I played a bit of South of Midnight yesterday, and have to say it's really beautiful, and charming. Hopefully Xbox continues to nurture and grow that team

It's a lot darker than I thought it would be, Lol. But I like that, it just took me by surprise.

But I'm about half way in I think and yeah, it's beautiful, the art-style is gorgeous, the OST is banging, the voice acting is great, the characters and story are well written, it basically excels in everything in the artistic medium and feels like it has real soul behind it. The combat/platforming is fine, it isn't anything special but it's not frustrating me thus far or boring me, it just could be a bit more unique and fluid.

I really love this concept though, I'm already thinking in my head of sequels, or exploring other folklore creatures not necessarily only in southern America, but hey there's still a lot they could do in southern America with Hazel still, I just love the idea of these relatively unknown folklore tales being brought to life and the themes around them.

Also I have the Two-Toed Tom song stuck in my head now
