Folklore is absolutely amazing. I was not disappointed in the least. The plot was qutie interesting, the characters memorable, and the game ran very smooth. In fact, I was always more interested in Keats, but after playing through some of Ellen's stuff, her mechanics were varied just enough to make it awesome. The visuals are excellent, not realistic excellent, but excellent because of the art direction and design. Also, I loved the music, as well as the way in which the story was told (semi comic book style). The game does have some minor problems (like slight frame rate lag occasionally and a fair amount of loading times (install to the harddrive will lower these times)) but otherwise, I think that honestly this game was underreviewed by most people. However, I recognize that the game is mainly attractive depending on your perspective and penchant, so their reviews are quite valid, but I wouldn't agree with them mostly.
I honestly bought it thinking it has awesome art design, and I came away presently surprised by the story and the entire work as a whole. It is a really great game, and the story, though slightly confusing at times or can be drawn out, is still excellent and the game seems was definitely worth buying it.
