To me, this game nailed the artistic side that video games have, I really liked the style, the music, the characters, the voice acting and even the story was enjoyable, although not incredible either.
However, I am really disappointed in the gameplay, the whole premise was to fight in sync with the music... but i never ONCE felt that, combat is extremely simplistic and boring, the "transformation" ability feels like a waste of a character mechanic and walking around the world felt very pointless. If the main content of the game is to fight bosses, I would very much prefer a more in-depth and interesting combat system instead of collecting items in the world and talking to character that don't add or matter to the gameplay or narrative. I enjoyed it the most during DK West boss fight, because I didn't have to fight him normally.
