    Великолепный шедевр! Геймплейно и визуально стала ещё лучше чудесной первой части.
    Музыка, художественное исполнение, анимации, огромный бесшовный мир, боевая система... Просто не верится что на свете есть настолько прекрасное произведение искусства.    Великолепный шедевр! Геймплейно и визуально стала ещё лучше чудесной первой части.

    Stunning visuals, music and gameplay. Like its predecessor, it's a true masterpiece in the genre. Highly recommend.

    One of the best games I have ever played. Moon Studios did everything right with this sequel. It's truly a masterpiece. Do yourself a favor and play this gem.

    Ori and the Will of the Wisps managed to overcome his predecessor Ori and the blind Forest, which has already been a masterpiece without question. Awesome & engaging gameplay. Awesome graphics & atmosphere. Awesome & wonderful soundtrack. Already the first must-play-game in this early decade.

    Wow! Ori and the Will of the Wisp is one of those games you will remember for the rest of your life. It has everything and does it in perfection. Awesome and tight controls with excellent plattforming puzzles, heartbreaking story combined with stunning visuals and an outstanding soundtrack. You fail alot, but you cannot blame the game for it, it’s all your fault:D

    Ori and the Will of the Wisps is amazing! The visuals, music and game mechanics are all incredible. You can tell this game was a complete labor of love by Moon Studios! I really enjoy the melee changes that were made as Ori feels like a right badass now :)

    At $30 price point you are getting an amazingly engaging and innovative game with AAA polish. How could you go wrong with that?

    I didn't finish the game. Thanks to your sandworm section. The garbage underdeveloped gimmick, an obstacle course build around it with high precision requirement, no checkpoints and tight timings.
    No thanks. I've spent literally 3 hours trying to beat this section and I'm done.

    I enjoyed the game so far until that point. Now, ANY enjoyment that I had with the game is completely drowned in bad experience that I'm having now.
    I'm not even gonna bother trying any more and completing the game. And I'm not going to go and buy any of the future installements, knowing how bad of a time I had now.
    It's been literally half an hour since I turned the game off after my third attempt, and I still have my fingers shaking in sheer frustration.

    You took my enjoyment and the good time I've ben having and just sunk it into the toilet. You've lost a customer in me.

    Honestly, I don't know if and how this segment was playtested. But whoever designed it - ruined my experience over an entire game.
    I've played many hard games. Souls games, slashers. I played them on highest difficulty and I like going for platinum and all achievements. I'm not a casual gamer! However even if I was, it wouldn't have mattered. No gamer deserves a segment that makes you uninstall out of frustration and realization that you have better and more enjoyable things in your life than fighting the game controls and going through the same obstacle course a hundred of times over and over, failing each time after over a minute into it.

    No. I'm just done. 0/10. A game that can't be finished because of a single underdeveloped mechanic and a single segment built around it - does not deserve praise from me.
    This was a beautifully made game that decided that it can put an insane difficulty spike near the end, and that it can afford wasting my time and then losing me as a player forever.

    Good job, developers. You **** it up.    … Collapse

    An honest second installment, which is missing only the courage to leave the traditional dogmas of the genre and try something new. [Issue#303]

    It’s a shining example of how to do a sequel. They kept the core of what made the original enjoyable while switching up just about everything they could. There are some elements I feel it did better, some where I feel the original did better with, but on the whole they feel like they’re on equal footing. If you want a game that’s more of an experience than simply something to kill time, if you want something that showcases how artistic games can be, if you want an action platformer with plenty of approaches to combat, I can’t recommend enough that you pick up Ori and the Will of the Wisps. Also Ori and the Blind Forest if you haven’t played it already.

    Its moments of brilliance are worth experiencing, but they shouldn't blind anyone to the shortcomings of a sequel that, underneath that beautiful surface, is as frustratingly flawed as the first. [Issue#346, p.98]
