    The artstlye is stunning, the narrative and the story are powerful, and the mechanics are varied and interesting. A little bit annoying from time to time, i have died like 450+ times throughout the 8 hour journey, but it was worth it.

    奥日一直以来的王牌就是它的音乐和美术，简直甩同类游戏几条街，这里只说一代瑕不掩瑜的缺点：
    1.锁区，国区无法直接购买终极版，CDK激活不含中文，离谱
    2.普通版内容缺失过多，如技能、地图等，难度也是锁定的，劝退大量玩家
    3.地图开放性相对较差

    Awalnya main ori karena suka celeste. desain levelnya agak sedikit berbeda, kalau celeste linear, kalau ori lebih semi open world, beberapa kali jadinya muterin tempat yang udah pernah jadi bisa agak repetitif. beberapa ada scene yang harusnya menegangkan dan emang menegangkan, pokoknya spot on deh. Audio dan musik nya bagus banget, art style nya ciri khas ori banget, ceritanya simple.Awalnya main ori karena suka celeste. desain levelnya agak sedikit berbeda, kalau celeste linear, kalau ori lebih semi open world, beberapa kali jadinya muterin tempat yang udah pernah jadi bisa agak repetitif. beberapa ada scene yang harusnya menegangkan dan emang menegangkan, pokoknya spot on deh.

    Insane JNR - one of the best games of its kind for decades. It made me addicted from the first moment. What a story! What feelings! Great progression and controls. Overall one of the rare games I had to play through as fast as possible. It took days and nights ;) I enjoyed it.

    It is a wonderful game. If you like Indie games, you must try it. The music is so soothing and playing the game is an experience in itself. The ending of the story is heartbreaking but it sets up a great story for the next game.

    Artstyle is very distinct and still holds up to this day despite being a 2015 game. combat is a bit lackluster (lack of bosses variety), however the platforming is top notch, the game even have this escape sequence platforming that is very awesome and mindblowing. movement also very fluid (some people say a bit too fluid, but i disagree, this gave the character more agile feels)

    The gameplay is no less wonderful, a huge number of mechanics that gradually open up on the passage, so even at the very end of the game will entertain you with the new, and you can go through some locations have a completely new way :)

    Played calmly and on the keyboard, the game is actually not as difficult as it is described by some, certainly not more difficult than many of some platformers, I think almost the easiest in its genre, just a little patience and everything will turn out. Difficulties are only in some moments on the bosses, but no more than that, and the great pleasure when after 10 attempts all come out perfectly.

    For all fans of platformers absolutely recommended!    … Expand

Gameplay is awful too. You will die 100 or more times just to pass through some plot platforming element. You won't be rewarded for your suffering.

    I don't like Ori and the blind forest, despite what most people say about the game. The graphics are weird, the gameplay is a little dull. The story is something more like a Studio Ghibli type of thing, which while engaging in a movie i can't say the same for a game (well, at least THIS game). What a shame

A medida que avanzas, el combate y el desplazamiento se vuelven más interesantes y difíciles de dominar. La historia es muy buena pero quizás demasiado ñoña.

    Ori and the Blind Forest es una historia hecha videojuego. Esto puede sonar a que está mal adaptado a este medio. Nada más lejos de la realidad. Ori and the Blind Forest es un videojuego increíble. Aunque sí que se nota algún punto flojo.

    Jugablemente, es genial. Tiene unos controles súper fluidos que a manos de expertos, son una delicia de ver solamente. Esto si lo combinamos con la cantidad ingente de habilidades que se consiguen tanto obligatoriamente como las que se obtienen en el árbol de habilidades, crea un set de movimientos muy amplio en el que puedes hacer auténticas virguerías.

    Con el mapa tengo sentimientos encontrados. Por una parte, me ha gustado, tiene entornos variados, un diseño bastante parecido al de un metroidvania (por su "no linealidad"), muchas secciones plataformeras que aprovechan a la perfección el control tan bueno que tenemos sobre Ori, pero por otra parte, me ha parecido muy lineal para ser un metroidvania. Va llevándote de la mano indicándote dónde está todo y a dónde tienes que ir. Pero en general, es un muy buen mapa.

    Audiovisualmente, es hermoso. Pocos juegos he visto con un soundtrack que pueden hacerte llorar o animarte al mismo tiempo. Tiene un montón de temas súper épicos que llegan al corazón y quiero dar mi enhorabuena a la orquesta dedicada al OST del juego. Y visualmente es una delicia. Es un juego precioso, con un montón de colores, con diseños de personajes y lugares espectaculares... Podría pasarme horas diciendo lo bueno que es en este aspecto.

    Y la historia es muy buena. Lo que menciono al principio de la reseña de "una historia hecha videojuego" se nota. Se centra mucho en temas como el amor padre-hijo, el sacrificio y la lealtad, creando una trama con momentos muy trágicos que pueden hacer llorar.

    En conclusión, Ori and the Blind Forest es un juegazo que por su duración (unas 7,5 horas en mi caso) se te puede hacer mi caro, pero créeme que merece completamente la pena. Recomendadísimo.    … Expand

    Playing Ori and the Blind Forest is akin to having a piano lesson — it is fun only when you press exactly the right keys. Get off the mark for just a split second, and the entrancing melody is gone, the tempo is ruined, and all you can hear is the sound of your fingers frantically tapping the keys.

    At first, Ori looks like a very easy game. But that’s a deception: the further you go into the forest, the louder cracking of your thumbs will become. Our condolences go to anyone who will try to beat Ori on keyboard+mouse combo instead of gamepad. [May 2015, p.71]

    If you’d asked me back in the Super Nintendo days what video games would look like in the future, I imagine that I might have pictured something just like [Ori]. That is to say, something with the visual resonance of a masterfully animated film.
