Need to give this 6 months to see if they add anything else. Right now it feels shallow and kind of boring.
This is really hard to get the hang of, especially with ~20 years of THPS muscle memory but once I did, I really enjoy just skating around.
I’m amazed this is held in as high regard as it is. It’s well shot but the story is just boring and the first two hours are mostly pointless.
Despite the similarities between this and Breath of the Wild, I really enjoy this (where I disliked BotW).
I hit some issues that needed a restart a couple of times and it doesn't have the polish of a "real" PS5 game but I had a ton of fun playing this.
This is a lot of fun and feels like if the Pokémon catching gameplay had actually progressed it the last 20 years. I have some issues with it (no fast travel, a lot of loading screens, mission design seems messy) but overall I enjoyed it.
The story definitely didn't go where I expected it to.
This is a really solid platformer with a lot of variety. The music levels are a particular highlight.
I really enjoyed watching this 10 years on from the finale. My only complaint is the last season felt a little bit rushed.
