I'm rather conflicted on this game honestly. I definitely really enjoyed the story, although it takes longer than it should for it to be anything exciting.
The gameplay on the other hand, I am very mixed on. The pacing isn't always great, and it takes a while for your moveset to get interesting. Plus, there are a lot of RPG elements that feel a little out of place, and the encounter design can be tedious at times. But at its best, the game can be a lot of fun. There are a few really cool boss fights, as well as some encounters that are really well integrated into the story. The puzzles and environments are pretty neat sometimes too.
It's a game that has a lot going for it in terms of presentation, and it's clearly very high budget. But I feel that maybe it would've been better if it had been scoped down a bit.
