VGChartz's Paul Broussard: "The original Blasphemous was a title that I (and the game’s Creative Director, for that matter) ultimately concluded was very good, but not really a Metroidvania. With that in mind, I hadn’t really planned to write about the sequel when it was announced, but Blasphemous 2 changed that part of its formula quite a bit and has a much greater emphasis on ability-gated progression. So just how does Blasphemous hold up, now that it’s actually a Metroidvania?"

Good list, and kudos to having a list-article where everything is listed on 1 page.
Nine Sols looks nice, and also a bit similar in style to Bo, Path of the Teal Lotus, which should also be a good game (picked it up a few weeks ago but haven't played it myself yet ... )
