They're similar in that both are MVs and take inspiration from the Souls games. There's some delay to healing, you can open up shortcuts, bosses are quite tough, notes you can find add to the lore/backstory, dying takes away something like half your money and you have to reclaim your spirit to regain it, etc.

Sounds good,then. I really like Momo 4. I preferred Momodora 3, but it's just a matter of personal tastes. The same devs also made another game called Minoria that has a very similar look and feel to Momodora 4.
Currently playing Blasphemous, bought during the sales and with the new DLC homaging Bloodstained. Is it me who sucks, or is this game being incredibly difficult? I get that the themes are masochism and torture, but still... Maybe I just have a hard time getting used to the parry-based combat system and would prefer to just go ahead and hack everything apart. Or maybe I don't like the system of bonuses that make you strong in one area but weak in another one to ensure you're never overpowered. Anyway it looks pretty great and the Spanish Catholic theme is also fairly original (though I don't know why Spain is so fond of metroidvanias...).

Blasphemous is definitely a hard game. I decided to drop it and return to it another time when I tried a playthrough last year. I have mixed feelings about Metroidlike's heavily borrowing from the Soul's series. It does at least fit with Blasphemous's theme though.

This couldn't be a more blatant clone...
... and that's totally fine! After all: there aren't many others like Jet Set Radio out there. The only change, namely not having roller blades, might even result in better playability, since precise movement, while going slowly was kinda tricky in JSR.

There's also a Crazy Taxi clone that just came out, Taxi Chaos. Reviews have been middling, but it's from a developer that also made middling clones when CT was still new! I wonder if the developer of BRC tried to get the license considering that Sega does seem willing to license out their lesser used properties at this point. JSR/JGR isn't as dead as Panzer Dragoon though.

Anyone else out there happy that Square-Enix remembers Dirge of Cerberus as I am? With Weiss in the PS5 version of FF7:R and all.

Well, kids need to learn about decapitations at a young age nowadays. I can just imagine the line of dolls sold alongside it having removable spines and such.

I'm more concerned how MK Ultra got in the title.

This may not be the worst idea for a cartoon based on a licensed property. I remember reading online about how one idea for a DC comics cartoon that never got green lit was where Batman supervillains would be teenagers and went to high school. Maybe kind of similar to the MK one.
On another note I tried seeing what was on Youtube about this MK Ultra Girls show and aside from one video on it my search brought up stuff on CIA mind control experiments! WTF.

Which is why it's so insane they called in MK Ultra! Name a kids show after a program of abuse and carried out by a US government agency that involved children and secretly having them take drugs.
