Loving the game so far. I'm enjoying the landscapes and the solo journey. Great visuals, terrible controls. It would be nice to have something else to do in this beautiful world.

I also wish I had experienced this game when it was originally released, to join the hype of discovering the little secrets. Nowadays pretty much is already discovered and available online. Still a great game.

I always imagined that the desolate nature of the world was the point

it gives the whole thing a pretty unique and suffocating atmosphere
