Basic character control is very nice, combat is fun and movement is fluent but opening doors, waiting for loading screens, unnecessary dialogues, etc cuts the game so much also there isn't any level design to support this character especially invisible walls, and pixel perfect jumps are big problems. Not only level design, but the game loop is also just straight up isn't fun backtracking, fetch quests, and playing the game over and over again...It's just disappointing to see from a vision like this. When I say vision I mean everything else, amazing world-building, loveable characters (to some extent) but the problem with the story is it has that jrpg quality dialogues and cliches I tolerate these things in other Jrpgs but it just doesn't work for game like this. And story aside, the storytelling is amazing just like NieR Automata, this game uses the powers of the medium for telling its story. Art Direction is great, the sounds, especially the music, are amazing, and the atmosphere is captivating so yeah I love everything about this game except the dialogue and the overall design which are two of the most important things in games for me. I was going to give it a 3/5 but now I had a great playlist thanks to this game so I'm going to give this one a 3.5.
