this game is pure art.
The Combat system is seriously one of the best ever. its so crunchy. varied ,fluid, fun and cool looking
1. Story is an emotional one with a great Ending.
2. Characters are great.
3. Writing is very good.
4. Side Characters are interesting with deep stories to them.
5. The music is PERFECT. i rarely go and listen to a soundtrack more than once. and i always go back to this one.
6. Graphics... to say this game is beautiful wouldn't be enough. while you can find a muddy texture here and there the world design and art design are out of this world. so colourful and rich looking. hands down the best looking foliage of the Generation.
7. the guiding wind mechanic combined with the no UI approach this game takes is perfect.
8. Voice acting is solid throughout the game.
9. Expolaration is so zen and relaxing, but i would have liked more mini activities and such, you can only follow so many foxes lol.
this was my experience playing on a base PS4 when it came out. now with the expansion and added PS5 features it can only be better.. not that it needed it tbh.
