I wrote this review on grouvee when i played it last month and now im copy and pasting it here


You have played this exact game but at least it hasnt sounded, felt , or looked this good before.
got to act 3. The art design is beautiful the sound design is amazing the music is very fitting, the combat can be satisfying but this is essentially the frame of a ubisoft open world game. The narrative is straightforward and predictable and this would be a lot more palatable if there was a single COMPELLING character but there isn't not even really Jin. Jin's whole thing is his decent from an honorable warrior to someone who is willing to do anything to get his home back and since he is a very unemotive and dry character he comes off as more a character arc happening in front of you than someone you care for being drastically changed by the world around him. His character isnt bad and the side characters that flesh him out through dialogue arent that bad either, but that the problem is everything is "not that bad". I know its like peak hubris to say the game would have been better if blank but, Since it was a suckerpunch game I thought they were going to do an honor system where the world would change its view on you based on how you engaged in combat, which would add another layer to engaging with its systems and combat scenarios. It would have also been cool if the combat was even a little bit slightly challenging because then it would be even harder to fight enemies face on and you would have to choose carefully how you would want to engage. This would have caused Jins character arc, the gameplay, its difficulty, and your approach to that difficulty to all synergize. Instead it does not matter how you approach combat scenarios since the world and the story will still treat you as if you are doing the worst things imaginable to the mongols, and on top of that its very easy to just become a parry god. Even on the harder difficulties i would just play my flute while walking into camp and then parry attack, kill the guys who are terrorized, use bow and arrow bullet time on the bow enemies, use smokebombs to do to free assassins kills and then its like boom youve just taken out a act 3 big boy camp in like 3 minutes. I understand this couldnt have been done if they wanted to appeal to a larger audience or what not but hey its cool its a beautiful game, i think its worth playing, just nothing about it is going to stick with me other than what it could have been and maybe a lot of the world i mean man those beaches and trees look so pretty its a really really pretty game man.
