Very mixed about this game. Maybe more on the negative side.

First 10-15 hours in i was interested in the story. Visuals were great, facial textures were amazing, voice acting was superb. Ambient was dark and gritty. I was hooked. But here comes the semi open world then it lost me. Side activies, quests telling me go here go there find this and that come back and that. Not that i dont like doing quest or exploring world but its how the world is designed to make you suffer.

Travelling in this game is a pain the the arse.

The issue is you are constantly slowed down by rock climbing/repeling up/down, passing between rocks, passing through rocks, crouching under rocks. Always in this 3-5 second animations. IT IS SO OVERDONE.
One thing thats not explained you sometimes dash higher or far places with Antea but that only %10 of the game in which you have to align yourself with some magical rings ?? Why not use it all the time ??? Why make Red suffer climbing rocks and sh!t.???
Although there are bonfires to fast travel, you still need to walk A LOT. You backtrack A LOT. Its a huge world or maybe feels like it because of this tiresome walking.

Enemy types are lacking, you fight 5-6 monsters over and over again and it just drags. Combat was fun though.

Easily 50+ hours gameplay but surely a bland and monotonous one.
