Since this is the first game from an animation studio, you can easily why the cutscenes are fantastic and why the combat is quite lacking. Devoid of weight and impact to the melee hits. However, this gets a bit better with the introduction of the bow and bombs abilities.

The story is nothing to write home about but the great presentation and a honestly great score keeps you going through the short 15 hours experience. Edit: Apparently my timer is broken and you can finish this one in like 6-8 hours lol
