Pros
Pro Polished art design
The graphics, music and voice acting are all top notch. Considering the amount of money this game made through its Kickstarter, it is no surprise the extent of the polish of the game.
Pro Varied, beautiful world
A variety in locations visited and enemies met, that all are beautifully designed, gives the game a world that feels alive.
Pro Great combat system
Choose between solo and paired combat, where damage dealt is increased and damage taken in shared. Add to that a 'rock, paper, scissors'-type elements system mixed with a great selection of magic abilities, choice passive traits and charge bars that unlock special abilities and you get a deep combat system.
Cons
Con Poor story in second act
The second act of the game has an increasingly incoherent story that explains very little of what is going on. Considering the first act ends with a cliffhanger and many questions to be asked, to see the second half explain almost none of it makes for a frustrating story.
Con Dull story
The story feels as though it falls flat during most of the game.
