I have seen great reviews of the game and I was thinking it was something my daughter might like on PS4. So maybe I will look into getting it for her and then I will play it.
So far at least, not terribly puzzly, more roam around and do things. Back to @Papageno, I had to allow the goddamned Ubi app to fuck with my computer no less than seven times, and then it needed 7GB to install. WTF, honestly?
This thing ate my weekend. The pacing is just about perfect, and there’s a learning curve kicking in where the puzzles are becoming more of a, “Look how clever and quick I am on this one!” rather than “Where is the friggin’ brazier I have to light/stone I have to find?” Working on my second god now and I’m a bit overpowered, I dipped into Tartarus to get my winged friend and it showed me I have a ways to go.
Some of those underground vaults or whatever are crazy hard though, particularly when they have flying sections where you have to simultaneously avoid falling boulders and/or lasers. I feel like Sigourney Weaver’s character in Galaxy Quest when I see things like that.
Ugh, I haven’t hit those yet but I’m not looking forward to it. Playing on mouse and keyboard, the precision flying is a pain in the butt. When I’m required to use the godly power for extra boost, I wind up just smashing my flipper on every key and falling out of the sky.
Ran into my first one I noped on. Just too spastic trying to pull off the godly moves in midair, and the inability to turn at any sort of rate to get back to an updraft beat me.
I’ve finished the first plot island and “unlocked” two others, I’m in no rush to push the main plot.
Hrmph. I hate this game, because I love this game. It has consumed me. I’m powering through just to get it behind me. There’s just never not something to do, and there are things to do on the way, and things that were annoyingly difficult ten hours ago are now rewardingly challenging but doable. I’ve even sort of figured out the air boost godly to glide to stamina potion to more glide recipe.
I’m curious, does this game have any adult humor or language? Also, is any violence pretty cartoony? I would like to play with my kid (7 years old), but not sure if it would be suitable for him.
