its the same game as hyper light drifter with a bonus zone that was cool. idk. cant improve perfection
First hour: I don't really get this, the setting is cool though I guess.
Next 3-4 hours: oh I'm done and it has been an entire day, woops.
When it gets it's hooks in ya, it really gets it's hooks in ya, y'know?

I bounced off this game years ago but decided to give it another go now that my taste in games has changed. I've gotta say, this game is awesome! I don't think it's perfect but there is so much soul oozing from this game and it is just damn fun. I very much look forward to trying out Solar Ash and Hyper Light Breaker!
Great game, don’t know why I haven’t finished it to be honest.
This title was a lot of fun. Each area was brimming with atmosphere, and I anticipated what challenges waited around every corner. I especially enjoyed the gunplay, as each weapon was fun to experiment with.
The game can be extremely vague about certain things. This is mostly due to a lack of dialogue, as all mechanics are explained using images or context clues. This is usually great, but that does mean it's easy to accidentally ignore certain features. For instance, despite knowing they existed, I never got used to chain dashing or stamina management. The game also likes to hide secrets just out of view. It can be incredibly fun to notice a strange wall that leads to a secret tunnel with upgrade material, but it can also be frustrating when the collectible required for progression is hidden behind a wall inside a jail cell that you walked past on five separate occasions.

Wife’s Reaction:
“Major Adventure Time and Dead Cell vibes. Creepy and awesome.”
The Fast and the Furious:
One of those indies I had on my radar and never got around to playing. Immediately, Hyper Light Drifter hits with a wild opening, then leaves you to wander and figure out what to do and where to go. It’s fast and challenging and has awesome vibes and style.

all of the content from the original game is as perfect as always but i was disappointed to find out the special edition content was not made by heart machine but instead a completely different studio (abylight studios) and mostly only consisted of one 5-10 minute area with a boss fight at the end of it which was way harder than literally everything else in the base game. they did add a couple new guns which were cool (even though you can't upgrade them for some reason) but the fact that it was all stuff made by a different team of developers made it feel like i was playing fan-made modded pieces of content as opposed to experiencing new officially added components of the game. regardless though hyper light drifter still is a fantastic game at its core, with tight, fast gameplay and rewarding exploration set against an absolutely beautiful backdrop, and despite the lackluster new additions of this edition itself, i would still recommend any version of the game to anyone any day.
unless it was like a evil version of the game or something that'd be a different set of circumstances
