I really wanted to be immersed into the world of Ni No Kuni again, but oh boy is that impossible with this game. Everything is on auto pilot, which cannot be turned off. Combat (besides also being on auto pilot) is super easy. There’s no challenge in it. Next to that, the game has a whole bunch of mechanics to “reward” you for stuff that makes little sense. Every new thing you do (on auto pilot) every new thing you find (also on auto pilot) and every monster you defeat (you’ve guessed it, on auto pilot!) triggers some kind of notification in one of your menus or sub menu’s. Here’s what you’ll be doing in this game: while everything is running on autopilot in the background, you are scrolling through 2 or 3 menus and sub menus just to tick off those notification badges. That’s the game. You’re swiping and tapping on list items in a tiny dropdown menu which will likely trigger some kind of other reward which has barely any significant value in terms of game play. Huge let-down. 1/10 That 1 is for the style, it’s gorgeous and I want to like it, but it’s really bad.
