finished the game offstream at around the 2 hour mark.
overall i enjoyed this game a lot, the art and aesthetic is wonderful and fits the game well like a cartographer mapping out his surroundings, and the open world exploration was fun if a bit tedious at times because of your player's speed. but i like all the little secrets and optional content littered around the map that you can discover!
on the gameplay side i do prefer if the player was forced to use the crafting part of the game early cause its easily missable until you're forced to use it after beating the first boss (or if you read the manual but not everyone does)
combat is pretty basic but i do adore the how much options you're given when it came to mixing and matching items.
theme was the weakest part i guess. how i interpreted it in this game was the MC was telling the player the inhabitants exceeded expectations, but game wise it didn't really feel that way cause MC was just miles stronger than anyone of the tribes. (i would akin it to pikmin but olimar is almost defenseless without the pikmin, which isn't the case here)
despite all that i really enjoyed this game! good job!
