Oh and not to mention the complete exclusion of the coolest part of the game. The NPC interaction. They act, and react actively to what you do. Typically the Selkies try to chase me out of their village with a vengeance. This probably relates to an incident where a few "accidentally" fell off while I happened to be in the area. Really nobodies fault but their own for standing so close to ledges. Still, they hunt me. While you can't talk to them, the level of interaction is a notch above your typical Zelda, or FF game I would say.
