This game is the closest to the C:SOTN we ever got. If you enjoy Metroidvanias, this is a no-brainer.

Pros:
- Level design is great, better than Blasphemous 1 and 2
- Lots and lots of enemies to fight against
- Tons of hidden areas and optional locations
- Responsive movement
- Great art-style
- Large amount of spells and weapons
- Couple challenging bossfights
- Satisfying combat

Cons:
- You receive tons of items you will never use because game forces you to swap single item slot... Controller scheme should be made differently with shortcuts for more than just one item. It should just use d-pad to use up to 4 items immediately.
- Rewards for exploration are a mixed bag. Sometimes you can see an item that you can't reach for the 70% of the game and once you get an ability to reach it - it's a healing item that you already had or something similar.
- While art-style is great and backgrounds are awesome, some tiles are repeated or mirrored which looks awkward especially on small platforms. It's something that Blasphemous dealt with perfectly but here it's jarring at first. Not a deal-breaker though.
- Anti-climactic lack of animations in some areas. In many places you activate something and either screen fades to black and it feels like there should be some kind of animation happening but nothing is going on, it fades in again and now you're in a different location or suddenly an item becomes active. It was confusing and a bit awkward but it might be just budget cuts. It's not a huge problem.
- Recycled bosses, it felt like many bosses were very similar in their looks, their move-set was different though which was great.
- Too many "exploding" enemies - that's a very subjective one but it kinda bothered me how many enemies were burning me after death for no good reason, like there was a tree-type enemy who did not have fire attacks at all and yet after killing him, he started burning which caused me to burn too if I was too close. That's fine with couple enemies but I felt like there were too many of them.

The game is overall great. The overall fun factor in it is on par with Blasphemous 2 in my opinion, although it's not a game without its own issues. Still, it's one of the better Metroidvanias I played and it feels very close to C:SOTN.

At first I thought this game was being unfair so I just quickly left it. Boy I was wrong. It was just me not willing the learn game systems.

This is potentially one of the better roguelikes I ever played, it has huge depth in relatively simple mechanics, each time I played I learned something new in it, something I could've done better.

Perfect continuation. At first I was worried that move from 2D to 3D might lose it's charm but they delivered perfectly. Great game.

Ta gra jest świetna, ale brakuje jej jednej rzeczy do bycia perfekcyjną. Trybu Cooperative.

I didn't like Metro 2033, but Metro Last Light is WAAAAY better. Great atmosphere, well-driven plot and good gameplay. I approve this game. :D
