    Yeah, I finished the game wishing it would be a higher recommendation, but it just falls short on a lot of things. I don’t mind the price I paid for it, but it’s a hard sell even at $29.99 (summer sale price).

    The top things to me were setting, animation (feels like clay/stop motion in a cool way), and setting. But the fighting is only okay (never really evolves beyond button smashing and dodging), the story doesn’t really build on itself, and the platforming is generic and linear.

    It also doesn’t help this is an Xbox studios game, since it seems like a bit more time/money would have gone far for this game.
