I'm in camp "MK makes me squeamish now and I don't see the appeal anymore of the gore" (yes, call me a faggot), but at the same time, outside of deranged outliers like TLoU2, most games don't really go into absurd detail of the violence. Also, it's not like MK is immune to goofy shit even if the gore is the goriest it's ever been,. MK11 borught back Friendships and I'm convinced MK12 will have some goofy shit in there as well. Also, at least for MK, the violence IS the brand, they can't really stop it at this point without making a new franchise.
Engarde does look neat (already knew about it from Iron Pineapple in one of his steam dumpster diving videos), but the aesthetic just looks Fortnitesque to me, basically, sort of cartoony games with light atmosphere's are still everywhere. And then giving Blasphemous shit for all the Christian imagery and terminology is pretty cuntish as well, specially since it really didn't tell me shit about the game, yes, it's a Metroidvania, but is it a GOOD Metroidvania? I don't need mad innovation on my platformer explorers, just that I don't end up lost 3 hours looking for where to go and spend another 3 hours trapped in a pixel perfect platforming segment.
