It has a cool concept, the presentation is super impressive and it has some amazing environments.
But the gameplay has only a few interesting ideas and it repeats itself a lot. Feels like the game could be half as long, given the lack of ideas.
The "puzzles" aren't really puzzles as they require no brain power but usually just eyeing around for shapes and things.
The fight "scenes" carry that cinematic effect that the game pulls off but quickly get pretty repetitive.
The story tries hard to sound epic and deep but I often didn't feel immersed, and you get fed a bunch of norse mythology which isn't really relevant.
Oh, and the end credits song is an absolute cringe.

All in all, I still would recommend "experiencing" it to appreciate some of the scenarios, but it's not a great game. Maybe the sequel can be better if they have more interesting ideas on what to do while also going through a better story.
