    It's a cross between Bayonetta, Pokemon, and nier. The controls take forever to get used too. There's a big learning curve.

    The gameplay is unique and fun. Suspenseful and the game gives the player full control over two characters at once.

    Action part is good. Story is typical Japanese anime style. (Meaning it's really bad) Gameplay is pretty repeatative. Character is pretty boring Pace is soso.. Overall I say they hit the most important part right, but all other part is lackluster.. or at least they are just not my type.. Average 90 on metacritic were definitely boosted by Nintendo's fans.. this game is just soso..

    I'm generally a big fan of Platinum's output but this one was a miss for me. Combat-wise, my only real disdain for it is the 30 fps and how annoying Jumping is. It's everything else (side-quests, Detective-work) that dragged the experience down for me, where It felt like a huge chore just to get back to the fun part. I ended up dropping it, personally.

    Something of a hidden gem on the Switch. Its actually a very solid game. But can be a bit grindy at times. Has some god eater and monster hunter style vibes, but is a very sci fi take on it all. Was worth it at full price.
