AER Memories of Old

I'm a bit saddened to give this game a bad review, but it just wasn't as good as I hoped. The scenery is great, the flight system is decent, and the environmental storytelling is always a plus for me. Other than that, the game is empty. The core of the gameplay is the flight system and the puzzles. I've played better games with similar flight systems, and the puzzles are sparse and simple. Way too simple. If anything, the biggest puzzle is figuring out what to do at the beginning of the game because that requires that you explore the world a bit in order to understand your purpose, which is something that I dislike in games. The purpose of the game journey should be clear from the beginning. The worst for me was the controls. When I tried to play with the keyboard, the game didn't recognize my AZERTY layout, and even when I switched to QWERTY, it somehow still detected my keyboard as AZERTY. I don't even understand how you can mess this up to this point. When I switched to a controller, I managed to get a few hours of almost normal gameplay even though controlling the camera was awkward for me. And then the game started registering some stick drift that made the game unplayable, and I'm not experiencing anything like that in other games. There are just too many problems for me to enjoy the game.

beautiful game
