Non cheat code secret characters & non linear unlocks

[Sippio]

My God the rabbit hole of the VS fandom wiki page is never ending.
After i finally was able to beat the bone board relic of rolling skeletons (no mad groove)
i realized ive only scratched the surface...

~I'd like VS Jedi Ninja to flex what they think would help.

~The reason im hesitant w/ 'codes' is from San Andreas back in the day God Mode.
Which for sure meant i Bored-Quit 2-3 days later. <Lesson Perma Learnt!

~If there's already a good thread on this i think it should be a sticky.
I could care less if it's mine or someone elses..

I just saw the two characters that each start with a bird.
And the QueenLady w/ the Super Sword.
And i still need the merchant dude..

~VS Joke of the day= I was booted up XboxSX & was like
no way when did Redfall come out.. 100GB download install
later & My god was it awful. So i doubled down & said maybe it's me
tried again & said i could fix the frame rate by playing it on PC(gamepass)
but b4 i got to that i realized it was irrelevant due to everything else being
lame to AVG at best.. This is a Xbox360 era game w/ PS4/XboxOne era graphics.
I shoulda known after Deathloop that Arkane was headed towards this style of
cool concept w/ mediocre game within...
So the joke is how much better a $5 1 GB Vampire Survivor game is
then a 100GB AAA Vampire game is....
