This is a game that kinda falls in between a No and a Yes when deciding what to vote on. I'll list the cons and pros that I found when 100% the game.

Pros:
+ Art style is great, absolutely love it.
+ Soundtrack is actually really well done. Great mix of tracks that are very ambient and have alot of depth. Suited the game very well.
+ Skill system is pretty nice, getting powerups and beinh able to improve 6 different aspects is a good baseline.

Cons:
- The puzzles in this game is way to extreme. You have to be extremely intelligent and put ALOT of time into reading the in-game-manual if you want to 100% this game without a guide, ALOT of the puzzles, not a few of them, made me think after following a guide for the secret treasures and fairies that there's absolutely no way in hell anyone would figure this out casually. There must have been some extreme theory crafting from the community to figure out all of the stuff in this game.
- The combat. It's actually really, really bad. Had this game had combat like "Hades", the game would actually be a VERY, VERY good game. Instead, it's clunky, it's slow, it's punishing. Very poorly balanced.

The negatives sadly overweighs the positives quite heavily. It's clear what the devs had in mind, a Zelda game with a twist, with mixed influences from Dark Souls. But nothing really hit the spot, they really did nothing right that Souls and Zelda did amazingly.

I can't really recommend this game. The first few hours was quite enjoyable, but the end was very sluggish to get through. The game looks and sounds great, but a game can't just be about visuals, the gameplay have to be there. Sadly this one doesn't hit it.

This game was actually really, really freaking good. Loved alot of aspects in this game, the soundtrack, the platforming, the combat. I like that they kinda made a 3D Metroidvania, we need more games like these for sure.

Too bad it's published by the worst company of all time, EA. They force you to install their launcher to play this game. Also, you can't play this game offline, since the game needs to connect to their servers.

Way to go EA, can you be less ♥♥♥♥ please for the next title?

I took 1 week of vacation to play this game 16 hours a day non stop for 7 days.

100% worth it.

A masterpiece by FromSoft.

Really wish there was something between Yes or No as for recommendation choices.

I will make this short.

Don't make a currency/reward that's utter useless and just feels bad when you get it. I just can't for the life of me understand what the hell the game devs were thinking putting these useless crystals in the game for.

Just cleared a hard trial chest? Here's some useless crystals to buy a cosmetic hat that does aboslute nothing.

Game has a lot of minor flaws that just add upp, but I still want this game to be good. I just wished they did this game right.

Music is great, it's just implemented wrong. If I'm exploring a forest that contains shrines with some puzzles of fights, I don't just want a freaking lame ambient to be playing. You have some great tracks for this game, FREAKING USE THEM!? Legit the first time I'm baffled at how this gets through playtesting, how does no one notice stuff like this?

I will still recommend this, but it's VERY close to being not recommended.

I got a very strong passion for this game in the first 5 minutes. It's the first time ever I've gotten so insanely hooked on game so fast. It's extremely well made and for me is one of the best games I ever played for sure.

- The soundtrack is a pure 10/10. Can't get enough of it.
- The amount of voice acting is HUGE. Can't even start to imagine how much dev time this game have.
- The feeling of constantly getting better is always there, which makes every escape feel valuable.

In the name of Hades, I give this game 10/10.

Masterpiece of a game, sadly, ruined by game breaking bugs.

I think this is the 4th game in a row that I now downvote solely because of bugs and glitches not being patched.

Does devs really care ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ for their customers these days?

No Steam Achievements. Seems abandonded.

Refunded.

Will buy if they implement Steam Achievements, like they have for all other platforms aswell as the sequel.
