  • I've been waiting for this game ever since its first trailer dropped. It seems like a charming and relaxing experience. My aunt lives in New Caledonia. And I would love to discover more of the culture and its vibes through a gaming medium.
  • @fandango8741
    It's certainly not without flaws but it's full of heart and really fun so far! Will we get a ZP on this? Tchia being nautical themed and all!
  • @PotatoJonson
    This game is great and felt polished! The exploration, soul jumping, mini games, music, and heart. Solid performance on PS5 too.
  • @sheryt7394
    This game is amazing! The map is vast for exploration and the navigation system is pretty cool too. The only problem i have with the game is frame drops game could get really choppy
  • This game needs more attention! It’s beautiful and is infused with so much genuine culture
  • @SPM16_
    The story made me cry hands down
  • @haunterdragon4580
    All faults with this game definitely are not because a lack of passion and care. You can tell there was alot of heart put into this.
  • The map didn’t seem too big to me (compare to other games), and I don’t recall any frame rate drops or crashes, but I played on PS5 (not sure if that makes a difference). I agree that the story isn’t super compelling, but I enjoyed it. I liked how chill it was, and I always, always super enjoy flying in games. I just wish you could unlock an infinite posess timer after you’ve beaten the game. The only issue I experienced was where I got stuck in a crack and fell through the map while a crab, and the game seemed to recognize this, as it went to load screen and sent me back with the message “You got lost in the void.” Another time, when Loise gave me the camera and wanted me to take a picture, a nearby wheelbarrow glitched and catapulted me about two miles into the air. XD That one I couldn’t do anything about though, since I was in photo mode and the game doesn’t let you progress until you take a picture of Louise, but it wasn’t anything a simple load didn’t fix.

    I will def play this but will wait for some patches, maybe a 60fps for ps5 but if they can stabilize fps and get rid of crashes I'll jump in
  • Sounds like there's a solid game in there and they just need to bake it a little longer. Excellent review though! Very nicely balanced.
  • @hugodogobob
    I've only been playing it for a little while but the movement controls are very good, you can do flips and shit and slide and stuff like that it's pretty fun. Also you can use palm trees as slingshots which is also pretty awesome
  • @korinogaro
    I don't know if they updated it after day 1 but damn, it was showing upscaling artifacts (like ghosting) like crazy. If this game is not agressively upscaled (no idea why it would need it) than I just wonder what is the reason for all the ghosting.
  • @RemyRaccoon
    “Semi-non violent” is quite funny considering the final cutscene lmao
  • @johnlegend023
    Alot are saying its really good.. Others not so much. But it's free on playstation so might aswell pick it up
