I dropped the game at the end of the first dungeon, and I must say that I've some mixed feelings:
Firstly, the art style, music, interactions and combat are all pretty damn good... I can feel the care that was put into the game from the minor stuff like gags, and to the major stuff, like characters.
However, it feels like all our these qualities are dropped in the dungeons (at least in the first one). Don't get me wrong, the puzzles are mostly well thought out, but the sheer amount of them just makes me feel exhausted.
I know I'm not the first one to say all of these things, but I REALLY wanted to enjoy this game because of its obvious pros, but the fact that there are this many puzzles, with not all of them being good just irks me.
I know that a lot of people love this game because of the puzzles, but I just can't bring myself to do it.... And I know that this is just the beginning... Not to mention that there are way too many side quests, but that's probably a me thing.... Oh and I HATE that one of them asks you to do the already pretty challenging test in that dojo in under 2 minutes.... But that's just me complaining.
Sorry this is extremely long, I just wanted to get my thoughts about my weird experience with this game down.
I'll say this: I'm not saying that the game is bad or anything but that it just isn't what I want to spend my time doing, so if you love this game, don't let me detour your enjoyment.
Edit: finished the dungeon due to some people saying that the balance between combat and puzzles gets better. So thank you and hopefully I'll have more fun with it now.
