South of Midnight |OT| Don't stop me-weavin'

I am pretty anti woke and I enjoyed the game for what it was. The theming made sense for the setting. Its not the new Snow White. I am not playing a Chinese person in 12th century London. Its completely consistent. The visuals were definitely the high point. The general platforming was also pretty decent. Reminded me of a game from the PS2 era regarding its design. The combat however was terrible. Much worse than Kena which overall made me prefer Kena in the end. Its not just repetitive, it lacks any impact when attacking. Feels like I am hitting air. Could be easily patched.

There's a journal right there on that table by the window, but if you interact with the wall right before it, it goes into a cutscene and you can't collect it anymore; I hate it when games do shit like that.

This is the right approach and contribution to this thread instead of all the bitching about SBI.
Is this a AAA game?
No, it's a AA game with a pricing to reflect that, which unfortunately means it's DoA since I do not think this segment of games exist anymore - people will justify paying more for AAA regarding quality and length, and cheaper than that they would...buy a AAA game on discount.

Not a full priced game and the studio has only made AA games, so I'm guessing this didn't have an AAA budget either.
It's a solid AA game.
loved the game. are there similar games that I can play after this one? maybe also with the option to skip the combat?
Similar as in what? Elex games are action RPGs from Piranha Bytes, they are very AA in terms of budget but have mostly great story and world-building. Elex is however rather difficult, especially at the start.
