Exploration is top notch. I don’t see how this was labeled a 30 hour game. I must be 15 hours in and I’m pretty sure I’ve barely scratched the surface.
There are some really cool touches they put on this game. You will wander into some villages that seem peaceful enough until you realize the Mongels (bad guys) have taken over the village and have people held hostage in their homes. Take the village back and it will return to normal society.
Also the directional guide in this game is really clever. No more markers on a mini-map, in this game you literally follow the direction the wind blows to your destination, it’s really cool.
