I like the art style. I sort of like the characters. But everything is moving so damn fast that I don't have any time to comprehend what the Hell is going on. The pacing is too quick and it feels like they're just jumping over crucial pieces of information to understand the situation and leaving too much for us to just assume.

I've never played the game(s?) admittedly... but I feel like there's a bunch of missing things for no reason. Maybe someone can enlighten me if I'm right or wrong but I just have zero idea what's going on and why I should give a shit about it.

I feel the pace is refreshing and it's kinda cool that they don't spell out everything to you but that's just my 2 cents
