    Bom, eu comprei esse jogo no lançamento com grandes expectivas, porém decepcionei muito com a progressão do jogo.
    Gráficos e a trilha sonora são excelentes, personagens tem um carisma incrível, jogabilidade boa, mas o que decepciona nesse jogo é o sistema de progressão. Você fica perdido com facilidade, mesmo utilizando o mapa para auxiliar, é tudo muito confuso.

    Tinha tudo para ser um Zelda Killer, mas faltou atenção no ritmo do jogo.    … Expand

    If you’re wondering why it took so long for this review to show up on Destructoid, I’ll tell you: I dreaded playing Baldo. Every night over the past three weeks, I looked down at my Xbox controller with unease, worried the next two to three hours of my life would be agonizing. And every night, that intuition turned out to be correct.

    Baldo: The Guardian Owls is an audacious release that struggles to find its own identity. Although the Studio Ghibli-esque visuals are stunning, the issues with the gameplay make this a laborious plod through a gorgeous world. With a map that lacks clarity, you will spend hours of your time haphazardly wandering the terrain in search of objectives. Fans of traditional Zeldas will enjoy the interconnected, puzzle-filled dungeons but will be left annoyed and irritated by the inconsistent combat and odd design choices.

    It’s not hard to imagine a game that fulfils the promise of a Legend of Zelda game set in a Studio Ghibli world, because it occasionally shines through Baldo: The Guardian Owls. But Naps Team needed an experienced hand to get more than ‘shines through’. They’ve locked so much good stuff behind terrible design decisions and a steep difficulty that your patience will run out well before the fifty hours it takes to complete Baldo, which is a crime against some fantastic art and music.
