The difficulty was somehow right at my skill level, but it may be too hard for others. It has some silly meta jokes, and it also has one of my favorite songs for an opening level.
The Messenger was an amazing metroidvania; if it ended halfway through it would have still been a decent game, but seeing the game unfold even further after that really elevated it to a 10/10 for me.
I'm not gaming much these days but I'm still playing Eclipse and sitting at 238 shines right now. Absolutely insane Sunshine mod, not every world is a homerun but when they're good they are really damn good. And I love how they kept everything interconnected like in Sunshine, even when it comes to the post-game worlds.
After I'm done I'll play the OOT remake; it has been a while since I played the original. After that I'll see what I do, maybe it's time for Dual Override or SlashZero by then.
