PS5 is saying the game progression, which only focuses on the main story, is at 50% when you hit chapter 2.
This is where I'm sort of throwing in the towel.
The game is bloated like every open world game and it's beyond formulaic. I'll say at least the Kitsune area tried to spice it up slightly with puzzle boxes and ambushes but you're still :
-Buying maps
-Go to location to bathe, cut bamboo, pray to a shrine, hunt a bounty, follow a fox
-Scripted story beats, shimmy through this, stealth kill that, fight a boss that is the same as the last 20 bosses
-Ride horse follow wind
This is absolutely a 20 hour game stretched immensely thin. The combat is good on harder difficulties, but the story is meh and I don't feel gripped enough to see Atsus story to the finish.
