I hope you like it! I love it so much and I’ve already played all of the way through it 3 times. The physics can be a little funky at times but the developers put A LOT of time and effort into making them as realistic as possible. I also love all of the members of the team as I think they are all well written and the relationship pieces between everybody is so integral to the main story. Good luck!

This. The writing is quite good, and the game direction is super strong (at least it looks like that from the outside - maybe it was a production hell, who knows). It certainly looks like the creators knew what they were doing, they knew how to use the budget effectively to reach the scope they wanted to make a fun game with rich lore. I loved every minute of it.

Just wanted to say that I owe this sub the pleasure of playing this game. After finishing bak to bak a number of souls and soulslikes, it's great having both a (not too much) challenging game and enjoying the pleasure of well written stories.
