Its a very hard game. the combat i feel is broken because of the auto aim. The enemy AI is smarter than your companion AI. And odd choice like not able to reload, and replenish health.
The platforming is fun, but i fell not really the focus of the game. I like the premise of the story, but the story telling is bad.
The game have this old school charm though. It tough and unforgiving, but still feels you can beat it. I recommend this game to people who wants a challenging game to play.
Fun fact. Less than 10 percent of people who bought the game finish it.

TLDR: Do I recommend it? Only if it interests you and its on a good sale.
I get nostalgic about this game every time i see it, I remember the hype of that trailer. I remember thinking finally another competitor to metroid. finally we have more cyborg robot stuffs. Then I played it and it was alright, but it reminds me of the beginning of the era of the 8th generation of consoles and for that I give it a nod.

The best thing I can say about this game is that it's a poor man's Horizon (Sony) game.
Interesting idea with untapped potential ruined by bloated open world and very shallow combat. But regardless of this, I had fun playing this game, probably because of the effort put in by Team ASOBO. I wish Microsoft would have given this a good budget and chance to make its comeback, but seeing the current MC, I doubt we will see a sequel any time soon.
I would not recommend this game to most unless you're looking for a very, and I do mean very, casual experience. Also, the game has some unexpected difficulty spikes, which can lead to some frustrating moments.
Overall it could have been an 8/10, but as of right now it's barely a "6/10." It's fine. Pick it up on sale and don't expect too much, and then you'll have a good time.

It's a good game with lots of exploration and some interesting story.

This game is a bit rough around the edges I won't lie. There are definitely some things that the creators looked over that they shouldn't have which made the game a bit frustrating at time. However, I don't think this should stop anyone from playing this game. While it's somewhat hard to play and angering at times, the game still has a very interesting turn out and I can say that I enjoyed the game for the most part and was very surprised at what it had in store.

Ugh... this game man. It has such a cool premise and some cool combat and exploration and art. But man is there just too much BS.
I am glad it is over and I am just gunna list my peevs, wont go into positive cause I'm just beat, and I am "recommending" it, but some serious caveats:
1. not being able to switch cores/bots whenever SUCKS - imagine taking minutes to precise platform somewhere hidden and realize "oops! dont have the right bot, lets do it all again!"
2. you have limited storage space for upgrade materials?? WHAT? Yuck.
3. you get the final bot literally at the end of the game.
4. the game is only 9 hours? I didn't even B line, I legit have almost done EVERYTHING (how do other reviews have 15-20 hrs??)
5. when I finish a game and think "finally its done" that is not a good thing
6. THE LAST DUNGEON IS BS - and I can say that cause I beat it. I think I spent 2 hours just in the final dungeon... 5 floors of platforming and arenas? Really did we really need that? The final boss after that is nothing compared to the floors before. The platforming isn't even that bad thanks to some generous checkpoints, but some of those arenas were TORTURE
Anyways... for 4 bucks... I kind of wish I had some of that final dungeon time back, but it is a unique game and I like games that try cool things. Seriously wanted to split my controller in half tho during that final dungeon... can't do that when dualsense is $70... guh anyways I will never replay this game.
... sequel though? Clean everything up? Do ACTUAL story? LOL

The graphics were good. The manoeuvrability was great especially with the pets.
The battle system even with the pets is pretty generic.
The story is really good in my opinion. I enjoyed the start to the finish and how you progressed through the story.
It also works extremely well on SteamDeck.
Seriously, I wish they would make a second one.
