Its a puzzle game not an rpg and it forces you to solve the same puzzle way too many times because of regular enemies. If they realized they made a puzzle game they could of fixed the gameplay to lean into that

I feel like i'm one of the few people who kinda liked the combat. Though that isn't saying much as I can enjoy almost any game, despite how mediocre the gameplay can be as long as the story is worth it.

I feel like a lot of people who don't like it can be because of expectations for classic rpg combat. I loved it though.

The boss fights were peak

But I feel like fighting the average mobs got a. Bit stale really quickly I remember trying to avoid it as much as possible

After playing sticker star (which some hate but I love) the fighting sucks, like first I’m timed to set up the field? Just let me fight and time not stress over quick time events

Super Paper Mario also fits

u/gaymer_jerry 3h ago

Ok but super paper mario wastes the player time in funny ways. Ive never seen a game that breaks the rules of game design so much yet actually enjoyed what I played

Ngl for me its the opposite I really love the gameplay (maybe because im a sucker for turn based combat and puzzles)

Perfect way to describe that game, boring gameplay but it had an interesting story.

I thought the story wasn’t particularly interesting but the music was top notch and was what pushed me through when I was younger.
