The game really holds your attention from the very start - and I mean from the start menu alone. Just the starting screen sets out a tone for the game. It has the atmosphere of mystery, the dark intertwined with the light - the music and art work really well together and combined with the story itself I should not be surprised how easily I got hooked.
I admit, I was a bit confused at first, since the created world has it's own rules and terms I was unfamiliar with, but it was getting clearer and clearer as I progressed which, looking back, fits beautifully with our character who woke with no memory whatsoever.
Just in the Act 1 there was quite a lot branching and varying results depending on our choices - it was interesting going back and checking different choices to see how it would affect the outcome. And what outcomes they were! There's definitely a lot of potential and I'm eager to see how the story unfolds.
P.S. I only knew Ilar for 3 days but I love them with my whole heart.
