Ok, the first hour was fantastic in every way.

But then I got stuck. Not in the sense of not knowing where to go, but literally imprisoned in a small area where it was completely impossible to leave.
That was at a spot where you can comunicate with Adam. I had gotten there a second time and was not able to enter the EMMI area like the first time because of fallen blocks that I blew up the first time around and going back was also impossible because I would have needed the morph-ball. I saved literally in that area so loading the last savepoint was not a solution.

How is that even possible and no one noticed? I had to start all over again and you can't skip the cutscenes as if it were a 15 year old game. What went wrong with the level design here?

The level design is fine if you're stuck it often means you missed a breakable block, your image is not showing up and is just breaking the thread btw. You also can skip cutscenes you press + then press - after it.

Yes, thanks. I found a few breakable blocks eventually. The introduction cutscene can't actually be skipped. At least in first playthrough. Others can though.
