This game was truly a beauty and a hidden gem.
It was surprisingly difficult at the beginning, almost frustrating to challenge enemies that felt incredibly stronger than you.
I played this game in "spirit guide mode" and playing it, felt really like you were growing up as a guide, mastering the skills and the new abilities.
Graphics were spectaculars.
Lore in this game is also incredibly well done.
this subtle theme that changing is needed, that fighting something bigger than you always brings consequences, that being together is stronger than being alone and that pain is necessary, although also maddening, were all interesting themes.
I decided to not master it (or achieve 100%) cause honestly, navigating on this world was like getting lost in a maze.
the lack of a minimap made the "exploration" even more frustrating for me, as i was hitting dead ends and getting lost on the same roads.
Boss figths went from frustrating and challenging, to graphically beautiful and i honestly felt a bit sad to beat these guys.
they killed me a lot, but fighting them was one of the most amazing gaming experiences i ever had this far.

in conclusion:
if you're looking for a game where you want to strategize more than just smashing buttons, this game is for you.
