The areas are open, but progression is linear, which I personally prefer and the game most certainly respects your time. 100% is easily achievable in under 15 hours even if you are spending ample time lamenting the high failure chance of fusing a dragon tail with a butterfly tail .

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
14 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
