A nice game for transformation fans
I'm usually not an ARPG fan, but as someone who likes transformation, the game garnered my interest. And it was worth it. The game has it flaws, with the biggest two for me being that there is a lot of backtracking in the second half of the story, even with the fast travel system. Or rather that there isn't much visual variety compared to the areas beforehand. My second gripe is that you seemingly can't max out your skill tree with a casual playthrough, especially if you like switching between the different animal forms. You do earn passive XP for your human form when you are an animal and vice versa, but you don't earn any for the unequipped animals. Another pet peeve is that the main character is dumb as a brick when it comes to the main story. On the good side, you can play as an animal. There are some grievences as well, depending on personal opinion. Like the animations being a bit stiff, especially when it comes to stuff like breathing fire or spitting poison. And that all of them basically play the same. The water based Crocolisks are just as fast and agile on land like any other creature and the supposedly blind Rockers can move around just as easily as creatures with eyes. The same goes for combat where creatures that predominantly use ranged attacks as NPCs are just as viable in melee when you play as them. There are a few differences, but they are neglectible. Another thing I like is the aesthetic of the game. It has this Anthem vibe, where you are in a medieval orient like society, but they have futuristic technology. The story is also nice for what it is and while it isn't anything special, it kept me motivated to play. There is also some B plot which just gets introduced and then just fizzles out without any proper conclusion. The progression is also well done and while you feel like you're on the backfoot at first, you do become a killing machine when you return to previous areas. All in all I enjoyed my time with the game and recommend it.
