps5 they're clunky af. Attack is square. Reposte is R1 and triangle. R2 is your left hand weapon/spell which is displayed on the far left on your item bar on the bottom. Meanwhile L2 is your item which is displayed to the right of that. It's counter intuitive imo. The range on reposte is super small. Like my close range weapons put me too far out of range to use it effectively unless I go out of my way.

Beyond that it's okay enough. All of the weapons I've found are pretty different. The builds seem to work just like BB type games with the stats. I'm just rocking an axe with high str scaling. I've only fought the opening boss which is pretty much just a tutorial. Maybe bosses will be better soon. I'm kind of disappointed that I haven't found any more yet. Currently just several npcs to hint at quests.

Level design is adequate. Lots of hidden rooms even early on and a bunch of things I see that I'll need to return to once I get a tool to use on it. The story hints at a BB type thing happening.

Overall it's fine. I like the genre, but the BB aspects aren't adding much so far.

Hunt the Night already is 2d bloodborne.
