Game-specific assessment

Pros & Considerations

Exploration

Mira is one of the genre's most vertically ambitious worlds, and Skells eventually transform traversal from hiking into true flight.

Battles

Real-time movement, timing and ability use make execution and positioning part of every encounter

Progression

Equipment, skills or party systems provide persistent build choices between encounters

◇Consider

Story pacing: The open-world structure and affinity requirements can interrupt the main narrative if you focus only on story missions.
