Understandably a heavy game but felt surprisingly light

Omori had some cool ideas but sadly felt like it really relied on the shock value of the content here to really have some emotional impact that sadly didn't land with me not to mention just being way too long for its own good.

The game does have a unique art direction/style that does look pretty nice and the music is actually alright but it couldn't save much of the experience for me.

I really feel like this game is way longer than it really should be and feels like a lot of it felt like filler compared to the actual decent moments of the story. The combat having a unique twist still felt really basic and the horror moments just felt completely flat here including specific story elements I don't want to spoil as well.

Omori certainly has the style but doesn't lack any substance that ticks the box for what would be considered a good RPG for me but I get why people like this game considering the content in it.
