it was just like pinstripe which was the creators first game. the puzzles are not clear and some mechanics are just too time sensitive and punishing considering this being a casual story. I'm left frustrated a lot more than experiencing a good story. it has good art and some humor . but for a short game the back tracking and puzzle figuring just make the game look a bit longer than it was made for. I dont recommend this
Reminded me a bit of old Lara Croft, but all puzzle and no action... just the way I like it!

It is very hard game, I wanted to complete it, but even with cheats in mame it is hard.
not bad. starting was okay. but towards the end it becomes linear and the characters have good humor and gets good. didn't bother to do the optional content after the story gets linear . too many indie games are depending on art and being wonky and funny , this does it a bit right. i am losing interest with all indie games having somewhat same style in the design . need more good stories.
Is it the gaming revolution we where promised? No.
Is it a good game? Yes. But also No.
The cyberpunk universe has lots of potential for interesting translations into gaming, but this title feels half cooked. The main story is drowned in a sea of openworld sidequests, icons and secondary fluff.
It is visually the most stunning example of what current graphics can do on PC, but it is also mixed with the most broken aritficial intelligence of enemies and npc.
The cinematics are good but still behind even those of the original Mass Effect. The most memorable moments dont come from the main story but from sidequests.
The core loop of the game is going from one main quest to the other, while doing some sidequest to grind the cash needed for the very expensive gear and all that while driving for the most part.
The issues start here: the driving is below average, even worse then GTAV and that's an achievement on his own.
The combat with a controller, even with snap-targeting is clunky, requiring a smart targeting pistol to become partially enjoyable or switching to close combat fights with shotguns and melee, the latter being overpowered.
The economy is unbalanced overall with excessive prices even for mid-tier level items, which causes the player to ignore shops and loot everything, triggering the next issue: unsatisfactory loot. The felling is of a homeless person picking up junk instead of well earned loot after a fight and all that mixed with a user interface that half the time refuses to pick upo an item if slightly outside the small interaction area.
Character progress is often boring with perks giving "10% more damage on torso shots". Player starts out with a small apartment, gets a few smaller and limited apartments later, but no garage to store cars or personalize them. Gear wise you have the choices between having high level stats gear or looking like a colorblind anti-fashion snob. No transmog option available.
The most annoying aspects are the user interface, especially the crafting section, which requires a complete overhaul. The rest of the UI is bad in terms of usability with popup windows full of small unreadable text. No option for changing the HUD color from the default distracting red. Health bar placed in the top left corner forces the palyer to constantly switch sights from the center of the screen, where the attention is required, to the borders and back, which will increase the sense of frustration.

The game is based in quick retellings of classic disney stories, often falling flat for lack of time and development, but the characters and thier original voice actors are so charming and fun to interact with. The combat is fun and flashy, getting more complex as you acquire more abilities, and the story, while a bit shallow, is a fun romp. The final fantasy character design choices are interesting, and something that you won't see elsewhere (soo many chains, zippers and keys lol!). Play this if you like RPGs.
«OST on repeat»
Might feel a bit slow, with only exploration and puzzle solving, lacking combat, but the ambient soundtrack, interesting characters, and well-built world are always by your side to accompany you.
Whether you like the fandom or not, you should still play this game. It's one of the most emotional, exhilarating, funny, and compelling games of the modern age and brings an interesting spin on the turn-based RPG genre. It has one of the best modern videogame soundtracks out, and its length hits a sweet spot, being only around 6 hours for one run.
Coming off of the heels of the previous game, this one has a much more interesting setting and more colorful (and likeable imo) characters. The trials are jaw-dropping and the world building is awesome.
Starts off annoyingly easy but gets more and more interesting and difficult as the story goes on. The characters are wacky and fun, but they're sometimes ridiculously dumb. Also, there are a few leaps in logic when it comes to storytelling, otherwise, each chapter is well thought-out and intriguing.
Has a compelling story while still being wacky in other departments. It's so interesting exploring the city and seeing what unusual situations you'll find yourself in. There's so much to do, so it's unlikely that you'll get bored.
Great dungeons and interesting mechanics, tied together with a charming art style that holds up well to this day. The main problems are that it may get boring going back and forth between the same set pieces, an empty open hub world, and controls that can be extremely stubborn and annoying at times.
Very enjoyable easy point and click adventure. Great artwork and a couple of funny moments. In my opinion it gets a bit repetitive and with would be even better with 20 levels instead of 30.

Listen, the game is not bad by any means. The story is interesting, the visuals are unique and delightful, and the gameplay itself keeps you engaged and entertained. My major setback with this game is how POORLY OPTIMIZED it is on Switch. If you play more than 1 or 2 hours, or even if there are more than 20 enemies on screen at the same time, the game just gives up. The frame rate drops horribly, and the audio glitches and starts to overlap, repeat, and scratch. I have no idea how the ending of the game sounds because during the final battle it glitched and all I could hear was bonks and clanks from the weapons on repeat even during the end credits.
I finished it because I had already invested a lot of time on it, and I didn't want to quit before reaching the ending. But believe me when I say, will never open this game again, unless they release a patch or fix. Delightful game, but nearly unplayable (on Switch at least).

Optimization is shit (with mediocre graphics). This game is unfinished. A lot of bugs and they are critical.
My saves are broken and main story script doesn't work. Don't buy, just wait until the game is fixed (developers promised in February). The game doesn't keep promises that developers given. CDPR's reputation at the bottom now.
In short: disappointment of the year
