flawed masterpiece

I'm not against a game being challenging, but the way this game makes itself difficult is sometimes just boring and wastes your time. The first thing I'm going to blame is runbacks — they’re mostly tolerable, with some ridiculous exceptions. Second, enemies dealing bubble damage appear way too early. Yes, Hornet has a faster heal, but it still makes her way too squishy. Third, the arena before the Conductor's Melody, which is required to finish the game, killed me ten times more than the Act 2 final boss — a difficulty curve anomaly that really should be nerfed. That aside, it’s a great game with excellent gameplay, a beautiful world, and great bosses. One other thing, though: Act 3 isn’t really worth it. It’s unnecessarily long to get to, and less fun than Acts 1–2.

Solid Metroidvania

Good atmosphere and art. Enjoyable difficulty level. Big map with interesting layouts and a lot of different paths of progress. However, it's not perfect. Early game (around 5h in 30h game) requires farming money by killing the same enemy over and over just to afford basic purchases like save points and unlock map. A lot of sidequests are boring grind like "kill 25 common enemies". A lot of bosses summon weaker enemies (while it's manageable, I don't think anyone finds these kind of fights fun). Quest journal does not make a marker on the map to remind you where is the NPC who gave it to you. Also, the plot is boring for most part. Most of the game the main quest is simple "I want to reach that place to see what's there." Side stories boil down to "I need that item, bring it to me" or "someone is lost, find him". Big downgrade from interesting stories of Hollow Knight.

Despite the many flaws - 5/5

Many flaws but in the end they are all quite small. As long as you accept that at times you will struggle quite a bit, it'll be fine.
