AER is a very very pretty game, let me make that perfectly clear. The first hour or so is just full of moments of explorative wonder as you explore ruins, solve some basic puzzles and glide across floating Islands. It's soothingly and very serene...

But then deja vu really starts kicking in and you realise the games already shown most of what it has to you and suddenly, despite the game being pretty short, it still manages to feel dragged out thanks to repeated landscapes, similar looking ruins and a game running on empty.
