This game is amazing. It looks amazing, the gameplay is amazing, the lore and cutscenes are amazing, it's all just really good. The only thing I'd complain about is the lack of any sort of mapping, but I completely understand how that would be detrimental to the exploration aspect of the game. It makes sense to not have one because learning the terrain and exploring to find out if you missed anything is a much better experience over glancing at a map and mindlessly beelining for the checkpoint marker.

The bosses and NPCs are all unique and that honestly blows my mind considering how many of them there are in this game. I love the way the different animals actually act like they're that animal and aren't just human personalities wrapped in an animal shell. The wolves growl and bark, the rats snarl and sniffle, the foxes yip and chitter, the monkeys yap and spin, the felines roar and display their impressive agility despite their enormous sizes, the boars try to flip enemies with their snouts, the frogs use their legs and tongues to their advantage, the cobras hiss and spit, etc. It really feels like you're interacting with the animal and all of its unique characteristics and traits and not just, again, a sowrdsman in the body of an animal that has nothing in terms of mechanics or behaviors to show for it. Even the different types of avians and dragons behave like their species and act accordingly. The studio really did do a great job with this game.
