Which video game did you bounce off of at first, but then tried again later for it to become one of your favorites of all time? (lemmy.world)

What do you mean by the handicaps? Like the negative traits your character will roll? I thought that was on by default.

I love the old Metroid sidescrollers but never played much Castlevania. Farming loot drops over and over in the same room sounds super boring to me. I much prefer to earn my upgrades through exploration or overcoming challenges.

In the options, there's a setting to turn damage down to like 40%, and turn attack power to 150%.

Yeah. Thats Rogue Legacy 2 in a nutshell. You don't need to, just like in Dark Souls. I just suck as a player and need to grind (and use a handicap)
