What players say

Players find the combat solid but the story lacking, calling it the weakest entry in the series they have played. They praise the music and exploration but criticize the unresolved character arcs, an abrupt ending, and frustrating map completion requirements. Opinions split on whether the game is a worthwhile play or a disappointment compared to titles like Origin and Oath.
