Can’t wait to do an evil run tomorrow.
This game is seriously good.

I tried to do the Redemption ending but still got the Wretch ending instead.
So far the endings I've unlocked are:
Ultimate Good
Wretch
Submission
Ultimate Evil
Coward
Drowsy
Future
I did just enough to get the going evil cutscene, and then tried to do all the quests I could to go back to good, and after doing everything I could the guards were talking to me as if I was good again, but told me I kept needing to do good things to open up more quests. You *cannot* get the Holy Spell from the 5th Dungeon if you turn evil, no matter how many quests you do or what your alignment is, you'll always get hellfire instead which locks you out of one of the first quests. So this redemption ending is going to take some real min-maxing and dungeon diving to get that spell *before* you do any sidequests.
Another new way to play? Yes please!

There's a thread on the Steam forums for the game about alignment that might help you with getting the redemption ending.

Real neat game, but by the end I just flipped on the invincibility and jumping cheats and didn't look back. Game balance and difficulty decided to take a sharp turn into flooding levels full of instant kill pits. Meaning you have to basically marathon the whole dungeon in 1-3 lives before we shake the etch-a-sketch and make you start all over again. Later dungeons just didn't really make leaving and saving that feasible. The one dungeon with the jumps designed around the up-attack move can also go fuck itself, most frustrating part of the game right there. Also I had no clue where the final armor upgrade was, so everything was doing 2-4 damage, making it that much harder (I've since found where it's hiding though). Now granted, that was all on the classic difficulty. Casual is right there, even if I'm too fucking stubborn to pick it, so that is mostly on me. I actually tried it out a bit, and the first dungeon had a save shrine halfway through, so at least they do that for you.
All that being said, as soon as I beat the game, I instantly made another character. Post game secrets and spoilers:

Yeah, after I beat the game the first time on Classic difficulty (with the ultimate good ending), I decided to bump things down to Casual as well. Made things a lot easier.
Also, gameplay tip for the up+attack and down+ attack moves: you can use the right analog stick to perform those moves by simply moving it up or down respectively, provided you have that option enabled. I think it's on by default. I remember seeing it in the options, but forgot about it by the time I got those moves. I used them on my second playthrough though.

Dusky Dolphins, Kaikoura NZ.
Duskys are amongst the more playful species of dolphins, and are known for their fondness for aerials, being amongst the most acrobatic of dolphin species. They'll often make repeated jumps for shits and giggles; spins, flops, backflips, tail slaps, and when they are in a mood they'll happily do this for half an hour or more. On this day there were at least 3 jumping, although that usually means there's more as it's always hard to tell how many are actually in the water. I'm pretty sure I saw the same pod surfing the breakers on the other side of the penninsula later the same day, but they weren't breaking the water (bar fins) so it was all dark shadows in massive translucent blue waves.
Also, I got my second to last ending in the game last night. All that is left for me is the one Viskod mentioned, I believe.

I'm all for meeting games where they are, but Infernax really does feel especially hellish.

Only missing Evil and Redemption. My first run was Good and I completed it on Classical. The rest of the runs were on Casual.
Played as the regular hero, the Wizard, and Contra guy. Didn't play Ultimate Evil hero (that crossed over with Contra guy) or the Axe guy.
This game is quite legit. I've gotten my money's worth and am quite happy. Such a complete and wonderful game. Admittedly, it can be tough (lots of kill pits in dungeons 3-5), but the Casual mode is right there and in-game cheat codes can also make things super easy as well.
10/10 - Highly recommended

At least the recent Provence outfit, the event reward, is really good.
Provence's character design and her two outfits are all very good. Unfortunately, her performance in battle is terrible and her lore is BORING.
I did the thing y'all :')
Trimmed Medal day one!

Maybe he'll hit the shop at some point.
Meanwhile, I just blew my yellow certs earmarked for Schwarz on Rosa, since Schwarz is available in Recruitment and Rosa is not. Feels bad though, been waiting for Schwarz to come back for a long while.
I don't need another Sniper I don't use.
