This game is painfully short. I enjoyed the overall concept (it reminded me a lot of fallout new vegas) and gameplay overall it was a bit rng based but i dont mind it. most of the characters presented are decent (lem and mina the goat) but again the game is extremely short that we barely even got to interact with them as much. I also kinda wished we had some sort of endscreens, still cutscenes couldve also done wonders because almost all the endings in this game kinda ends super abruptly but overall its a pretty decent game.

This game blows. It is an animal crossing knockoff but somehow worse in every single aspect. All you do in this game is oh find this thing oh find that thing, fish this catch that craft this cook that its errand/chore simulator. Which is unfortunate because i love doing errands in games which is why i even bothered to stay as long as i could. But still,the fact that it took me 60 hours to finish this game is blasphemous. Why the real time...They could have also just tried to let people time travel i think that would 100% fix a lot of this games problem, i mean ♥♥♥♥ it fixes animal crossing problems.

The game has very nice visuals, gameplay is garbage, the characters are hit and miss (mostly miss) and their interactions arent really that unique from one another. Everything about the game is very underutilized and barely serves any real purpose. There are also way better games that handles death much more beautifully and engaging (like Spiritfarer). I very rarely not recommend people to play a game because it is normal for some people to like and not like anything, but this game is not good.

I personally do feel like everyone should at one point try this game once in their lives. It is a special and fully crafted game, which mind you is extremely rare these days. Theres just so much content in the base game alone it is overwhelming.

2/3 parts of the game is perfectly crafted. I feel like within those timespans, all enemies are perfectly balanced and fun to fight against with even the small enemies is fun to fight with. caves unfortunately are the worst parts of the game theyre great early on since theyre unique but as more caves go on it would just be variations or just tow of the same miniboss, its dissapointing to say the least, and hardly even worth it sometimes. still though, the surface content is fun, the main bosses are glorious, and the progression is great. i rocked myself a collosal greatsword throughout the whole gameplay, and enjoyed my time with it.

questlines are handled horribly, i think if this game included like a journal book or something that does not provide handholding but just records the conversations i think it would help tremendously. it would have been a hundred percent more tolerable. most of them dont tell you anything and they be as cryptic as possible, hey little tarnished take this sword and give it to a man good luck like what? thats just terrible quest design no matter how you put it. puzzles are also cryptic and is soemtimes almost impossible without a guide its just such a weird choice to put it in the game.

the endgame is actually unfortunately the worst parts of the game. the enemies can kill you in 3 hit, and they themselves are also spongy, and they introduce bosses into normal enemies you encounter occasionally, its just bad. its poor game design at best, at an attempt to make the game difficult. and the final boss is so boring its unbelievable. its unlucky how bad it is in the end but ultimately the game is still fantastic from the start. I personally enjoyed my time with it.

Extremely brief game.
Art is vibrant and nice to look at, soundtrack is decent, and the platforming is nothing to write home about.
But hey its a pretty cute game at the end of the day.
Kinda made me realize that maybe i dont have that severe of an anxiety.

What an unfortunate release. I will forever despise EA for their wrongdoings. Dragon Age could have been a glorious series, but now both the sequels live under their debuts shadow. but for what it's worth though, even despite it's massive shortcomings, I still quite enjoyed the time I spent on Dragon Age 2. Although you cant really play as your own character since you assume the role of Hawke, Hawke is a very well written character and I also quite enjoyed the companions' uh company. The gameplay is probably the worst part of the game I really don't like how they keep adding enemies when youre in a fight that blows but otherwise its decent and gets the job done.

Love this game.
But roguelikes all have the same problem, although you might be very skillful you are still very dependent on your drops, you RNG.
Some items just straight up ruin your whole run (such as that blue item that turns your hp into shield that ♥♥♥♥ was terrible) and the mask that can literally kill you.
Some of the bosses also have ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ abilities (grandparent specifically with that burning nuke) its just ruining all fun that was had during the whole run. it sucks
so uh 8-/10

great game

Cruise around the wasteland with your bird (and petting them uncontrollably). Travel with extreme speed and grace. Solve puzzles and find out that you don't need to overthink it. Battle against corrupted gods and a poser to essentially make everyone pathless. All using a bow, assist of our friend(s), and a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ solid determination.

Firstly, this game's artstyle is beautiful. I love almost everything about it. Every sections are very well put together, and flows seamlessly. Everything is just simply gorgeous.

Traversal is so fun. I think it is subjective, because I can see how it can be boring for people. But me personally I loved it. The only thing that hinders the movement flows is water. I think if theyd make that she could run across water it would be so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ cool. but oh well.

I think the whole sections is a little bit too empty (which makes sense) but there should at least one psycopath homeless man residing in the evil god's territory. That's just how humans usually are, they adapt to every situations. But you dont get to meet any other humans. As only corpses leave lores and it's kinda unfortunate. Also the main character really is just one dimensional. But her interactions with the birdo is cute so I still give her a pass

Anyways great game
