I just don't get it...
oh cool, i get to play a series of huge bosses. oh wait, all i get to do is fight some bosses. all the bosses seem pretty much the same, and fighting them really isnt very fun. and when im not fighting bosses, im riding around on my horse. super engaging gameplay...
the game looks great. it is very artistic and looks fantastic, if you like looking at gray and brown for hours on end, with maybe some grass and a tree thrown in.
no story whatsoever. sure, there is some back story crap thrown in there, but the game would be just as effective without it.
pretty much the only things i cared for was the audacity of the concept (which is the main determining factor for the great reviews everybody is giving it), and watching the colossi move.
the design and soundtrack are excellent, beyond that, i dont care to play it again.
