A Plague Tale: Innocence reviews and comments
The good parts are the choice of weapons and upgrade path, pleasing sound and music, difficulty neither too high nor childish, the lights just appropriate for such a game themed around darkness. The length is also around 12 hours which is right for the genre.
What could've been improved though are the open-world interactions which are almost non-existent. You have to walk the chosen path only which reveals before you as you go. The other thing is that the gifts and findings don't seem to add any value. Finally, the post-ending scenes seemed completely useless and out of place.
But whatever, this game sure deserves some credit.
