Some updated impressions
The later areas do ramp up the difficulty, there are a few sections I have had trouble with. The platforming sections are sadly pretty repetitive now tho. There is quite a nice amount of enemy variety but there are a few reskins with one or two new attacks, and you do kill a lot of each type of enemy, the encounter design keeps it fresh by throwing different combinations at you which is nice. And there is quite a bit of Zelda style padding, and the overworld is a bit bland. And the side quests aren't as well designed or numerous as I would like.
I have run into a few bugs, but thankfully nothing game breaking so far. But all in all I would say that it is my GOTY so far. It's just damn fun to play, and has great art. I hope it sells well enough to see a third game.
