This game is ass 4/10

If you hate puzzles, don't bother playing this game. if you do, then play this game. I am neutral towards puzzles in games, but Hob's puzzles are very enjoyable nontheless, mainly because I pretty much solved all of them by myself (no I havent finished the game yet). They don't exactly like hold your hands, you are basically off to wander on your own and figure out how to do stuff. (I love it)

First complaint, I dont really get why that big robot who gave his arm talks, its not like we can understand it. Everytime hes on the screen hes like RMBR GRAGHN and its goofy as hell. But its fine, its not like its ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ up my experience when playing the game, I like the big guy. Second, I know this is supposed to be environmental storytelling, but I still dont know ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ about the story. Usually stories keep me motivated to play the intended game, but unfortunately I am lost in Hob. The gameplay is decent enough (and Im pretty good at the game) so I kept playing it. Third, movements and combat are janky as hell. I don't know if its just because I use mouse and keyboard, but ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ bro it just feels super clunky. Of course, after 7 hours, Im already used to it, but sometimes it still bounds to get me irritated and it sucks.

(EDIT) (SPOILERS!)
I have finished the game. I still dont understand why they let the characters speak when they are literally speaking gibberish. The boss on one of the other routes is not hard, the only reason why its pretty difficult is because of the arena you have to fight in. Its a garbage final arena. Anyways, I picked against the uh curse queen first and defeated that clone prick and Im pretty satisfied with the ending. When I tried the second ending where I accept the queen handshake and ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ credits roll. Then after that a little bit of after credits scene which is pretty grim for the future of the world. the big man is not even there and the golem who gave our hand I think is searching for hob? Idk but it definitely feels like a terrible ending, and Im glad I picked the against the curse queen. Combat is janky as hell, but I ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ love the puzzles! I solved them all by myself (yes im very proud of that) unlike botw so they got that going for it.

Overall yeah I like the game. Its fun to solve the puzzles and save those weak ass small creatures. The game is pretty as hell and I love the world design. Feels like a watered down zelda game but again yeah Its good. 8/10

(WARNING! : SPOILERS) (20 hrs playtime review)
Someone who recommended me this game told me it was relaxing. It was not in my opinion.

First of all, I really wished there were more dialogues to every NPCs because ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ do I hear them say the same ♥♥♥♥ everyday, even after I full hearted them. Every heart unlocks like a speck of dialogue and very shallow events. Some events doesn't even have a proper ending that they ended so abruptly. Like for example, I think like two of Sam events was just me trying to save his ass. Like him dropping egg in the kitchen. What an important event for his life huh. Sam's events did come up to a decent conclusion though so overall its a mixed bag. (Haley is definitely the best imo, second to Emily which I think snorts a ♥♥♥♥ ton of crack)

Second, time moves fast. (I don't know if this game is inspired by harvest moon or not but im getting a big impression that it does) So, I think the time should move way slower because you almost can't do a lot of things at the same time. Unlike harvest moon (FoMT to be specific) the time stops when you either go to the caves or any house/building. The problem is that most of the houses open at 9 which in my opinion is a stupid time to open (Unless you have a big farm it is very unlikely you will enter the house immediately.) . You already drained enough energy every mining in caves, so I dont think time should be moving because I want to do other things too, I want to talk to the other people and fish and cut woods.

Third, the punishment for dying or fainting by loss of energy is so stupid. You lost sum of money and items. and Maru came to pick you up. Gee I wonder who took my stuff. The action is servicable so I don't have any major complaints of it.

Overall, if you havent played FoMT, I think this is like the modern version of it, just slightly shallowed, like what happened between Oblivion and Skyrim. It's very fun, and I think the progression throughout this game is decently designed.

8/10

Did satan develop this game? because my god it is very unforgiving. Obviously, unforgiving in a good way.

Very good game, but its dying at a slow pace. Very sad, I can't even go to coven without waiting for at least 15 minutes to find another person.

If you have played these games before, you will enjoy it again. If you havent, you might enjoy MORE or LESS. This game is definitely not for everyone, but for me it holds special memories in my heart. If you didnt like the style of the early games you might like SaS 4 better.

the game is cool, i mean the atmosphere in this game is amazing. the story is super bland tho, it feels like a grade schooler's essay homework. there is not a lot of RPG tropes in this game, even though its and RPG game. Still good though, wouldnt mind replaying it again. The map is very enjoyable.

oblivion is good, both the meme and the game respectively.

good story very underrated game

GOOD GAME I BURNED MY FAMILY
