It’s a wonderful game on the surface, especially for the first few hours, but then it becomes bogged down in mindless, insane grind with far too much needless travel, over complicated crafting, and a really rough UI. You can technically play this with a controller but you won’t want to. I don’t think I’ve ever had to check a wiki more to understand the 5 level deep ingredient mix on something that is so deeply pointless. It’s gorgeous, with great writing and theme, but it’s just far too over engineered to be fun unless you really like just wasting time.
