Total play time:
17+ hours
My thoughts:
Intro:
Don't listen to the hype. This game is bad. I can't recommend this game, at all.
Graphics:
I enjoyed the pixel art. And the emotional speech bubbles were a nice touch.
Gameplay:
When I wasn't running into bug after bug, if you like GALF I guess it is okay.
Story:
What story? Whatever paper thin garbage they pass off as a story was... garbage.
Outro:
I'm stuck on the final 9 hole course of the game. I guess I've played the whole game wrong because I leveled up my stats uniformly thus unable to beat this game because I can't hit the ball far enough? I don't know. I've tried like 6 times.
This isn't Xenoblade Chronicles 2 bad, though, mostly because it didn't go on for 100+ hours.
Original thoughts 3 hours in:
This game broke me. I can't play this as my "main course" any more.
Game started rough with Australian colloquialisms that made no sense to me and totally took me out of the experience.
As I finished the first 7 holes of Wellworn Grove, I could only think to myself - wow this is boring...
Lurkey Valley started off with more promise, but then it broke me.
The first (only?) 7 hole challenge of LV, if you lose - back to the main menu you go! Bug or feature? Not sure.
On the 4th hole, I tee up and SMACK! the ball goes flying towards the hole. I overshoot the hole and it goes BOUNCE BOUNCE into the area of Hole #1. And low and behold, it goes into hole #1! I get a hole-in-one!!! The game scores appropriately. And I move on to Hole #5.
Wasn't able to replicate, but WTF? Weird bug.
Hole #6 has a fun OOB bug, when if you miss the green and land just south of it by a couple of yards in the rough. you get an OOB fail.
Menu navigation nitpick - has anyone else noticed this?! You hit + to go into the menu, select an item, hit B to go back and it kicks you out to the game... What if i wanted to select another menu item?
This page may get updated if I ever play again, maybe during lunch time at work I'll get some more playtime in...
Rating:
1/5
