There is no shortcut, you have to enjoy the interactions with the characters and the developing narrative.

Blasphemous right now. Plays excel·lent bar some issues with resolution. Changing resolution can result in the game freezing when doing an attack, and it keeps happening even if you relaunch the game. I found somewhere that shutting off and on the deck solves it, and it’s true.

As for gameplay having downed three bosses (+ the tutorial one at the start), it’s fun! Maybe too cryptic for my taste, I’ve had to open a guide a couple of times. But the gameplay it’s tight and challenging.
