the main villain of the game is a better kylo ren than kylo ren

with that out of the way, this game is kinda rough around the edges, but if you can get past it, you'll find a great game with simple yet satisfying combat, good characters, a decent story, nice visuals, fantastic music and just in general a ton of fun
sure, theres a crappy ice level with some of the worst ice physics you've seen (albeit fixed once you get the stone boots), some bosses that make you wanna pull your hair out, wonky platforming, some deaths will seem cheap, you cant pause in bosses, some enemies are just straight up annoying, and god forbid anything force you to use the fire ball power
but in all that rough, there is a diamond
going through the ys series, this one might be my favorite title so far
though i do miss the bump combat of the first two games
