Down to 9.0, and will likely continue to drop.

>The main gripe I have with the game is that the core gameplay is bland and derivative.

I think though, not everyone feels this way.  

Kena Is The PS5's Best PS2 Game

Some people quite love the game, doesn't make them wrong.

Honestly? Stuff like this is why people need to be informed before buying a game. Based on the trailers and the research, this is exactly what I was expecting out of Kena. A rudimentary, simple game with exploration and collect-a-thon elements that had basic combat and puzzle solving all in an absolutely gorgeous world with cute little buddies. The one thing that surprised me in a positive way was the soundtrack, which is honestly the most pleasant surprise of anything all year. I love the soundtrack and I'm glad I got the Digital deluxe edition. 

I think people need to do their research before picking games up, that's how we end up with folks review bombing things because it wasn't what they expected or went in a direction they didn't like (Such as the Last of Us 2 or Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut)

This is a difficult one though, I've been following Kena quite closely in terms of previews etc. It wasn't exactly 100% clear what the limitations of gameplay would be based on the previews and walkthroughs etc.

It turned out rather limiting. I guess you would have had to wait for reviews for that. 

Look its a good game, just not as good as others are making it out to be.
