TL;DR Beautiful game, boring gameplay

Baby's first action rpg, really basic combat, stamina is the only thing keeping you from mashing, leveling is basic where stats are predecided, an immense amount of sidequests. Feel like every npc gives a quest which feels like none are there to build out the world. Very cool world though, if there was a little more punishment for death I'd call it "Baby's First Souls Like". One major gripe for me though, putting consumables on A, the same button as Interact is crazy stupid. I'd give this a mixed, small zones, but cool enemies, tons of side quests, but they're all fetch quests. Level ups controlled by one npc, so you need to fast travel every time you want to level. Since every quest is just blindly searching for items you may as well play with a walkthrough otherwise you're following along every wall with your camera pointed at the ground. Despite the enemies being cool they get reskinned pretty quick, and bosses you can walk away from and wait for your magic to come off cooldowns.
