Sleeping on it I still really enjoyed Metaphor a lot. I do have a few gripes with how they paced out the game once you hit Altabury. Feels like it speeds up real quick to dump a lot of info with no time in between to enjoy the time there. It's very clear there was meant to be another dungeon.
And then once you hit the final month to prep for the ending to start to see the code of how they designed the optional dungeons. Sucks too since thats where the gameplay really starts to open up and get really fun. Downside was I kinda speed through the last few Followers just to unlock everything.
I may have also spent 10 extra hours to grind out the MC's Arctypes in the final dungeon just to unlock stuff and that trivialized the final boss. I think the final dungeon just dumps so much loot on you that it's begging you to break it. Really question why since the game is already pretty hard.
Overall I think Metaphor was a phenomenal game and is one of Atlus's best works. Really lived up to the name. Strong recommend for new players and Atlus fans. 👍
