Surprised this game wasn't more talked about. I really liked the first one and I'm just a few hours into this one and can tell that it's somehow already better on all fronts. Only issue is that it crashes and stalls/freezes sometimes.

Yeah, do that. First one was one of my top 5 games of last year that I played. This one looking to possibly be in the same vein. I like that Ori is more combat oriented now, while he still got his defensive play style as well. Now it's just a matter of when the fukk Hollow Knight Silksong going to dropped. I just narrowly had HK beating out the last Ori game, mainly cuz of the combat and various build styles and the world lore was tighter Also, HK had legit thorough boss fights by the dozens, whereas the first Ori only had boss sequences, not really fights. Now you actually battle them rather than just run away. They've improved the world lore quite a bit in this one, with having many sidequests and other characters as well. Game looks as beautiful as ever and music is somehow even more sublime. So far, I see they still have its lil epic thrill moments too. I think it's possibly the smoothest platformer made or at least in recent history/within the metroidvania mold. Rayman was about as smooth as well with its platforming, but was obviously a more strictly platformer game than this is.

Has to be a PS4 exclusive for xbots to talk about it

This game was fun, kinda tough toward the end, it took me forever to get through the sand level. like 2 or 3 days of trial and error. that damn sandworm is brutal.

This is the game y’all was bragging on? This thread isn’t even 3 pages, just a bunch of review scores. Did any of you even play this?

How's the performance on the Switch? I heard the Xbox version had a lot of issues but i'm tempted to pick this up.
