It is worth every cent. The amount of work, passion and love that went into making this game is really unparalleled, especially by today's standards. I will support devs like Moon Studios every chance I get!

If you like this kind of games... YES. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ yes. But be wary that a "definitive edition" is on its way, so you may want to wait for that.
I'll pay double for it, the whole experience just perfect for me in many ways, it beat many AAA title in my book and I'm not a guy who play 2d platformer actively

I grabbed Ori on the Summer Sale for about $12. And I feel filthy about it. After playing, I can say Ori Is worth full price. And I don't mean "full price" on Steam. I'm talking full $40-$60 AAA physical release type "full price."

At 7-10 hours for a typical first playthru, It's short compared to the games I used to. By the end credits, I was giving the game a standing ovation.

But having said that, there are a couple potential deal breakers.

1]Definitive Edition (game plus the upcoming DLC) is supposed to be later this year. Although owners of the original edition will be able to upgrade at a "very comfortable price." This was announced three days after I beat the game. But I didn't feel cheated at all. I was stoked for more Ori.

2]Don't let the cute exterior fool you. There's a few brutal difficulty spikes, the first around 30% completion. I remember those struggles with a mix of frustration and fondness, even if they are easy for me now.

3]Certain areas cannot be revisited and you cannot load your game complete save at all once you reach the end credits to bask in your power or search for collectables you missed.

Definitely. And this is coming from someone who thought the W3 sucks.

Wait till they fix the problem with Microsoft gamepad right trigger not working, because you will swear a lot.

Some controllers have issues. I ran a $15-$20 (assuming USA on cost) Logitech F310 and had no porblems.
Windows 10 with Xbox1 controller has a workaround but it's a pain in the butt.

If it's JUST the R2 button that doesn't work, you should be able to manage just running keyboard during the R2 required parts until about 45% map completion. Or even controller and just have finger ready to hold shift. Certainly not an ideal solution, but works for the first half of the game since the R2+can't take .5-1second of user looking at keboard to find the button doesn't show until about halfway.

The price is not Worth the game. The Game Is worth at least 40$.

Personally, this is one of my favorite games of all time. It's right up there with Super Metroid and A Link to the Past. There is some difficult platforming that frustrates some people but I don't think it's too hard. Overall the game controls awesomely and feels fluid.

But for $20 on Steam? Worth every penny, buy it.
I'd rather get it on pc. I personally don't like the Xbone
