Was pretty interested in giving this a shot after how highly it was rated, and I have to say I'm pretty disappointed.
The music is generic and doesn't even have a proper beat, making it way more difficult than it should be to hit attacks at the correct time. Everything feels like it has a delay to it, making every move feel extremely slow.
The writing is horrendous. People crucified games like Forspoken over this type of writing, but for some reason it gets a free pass here. It is the most exaggerated, annoying, cringe writing I've ever had to endure. Every line that comes out of the main character's mouth makes me want to put the game on mute.
I assume the reason this is so highly rated is because of the "style", which is pretty neat I guess. It's cool how the environment reacts to the beat. But other than that, there's nothing here worth experiencing.
