Great game but definitely a huge drop in quality compared to Aria. Level design is uninteresting, touch screen mechanics are cringe, weapons are less diverse compared to Aria, exploration is just not as fun. Story itself is also not that interesting too but i love everything about Aria so much that ive cared about it. And idk if its just me but even graphics are worse than Aria. Those are my complaints basically

But.. Soul system, good controls, great boss battles and everything good about aria (besides the ones ive mentioned) are here! So its still an amazing metroidvania, just a bit lower quality compared to Aria of Sorrow and Symphony of the Night.
