Thank God I'm not the only one. I was like "The hell am I doing? I feel like I'm just grinding to grind". Nothing felt interesting about the story and navigating the map felt like a chore of backtracking/figuring out where the hell I should go next. The gameplay was fine otherwise, but I just expected more from a game that supposedly "Redefined Metroidvania games". I feel like it would have been improved with a quest and quest marker system. Some people enjoy exploring every nook and cranny, but I ain't got time for that shit.

Personally I like metroidvanias for the exploration. If a game tells me where to go (e.g. Metroid Prime 4) it feels like the game is playing for me, robbing me of the fun. You might like platformers more than metroidvanias specifically?
