This game is VERY good. Most creepy and atmospheric in the part before first boss. Later atmosphere is smaller... I love music&video mix in this game is really creepy how i said in first part of the game because is scary later is too happy (music), level design not good as in first part village TOO but sometimes can kick ass. At the first cave was really atmospheric and creepy (music, forgotten village) and some collect ideas - i like it very much...Later game sometimes boring me because when we hear happy music we hope to see someone to talk, see something new, fell powerfull and free - want to kick some ass's but situation is inverted we fight with noone, we fell not super hero, we not found new skills, items like stick, bird or not have many situations to use both... Just going foward and foward, collecting nothing...
In my opinion the best in this game are: graphics idea mostly in first part of the game, music (in the first part of the game mostly beacuse is most darkly), bird, poor weapons - ONLY stick with this we can't feel safe, once more bird, eyes, part before first boss, ghost, ravens, sounds, ending, last levels, atmosphere...
What i didn't like:
We not meet small enemies.Just two boss's.
Only one NPC who talk with us.
Atmosphere of darkness almost disapheared after first boss.
Not much situations to use bird, stick.
Music should be dark in the most part of the game - Happy when we are really powerfull or happy...like when we meet someone friendly and speak to him or just in moments of happines but not as background of dark levels.
Some part of the game when we just go foward and foward and nothing happening and levels are monotony, and sometimes boring.
In first locations slow walking is good but when we go in to the long montony levels slow walking could really makes man angry. (I prefer run option)
All games have many puzzels. I suggest to put in next game combine of collecting, and fighting puzzles too.
Anyway this is very good game..Advantages are too huge to rate this game to lower.
In my opinion 8/10...but it could be 10/10...
