@janman: idk how much you care about the Kingdom Hearts lore, but not too long ago we got to the Union Cross finale and -- BABY XEHANORT! Ahh!! And so many revelations! Two years ago I knew nothing of KH. Then I got tired of seeing people in this community shit on it and decided to play everything KH to make up my own mind; and man.. it's good, but also bad, but also so very good.
Ugh.. and now I can feel the sting of the KH fans. Waiting, forevermore, for something more.
Thankfully, Steam thought I liked games with fluffy people in them, so it pushed this game on me right before release, and I loved it despite some of the tropes.
There's fatphobia and sexism a-plenty, especially from a certain character, and this is where the Soul Cannon mechanic becomes extra handy. Not only will it let you get rid of annoying characters, but the Soul Cannon also basically lets you use those annoying kids to one-hit kill a boss. Brilliant!
That said, there's plenty of charming characters to 'link up with', and some of the evolving stories between your chosen kids are cute and heart-warming. Some of course are said and heart-destroying, but I feel there's a good balance considering the topic.
