The medium matters. And context does too. This is a videogame. I have to play through your content. You are writing what I assume is a book or comic.

I’m Sos case, those first 5 hours are useless. Does it help to know where the main protagonists came from? Sure. It adds to the story. But if I have to play through that and none of that ends up being relevant to the story, then it was filler content.

I saw a comment where they compared this game to chrono trigger, saying how in 5 hours toy had traveled back and forth through time twice, rescued a princess, got in a trial for kidnapping and added 5 characters to your party.

I finished it. I’ll start with the good.

Visually it’s gorgeous. Super polished. Combat is good. Nothing ground breaking. A lot of love went into this game. Controls are tight… Music is great the first 15 hours. Memorable tunes. And there are versions of them. Like a day version, night version.

The bad The story is absolutely pointless. The first 5 hours serve no purpose to the game. It really gets going around hour 20, but by then they’re wrapping it up. The last 2 hours are essentially a boss rush. Just one boss after the other. Getting the true ending is a grind and not worth it at all. Combat is OK. Nothing ground breaking. The best skills show up around hour 20. Forgettable dialogs and zero character development.

I backed this on Kickstarter. Never again. I’d give it a 7. Only because it really is visually amazing and polished. They get a 10 there. Its the only thing that balances the average.
