What are some abilities in Metroidvanias that were completely unexpected for you?
As someone who loves guessing what my abilities will be when I'm just starting a metroidvania and seeing all the ability-gated secrets everywhere, I always really enjoy having my expectations being subverted and being surprised by creative new abilities. I even consider abilities to be a mild spoiler and tend to avoid trailers as a result!
For me, one of my most memorable surprises was (Axiom Verge): The lab coat trenchcoat upgrade. Completely caught me off guard both times. Such a unique ability and fits into the theme of the game so well!
A whole bunch of surprising abilities have been mentiond already, but none have mentioned this one from the Mummy: Demastererd..
I was certain that we would get a dubbel jump, a jet pack or somthing along these lines, to reach out of reach platforms.. but nope, Instead we get the ability to.. .. .. hang in, and climb along, the ceiling!! Any ceiling. 😅
