Waited many years since it was first showcased as "Project Eve". The wait was definitely worth it.
My main reason for picking up the PS5 as I've been a huge follower of ShiftUp with Nikke and a bit of Destiny Child. The game is packed with amazing combat, beautiful art and scenery, incredible soundtrack that I can listen to for hours, many unlockables, and side story with main story tying everything so well together. I couldn't ask for a better game.
Been enjoying the game as intended in its original v1.000.000 as I purchased both digital deluxe and physical copy to show support. 20 hours in demo, 97 hours first playthrough, and many more on NG+. Hard mode is really awesome!
Many complain about fluidity of combat versus 1.002.000 saying the combat "probably" garbage/unplayable pre-patch but they couldn't be more wrong, and I've played both versions. I have had no issues executing perfect parry and perfect dodge in quick sucession whatsoever. Like any other game in existence, just need time and practice.
I hope many many others are able to enjoy the game as I have and continue to enjoy!
Thank you ShiftUp!
