I haven’t played a Metroidvania in a while and I’m looking for suggestions of some good ones to try. Some I would recommend:

Ender’s: Lilies (Magnolias is good too, but play Lilies first. The setting and theme hits better.)

Ori and the Blind Forest / Will of the Wisps (Will of the Wisps did bring a tear to my eye)

Monster Sanctuary (a creature capture metroidvania)

Any system is good, interested to hear of other good ones that are out there.

    if you haven’t played Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night you really, really should. It’s made by the creators behind the Castevania games and is REALLY good.

      I can’t stand how the character moves in bloodstained. It’s like an 8 bit games physics.

      But it is a fun game otherwise.

        Are you sure you aren’t confusing Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night with Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon? The former is as fluid as SotN, if not more so. The latter is meant to emulate the stiff movement of the original 8-bit Castlevania games.
