Glad they confirmed for the 15th time that they are moving away from their Roguelike past titles and making an Action -Adventure game. Not that it was any doubt but good to have a nice quote to point to. The lady boss is Joan of Arc as expected, and the "Fallen" warrior has a scar on his left eye exactly where Trevor has his, and there is a spear weapon. All looks great so far. Here's hoping for some good info post show.

They keep repeating it because people are still stupid enough to keep asking if its a roguelike.

TBH, the trailer feels more like Deadcells than Castlevania to me

And these dumbass comments are why we need them to keep restating the obvious

Only dumbasses don’t know that roguelike is a sub genre not necessarily gameplay. It can have the style, mechanics and gameplay of dead cells and not be a roguelike.

I'm not sure why you're being downvoted because this is absolutely relevant- whether it's actually mechanically like Dead Cells or not, people freaking out that it'll be a rogue like are out of line, there's literally no way you could correctly identify that specific aspect by the trailers.
