Great game

Something I really like about this game and Bastion is that they don't overstay their welcome. The designers did well and didn't try to drag the game out to increase playtime. The best parts of this game are all parts, and that can be rare in games. I also really love a story that just throws you in and lets you pick up the pieces along the way. The game doesn't always directly tell you what is going on, some of that is left up to you to figure out. Instead of being told that you love a character or are some certain kind of person, you learn the characters as you go along and grow with them. I think, because of all of this, the pacing is very well done. I also appreciate a hard mode / new game+ after beating the game. I hadn't fully leveled yet and now I have the option to get some more powers and stuff next time. I played this on Linux and didn't have any issues. Wish Supergiant would keep on giving us some Linux ports.

Good but Short

TL;DR It's a great game, and if you see it on sale you should definitely check it out. Story: Mediocre. There isn't much story to begin with, and what's there is ok. Not bad. Just ok. It's enough to get you from point A to B, but I don't really feel connection to any of the characters nor to the world. The game is short, and the developers present the story in a minimalistic fashion. You won't get long paragraphs or cut-scenes explaining things. You'll just get a few sentences here and there. Gameplay: I've never played anything like it. It's an RPG and you can attack in real time, but you can also activate "turn" mode which lets you plan your attacks. You can't use it forever though. It has a bar and once depleted it needs a few seconds to refill. You get lots of weapons, and you can mix and match them in so many ways. Every weapons can either be used as A) main attack B) support or C) passive help. There are 17 weapons in the game so you can have 51 different combinations! You can combine weapons to make them stronger or gain added affects like stunning, or you can add weapons to your "passive" slot to gain bonuses like a shield. Theoretically you could spend a lot of time on experimenting, but to be honest, you'll find a few combinations that are overpowered and you'll just spam those. For negatives, I would say there is no tutorial so to speak. I found the game told me valuable info mid-game that I could have used at the beginning. Also the game is a little short. It really could have been a few hours longer.

Great game, but frustrating at times

Got it because I loved Bastion. If you're like me - lower your expectations, this is no Bastion. It's a great game with nice, innovative mechanics and an engaging story. The events have a lot of depth to them, and the relationship between the two main characters is shown amazingly. And because of the story, I would recommend it. Music is also great, and you get into the mood quite easily. There is one bad feeling that I associate with this game, though - lack of control. You don't get to learn the upgrade menu, you're just thrown at it with no explanation - and it took me the whole playthrough to understand it. There was one cutscene, to carry on with which I had to mash every key on the keyboard, until I gave up and pressed Escape (if I recall correctly). In the training levels you're sometimes given abilities you don't have yet with no explanation of how they work. The fights are dynamic, and one mistake can really hurt after a while - but predicting the exact outcome of your actions isn't at all easy, and the damage estimates sometimes don't work for no clear reason. Don't get me wrong - I really liked the game and recommend buying it, but it has its issues - it's no masterpiece.

possibly my favorite game of all time

granted, I only came to gaming relatively late in my adult life. regardless, I can barely say enough good about it. it does have a few flaws as far as inconsistent tone. you have an elegiac, serious atmosphere, almost a tragic one, and then some silly enemies or music or bit of business throws off the tone. this does not happen often. the flavor text for the character biographies, fails, hard, in that the writer appears to have difficulty with writing prose. so, ironically, the two things which tend to matter to me the most, namely atmosphere and writing, fail, and yet I still love this game. you get the feeling that this world exists (tonal weirdness notwithstanding) and that for the duration of the game. I feel doubly blessed, though, because the game has not had sequels, spin-offs or tie-ins to reduce the novelty of it. your imagination can fill in the gaps. oh, and I forgot to mention the music. best music in any game I have played so far. have I made clear how much I like this game?

Less story, more battles needed

Transitior is like two animals mutilated and stitched crudely back together by a foolish game director who insists that it's working and it's what we do and it's what we've always done and it will have twice the appeal of either animal prior to vulgar vivisection. The story for me is what needs to go, or never to have gone in. The combat shines and the mechanics and art combine beautifully. I just wish there was none of the waffle before, during and after action so I could zone out and enjoyed this game as a series of semi-tactical battles and it's gorgeous setting. Oh. Dear.
