Fourth play through.

So many people who praise and highly rate this game still have caveats, like complaining about repetitive puzzles and saying “oh the combat isn’t actually supposed to be fun”

I have no idea what the fuck those people are on about.

The puzzles are too straightforward to be engaging and the world is too abstract to infer any interesting meaning, so when you start having to constantly swap through the orbs to rearrange things I couldn't take the tedium. The puzzles were not the main hook for me for Limbo or Inside and the same applied here, so the lack of compelling context in the world left me with zero desire to see things all the way through.

-1 star for not naming the company Vandelay Industries. That and the extremely average platforming sections and break-every-crate resource collection felt like filler between the highly engaging combat segments. Everything else, from the animation and sound to the characters to the aforementioned combat, are all incredible.
