Apart from the main quest - there's nothing interesting in this game. The skill system is broken and unballanced. Ray tracing is implemented horribly. No RTX reflections. To see your own reflection - you need to "switch on" a mirror. The game used to work though. Now it just doesn't. Crashes on the start. Been not working for more than a year now. Devs don't care to fix it. Devs want everyone to just forget about this game.
It's a fun game, but just not worth the money. I've beaten it in 5 hours. Princess Maker 4 and 5 have much better stories and offer much more content. And the random elements of the game are very annoying.
All in all a good game. But there's one particular part that had me cursing the developers. The Palace. With its multistep moving platform puzzles. Which are not optional. It felt harder than The Path of Pain in Hollow Knight and as irritating as the worm sequence in Ori 2.
The game is basically 90s style FPS. With 90s style FPS tier horrible locations design. And the map doesn't help it. It's useless. It will have you running laps around the area for hours, looking for things, then trying to remember, where those things need to be used, then trying to find your way back there. And smashing things. You'll smash things a lot. Nothing immersive about it. That fire spell? You won't even use it.
Crafted with love and attention to details. Original. Addictive. Perfect.
Even if you remember every little nook and every dialogue line in it - it is still pleasant to play.
The story is weak. The gameplay is tedious. The control is buggy and clumsy. The challenges are unrewarding. There's nothing in this game to look forward to.
