I don’t mind the puzzles but find it a bit annoying how the other characters will basically solve them for you. It’s nowhere near as annoying as Horizon Forbidden West where Alloy would endlessly prattle on like a toddler.
There’s an interesting video I just saw that goes over why it might be done like that.
For me the combat is still a bit frustrating, it overwhelms you with enemies and it reminds me a bit of Control in that you can be hit with so much damage in one go that your health can go down stupidly quickly. A lot of the time when I die I’m either a bit confused as to what’s happened or I feel like it was the game’s fault.
I don’t mean it to sound like I’m not enjoying it, I’m absolutely loving the story and characters once again, and the combat has its moments. Just a couple of gripes.
