The story, concept, and execution are almost perfect but there's something about the whole thing that left me just slightly cold. Feels like it's caught halfway between a much longer and much bigger open world space sandbox and a much shorter and smaller and more fully polished space puzzle game - simultaneously overpadded and underbaked. How can this be? Probably just me, not them, and so on. Plus the soundtrack's a delight. I think I recognize everything about this that everyone else loves so much. I just wish it hit those same pleasure centers in my own tired, aging brain.
