The only reason this game loses half a star is because the port on the Switch fucking sucks, and I'm not gonna buy an XBox just for this game.

This game is amazing. The combat issues from the first game are resolved and then some, this game has a combat focus that is fun and challenging, while keeping all of the same exciting movement mechanics and even adding more to them.

If you've ever wanted to run, dash, slide, swing and swoop through a Metroid-vania like a parkour master, this game is it. Really loved this, tried to 100% it but side quests start to have diminishing returns after a while.

The story is very touching, very sad. But an ultimate ray of hope helps brighten what was otherwise a very difficult middle act full of despair. Wow, did not expect a game like this to really hit me in the feels.
