Absolutely blown away by this game. Simply stellar. I started it back in 2018 and for whatever reason after ten hours or so I stopped playing and kept telling myself I'd eventually get back to it. But then I was stuck in this limbo of hesitating to jump back in or starting from scratch. With the hype growing for Silksong, I decided that enough was enough and it was finally time to return. 107% completion ain't too shabby, might eventually do the boss rushes but not compelled at the moment.
Whew, what an epic game. An "Oops, all minigames" middle chapter to the utmost degree and I had so much fun. The final act had a bit of tedium to it especially after 120 hours or so but the spectacle of it all made up for it. Its greatest strength (aside from the non-stop amazing music) is the character work amongst the party. Still in awe of a studio not only remastering a classic but reimaging it in great fashion. Can't wait for the conclusion.
First off, this game is amazingly gorgeous, just astounding. I do hope the human cost to bring us this world wasn't too high but it's something I often think of with these massively beautiful and sprawling games. Movement both on foot and in the air felt so good. You really feel that you're a Na'vi, especially in comparison to the puny humans. And there was far more complexity in the story and the characters than I was expecting. Really good game, looking forward to the DLC.

What a return to this franchise. I absolutely loved the early aughts games and the reveal of this one was promising to say the least. What an amazing game in the metroidvania genre and to think it wasn't even that when they started the dev process! Looking forward to going back to 100% this one. I really hope they continue this new (old) take on PoP and we get more of these.
