I've had this for a while, I watched the 30 minute intro, played for about 10 minutes and then it sat on my shelf while I was trying and failing to work up some the Geometry Wars leaderboard.
Now, I've played 2 hours.
Pros:
The game is beautiful.
Cons:
Fighting is always contained in the bubble? You'll get used to it. I don't think I will, I should be able to move in a fight the way I want to.
Maps are boring The maps open up later on in the game into huge expansive areas. Two hours in and I'm not seeing much for exploration.
The paintbrush is inconsistent. Sometimes it's forgiving and does understand what I meant when I make a sloppy mess, sometimes it's picky and won't understand when it should. The brush controls have a learning curve so to speak, eventually it'll click and you'll have alot of fun using the celestial brush. I'm doing it right, I'm not new with a Wiimote, it's broken. Why does one straight line not register but another (less straight line, mure squiggly) work fine.
What's the point of making ink a collectable if they're going to give me so much that I'll never run out? Trust me you will run out of ink plenty later on in the game. I have committed hours of my life in to a game, I'm not having fun yet so I doubt I will commit any more time.
The characters are all annoying. you'll love some of the later characters in the game and will grow quite fond of certain characters. Not going to make it to later in the game.
Digging, it sucks. Theres lots of digging to come and it gets more exciting in certain parts. No, digging sucks to me. It's not fun.
Too much time between standard attacks. You eventually get the chance to enhance your combo capabilities and you'll acquire much less frustating weapons than the reflector. Too late, the game made me lose interest.
Music has it's moment, but the general background score in forgetable. I initialy felt the same but it gets better
Too much crap going on in the menu, especially since it seems to have no real effect on what's going on.
Stop explaining what a fruit is, but then glancing japanese stuff and main story points. Hell yeah i'll agree there, lol
Game looks great, but it is not enough to get me to want to continue playing. Trust me the game gets a lot, lot better later on to the point where you won't be able to put it down.
Most over rated game I have played this gen. (Yes more over rated than GTAIV though not more overhyped than that or Halo3; just over rated.)
