Interesting.
Metacritic is sitting at 82 and User reviews are at 9.1.
Let me be clear, this game is NOT a 9.1. I think a fair score for this would be a 70+ rating.
Its completely confusing to be how Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart has scores in the same ballpark as Kena and on user reviews its actually lower (WTF).
I guess it gets a pass on many elements because of Price/and Indie studio, but its difficult to factor in those elements in a review.
The main gripe I have with the game is that the core gameplay is bland and derivative. Everything else is quite good and almost up there with the great PS exclusives. Good score, art, animations, decent enough story, interesting world and characters, lovely ambiance etc.
This is probably a studio that will greatly benefit from a bigger company with some funding. It doesn't feel like they quite hit their mark with Kena, but im sure they would if they had a slightly bigger studio.
