Absolutely loving it so far, though my only issue honestly is that, your character can become so powerful so quickly that the enemies do no damage to them. I found after I beat the first boss that nothing until the sand area could damage me, and even then it was only the enemies in the pentagrams that could damage me.
-Edit 1 to respond; Yeah. I used the blacksmith at basically every chance I got to upgrade my weapons and stuff. It made the game insanely easy.
