Sweet review, Rob, one of my favorites of yours in a long time. You really painted a picture of what it feels like to play this game. I feel sort of guilty now about sending it to you, but relieved to have dodged a bullet. I suspected that you'd do a great job covering it and you've proven me right!

"Too often we enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought." - John F. Kennedy on reality

"What if everything you see is more than what you see--the person next to you is a warrior and the space that appears empty is a secret door to another world? What if something appears that shouldn't? You either dismiss it, or you accept that there is much more to the world than you think. Perhaps it really is a doorway, and if you choose to go inside, you'll find many unexpected things." - Shigeru Miyamoto on secret doors to another world2

I could have gone on more if I wanted to bloat the review. Because every time I think of a positive, there's a matching negative.

Like, I thought about bringing up how the voice acting is far better than you'd expect from a blah game. But then, I'd have to bring up how the mood whiplashes between "high drama in the Middle Ages" to "action buddy film bantering".

Guhh...
