Thought I'd try Oceanhorn for the PS4, and I gotta say I found it pretty underwhelming. I admittedly wasn't expecting much since it was sold to me as dimestore Wind Waker, and though it definitely has the looks and basic mechanics down, I don't think it has any of the charm. I know this started as a mobile game and was obviously going to have more limitations than a big-budget console title, but the generic story and bland characters really put a damper on my experience. I don't know who thought it was a good idea to dump half the plot on the player after one of the most anticlimactic final boss battles I've ever seen, but they should probably go sit in the corner and think about what they've done. Level design also felt very lazy to me. I really, really hated the stamina system. The music was at least nice. Easy platinum. Would have gotten it much earlier if the leveling system hadn't decided to glitch out and rob me of 1000 experience points just before the final battle. I didn't hate the game, but I doubt I'd play it again.
