Isn’t this quite the sleeping pill? Though surprisingly it gets better later as you get a dragon but the storybook art looks nice. Just wish people didn’t act like this was great from the getgo. I never imagined needing a load time for platforms let alone why walk so slow and it be playable?
This is at least 5 mins of boring pacing that a cutscene could’ve taken over but then some still shots are pointless too, but faster than the ladder.
Remember to automate page turning in options, so cutscenes won't feel as stilted. I am glad the story picks up right after the recording ends, but this wasn't a good first impression at launch.
On a serious note, I’m glad the price went down a bit from $60 at some places and I gave it a second shot as there is some potential when the game finally lets you play without limiting so much.
Your demo (doubt the full game is any different let alone a year passed) save also transfers as well, and it’s more appropriate than the bayonetta games (which just felt like fetishized violence).
