Im considering getting it during the Steam sale.
I find it kinda bussin, I find it kinda cap
That the dreams in which I'm dying are the ones that kinda slap
I adore it. Easily my game of the year (in a year with a lot of games I really like.)

It's on Game Pass if you have that

I haven't played it yet but have my eye on it
It's pretty good. Strong points are combat and story, while the weak points are exploration and movement abilities. Not that they're bad, they just don't stand out among other MVs.

As far as 2024 MVs go, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is a much better game.
All the stars in the sky are waiting for you.
Good game, incredibly stressful to play. Even basic enemies will crush you if you're just a little off your game. There's a lower difficulty setting that lets you modify your damage given/taken though so that can mitigate it if you want to go that route. Great setting, surprisingly great story and characters for a metroidvania. Great art. Overall I think it's worthwhile if you're willing to die a lot until you get the parry-based combat down.
"You're childish. What are you getting? Are you getting strawberry? Ha! That's such a childish flavor, only children eat strawberry."
Oh yeah, Prince of Persia The Lost Crown! I forgot about that, I havent played that game either
