i really enjoyed scarlet nexus but it's not without it's flaws. the story is... serviceable i guess? kinda disjointed and overly ambitious with plenty of twists and turns that don't have the impact they should but still competent enough where i was interested to see what happened next. as long as you go in with your expectations tempered then you'll still find something to enjoy about it.

the gameplay is fast, frenetic and just downright fun in which hauling cars, street lamps and debris with the power of psychokinesis towards enemies never got old. not to say combat is perfect as an awkward lock on system, floaty controls and a god awful camera tend to sour the experience.

music is phenomenal. nothing really else to say. i can't remember a single tune which i disliked which speaks for the quality. the suoh city theme is gonna be stuck in my head for ages and i'm okay with that :')

(i've only completed yuito's route and will be playing kasane's soon so i can only speak for my experience playing as yuito).
