Hmm. So far there hasnt been all that much voice acting. Not sure if theres just a lot more later or they went budget on it. Atm I appreciate the battle voices a lot more then the actual dialogue. xD

For me what I appreciate the most is the artistical/graphical design of the areas (more like landscapes).

I dont know why, but they just feel both realistic and genuine beautiful at the same time, despite the lowish (compared to modern standards) raw quality of the assets.
Unlike something like Witcher 2 or Rise of the Tombraider, which have amazing raw quality but dont depict anything particular beatiful with that.

the exploration and the combat

The fact that I can dash spam jump up a cliff and travel at ridiculous speed and use this type of movement throughout the game. While I can't move as fast downhill or on a flat ground but it's still faster than running.
I love it. As I got places to be at and I'm not being hindered by movement.

Then we have Japanese voices, combat and all the active skills.

But the graphics are subpar at best. Only the characters look good where as the rest look like PS2 era of graphics.
It does though load super fast and runs at a constant 60 FPS for me.

Story is meh and the reasoning from the first main bad guy are just so bad. The people got along well before that person started to do bad things.
I do find though that the characters are a bit too stupid. Every time you decide to run after someone the person walks away and they go "Man he's quick!".
Or they look at the person going away and say "Man he got away from us!", he wouldn't IF you decided to actually after the bloody person.

Or how Adol have trouble remembering stuff from his dreams.

So story is badly done imo.

I love that you’re magically able to dash multiple times in the air while being airborne a long time. I think my record is up to like 4 dashes before I eventually hit the ground.

Overall, the possibility to move fast is extremely fun, especially while jumping around like a bunny everywhere.

Oh, and the combat, of course.

The battle gameplay is a perfect mix between Napishtim and Seven imo

I like the story but to my surprise, the characters? I rather be adol and only him, and eventually dana bc she's a qt.
get sick of switching characters tbh and sahad and generic tsun laxia are starting to get annoying.

exploration is fun. battle is fun.
I think the older ys games have better bosses and combat tbh. just felt different.

I like seeing the hq grow but the going back and forth to find people is starting to feel boring and a slog to get new people. legit gameplay wise I have like 5 hours. the progression feels really slow but that's maybe bc I crashed 90000 times

This is really well made. I'm getting lost all the time despite there is a map.
