    Well constructed levels, great gameplay, and beautiful music. Probably one of my favourite games ever. Emotional storyline with satisfying story arcs. Certainly a masterpiece.

    Great visuals. Fantastic gameplay and lovely music. Graphics are outstanding. Has little story but emotionally resonant. Platformers don't get better than this.

    A masterpiece (although with a nonsensical plot).

    The only thing worth adding to everything that has been said, is that, as many modern platform games, the fact that the player doesn't die is balanced by some very tricky platforming parts. VERY tricky. To be completely fair, the hard parts are always feasible with proper effort, and they're also very creative. If you don't have    A masterpiece (although with a nonsensical plot).

    It's been aeaons since I played something so beautiful, it left me stunned for a long time.I liked the save system, eliminating frustration factor from difficulty. You spend "mana"points to create save points, where you respawn without loading. This makes multiple attempt to deadly parts smooth.

Долго учиться выживать в этом мире не пришлось, к счастью, по пути появляются новые друзья, а сам Ори - это дитя добра, не желающее видеть зла в этом мире.
    Графика и музыка в этой игре просто невероятны, всё очень хорошо детализировано и талантливо преподнесено, после Child of Light - это единственный платформер, который смог меня настолько сильно затянуть и заинтересовать, а ведь я еще не прошел даже половины игры. Геймплей - очень динамичный и близок к хардкорному, но таковым не является, ничего прям-таки уж сверхъестественного я пока не заметил и вряд ли увижу, просто игра полна сюрпризов, к которым со временем привыкаешь. Карта невероятно большая и разнообразная, чем может похвастаться не любая игра, как по мне, так это одна из самых больших карт в платформерах за всю историю. Разработчики проделали невероятную работу и заслужили огромных оваций, слава богу, что все другие игроки это понимают, о чем говорят 95% положительных отзывов! Сюжет у игры хоть и далеко не оригинальный, но приподнесен просто замечательно!
    Минусов в игре я не обнаружил, разве что, парочка маленьких недочотов и багов, как, например, на скриншоте у меня в профиле, когда камень, который является ключом к продвижению вперед не двигался и вынудил начать прохождение сначала. В той эйфории, в которой я нахожусь от игры, я бы с удовольствием поставил свою первую десяточку, но только ради того, чтобы поставить самую большую оценку второй части этого шедевра, приберегу пожалуй баллы =)
    Игра стоит своих денег и даже больше! Ни капельки не пожалел, что купил ее и обязательно закончу в ближайшее время!

    Моя оценка: 98/100, но знайте, что я готов и десятку ставить, для этой игры не жалко!    … Expand

    Metridviana foda ! Tu sente o personagem se tornando mais forte em busca da mãe. A dificuldade em escapar de certos locais prestes a explodir( geralmente depois de vencer um Boss) dá aquele suadeira boa e gostosa de "UFA consegui".

    One very unpleasant minus for me is that when buying "Def edition", I was tied to the original game as well. In other words, passing the game and getting achievements in def edition I will still have in my collection an empty "strip of achievements" of the original game, which is very depressing, since it doesn't meter how I loved this game, a hundred walkthroughs will ruin the impression.    … Expand

The storyline is so damn beautiful, this is the only time a game has made me cry. The platforming complements this game so goddamn well. All the puzzles and unique abilities you get help you navigate this vast world. I would strongly recommend you get this even if platform games aren't your style the story, soundtrack and puzzles may get you hooked and if it doesn't then refund the game, 2 hours is plenty of time to weight up your opinion.
    In conclusion, I have loved this game since it came and decided to get an account purely to tell you that I could not recommend this enough. Moon Studios have worked hard to deliver a stunning game and it deserves all the praise it can get.    … Expand
