Opening cinematics and intro fight scene showed real promise. I was immediately interested in getting to know Briar and Lute, and the gameplay shows potential in the first few fights.

But the camera is unforgivable. It takes a fixed position away from the character but also glides along in an unpredictable pattern, making navigation a mess. It makes it so you can't even run in a straight line because the shifting perspective constantly changes what "forward" means. There is no excuse for a camera this bad.

There's a ton of promise here and I would love to play this game, but 10 minutes with that camera was all I could stomach.
