This took me a long time to complete. After walking away from it out of frustration for months at a time, finally got around to finishing it tonight. The game is great from the start and extremely challenging at some points (there were a few random levels that were the death of me). Even though I was really frustrated at times, the challenge was perfect. It kept me engaged the entire time and kept me excited for the next level. I never once got bored. This is definitely one of my favorite games I’ve played in recent years.

After completing this game and thinking on it for a few days, I've come to the conclusion that I really liked this game. I had some issues with the mechanics of the game (mind you, I REFUSED to play with motion controls so partially my fault) I thought the story was solid, the dungeons were solid, the bosses were challenging. Though, environmentally sometimes repetitive ("Go back to these three locations AGAIN."), I never really found myself bored playing this game. The character development was outstanding (#TeamGroose). Though I can't say Id ever replay it, I really enjoyed it for what it was.
