What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
There are actually quite a bunch of very distinct areas in the game, with enough complexity so that exploration always stays interesting and just enough Beacons so that it remains dangerous but rewarding to explore.
Nevertheless, the narrative became my favourite part, as it managed to entertain me from start to finish; do not be afraid, though, as even if it throws a lot of quips at you, it also lets you play in peace for a bit, so it does not overstay its welcome.
The Last Hero of Nostalgaia constantly fiddles with its visual presentation, mixing both two and three-dimensional environments that are portrayed by modern, charming visuals as well as by intentionally dated 8-bit ones; even enemies abide by such changes.
The fact it has Co-Op is great, and there's still messages flying around for extra guidance for anyone playing the game fresh.
Audio wise there's some banger tracks in here and the sound design is fine overall.
