Tcholeaway Vernal Edge Review

I don't get the hype around this game. OK, it's beautifully crafted, the free roam around the island is great and the combat system is nice... until in the end you're facing 4/5 different types of ennemies in the whole game, the fights are ALL "arena-based", and you clearly have no directions... I read somewhere "old school game with up-to-date quality of life"... I can't agree with that : no possibility to pin things on the map (which is, btw, unreadable), orientation is catastrophic, and in the end, the powers you use and the combos are always the same. Therer are so much more metroidvania or games like this worth the shot and your time than this one. 1st time I'm completely disappointed with OpenCritic aggregation notes...
