A Plague Tale: Innocence

Seeing how the industry has managed escort missions in the last decade in story heavy games, I got into the game thinking it would be more of a side-charachter that would handle it self rather than classic chore of a escort mission.

Pros

• Environments
  It's a good looking game and u feel like you can get into the environment.
  
  

Neutral

• Tank controls
  It technically doesn't have tank controls but it feels tanky in terms of how both the charachter and camera moves and feels sluggish at times.
  
  

Cons

• No colorblind mode
  Usually I don't have a issue with color blindness but I had a really hard time seeing any blood trails and the game had no solution for it.
  
  
• Whole game is a escort mission
  There's good and there's bad escort mission games. This is sadly one of the bad ones from the older era of gaming. It's a chore, annoying and causing you to fail, and part of stealth missions.
  
  
• Invisible walls
  I rarely encounter this as a issue in games but this one caused weird issues with invisible walls.
  
  
• Munk's hair
  It looks like such a joke compared to the bald guys.
  
  
• No map
  This game have no maps, yet it tries to be more open areas/zones.
  
  

Final thoughts

I gave up around chapther 5-6 when the game became too boring and annoying to play because I did not want to do more of an escort mission.
