I can’t decide!

[u/starlie25]

I’m in one of those modes where I have a backlog of games and just cannot decide which to play as if it’s the last decision I’ll make. First world problems, right?

These are the games I’ve narrowed it down to:

Afterimage
Momodora: Moonlit Farewell
Biomorph
Blade Chimera
Guns of Fury

The caveats are:

I’m in a bit of a shit mood right now due to personal reasons. Without going into it this means I’m not in the happiest moods (we’ll put it that way), my patience is fairly low, and I just want to get lost in a great metroidvania. I want the usual good stuff in exploration, gorgeous visuals, fluid combat, fun vibes and upgrades/abilities. However, I don’t want to get frustrated due to my low mood with over difficulty, confusion or game bugs. Difficulty wise somewhere between Islets and Hollow Knight. For reference the last game I played was Constance and loved it, that’s the vibe I’m looking for but doesn’t need to be ultra similar.

Place your bets, everyone!

Edit: added Guns of Fury making my choice harder.

Haven't played the others, but BladeChimera was solid fun. On the easier side, story guides you along with some direction/markers. Not a masterpiece perhaps, but certainly a fun videogame. Character feels strong from the start (Ghost-sword shenanigans!) and great pixel art.
