I was banned from reddit for talking about politics (I am anti trump) on the air force reddit so I wasn't even able to comment on a post about me.
I know this is Lemmy and Reddit is bad etc., but FYI when you get banned from one subreddit by its mods, it doesn't ban you from the entirety of Reddit. You could comment if you wanted.
Personally I like metroidvanias for the exploration. If a game tells me where to go (e.g. Metroid Prime 4) it feels like the game is playing for me, robbing me of the fun.
You might like platformers more than metroidvanias specifically?
