Graphics are absolutely mind blowing
Voice acting and soundtrack is fantastic
Side missions are almost as satisfying as main missions
SO many puzzles, caves, and mysteries to discover
Incredible worldbuilding
A wealth of things to do beyond the story

JeuxActu.com
The combat system is of unparalleled depth and intensity in an open world. The world of Pywel is stunningly beautiful. There is also a striking sense of vertigo (this verticality). It is the most organic (and radical) exploration. Detailed interactions with the environment and NPCs. It NEVER holds the player's hand. It takes between 120 and 140 hours to finish the main quest. For 100%, expect between 400 and 500 hours of gameplay. Endless content. The
but the storytelling is too disjointed. The gameplay is still rough. Sometimes controls are too complex for no reason. Very frustrating difficulty spikes (Kearush and Ludvig need to be nerfed). A game that will discourage the general public.

Stunning visuals and attention to detail
Pywel is brimming with activities and rewards organic exploration
Tons of other systems to discover
Responsive combat that's addictive and backed by some strong boss fights

Responsive combat that's addictive and backed by some strong boss fights
Above-average story that's imminently forgettable with bland characterization, especially for Kliff
Progression feels knee-capped by the demand for Abyss Artifacts early on
Annoying inventory management and no storage chest at launch to help ease the burden
Various odd design decisions that bog down exploration, combat and side content

A vast, beautiful world to explore
Combat has a lot of depth and is satisfying against smaller enemies
A truly absurd amount of things to do
Combat has a lot of depth and is satisfying against smaller enemies
A truly absurd amount of things to do
The characters are archetypes you've seen before
The story is poorly told
One of the worst inventory systems I have ever seen in a video game
An artificial world that exists to bend to you
Tutorialization is poor
Awful boss fights
Kliff and company don't know what basic things are until you pick them up or identify them
Routinely does the worst thing a video game can do: waste your time

Pywel?s overwhelmingly gorgeous graphics will make your eyes bleed (complimentary)
Accents and delivery give this world an authentic sense of place
In-engine cutscenes are very well animated
PC performance is surprisingly robust and serves the game tremendously well

Constantly grinding for viable healing items murders any excitement for combat
Controls are an infrequently unresponsive mess
Unintuitive interfaces and mission structures
Long loads, unskippable cutscenes, and a general unhurriedness hamper pacing
