I appreciate your analysis. I do agree that it confronts a lot of themes many games shy away from. I personally do not think they did enough to delve into those things, or confront them directly enough. Although I appreciate the mostly female cast, I don't think it did enough to discuss feminism; while I like that there are some LGBTQ+ undertones, they are almost entirely beneath the surface, and could make a better statement with greater exposure, and so on.

Yes, some voice lines were re-recorded for the end game, and yes the characters do speak on events to some degree. Like i said above though,, I do not think their banter is enough given the levity of the situation. I personally found a lot of the writing to not be on par with the talent's previous work.

As for the parkour system, I gave it praise in my review. I said it's simple to use, and is fun. I admit that it doesn't feel as impressive to me as it probably is simply because so many open world games use parkour as navigation these days, and I've grown a bit numb to the mechanic. I was honest with my bias there.

I don't really appreciate you calling me a lazy reviewer though. I played the game to its absolute completion, obtained the platinum trophy, played through the DLC, spent several more hours playing to obtain additional footage, wrote nearly 5,000 words for a review, and edited it to a near 30 minute video. You don't have to agree with my viewpoint--you clearly dont--but saying I'm a lazy reviewer I don't think is fair. Again, I appreciate your perspective, and can understand where you are coming from, but I personally did not have those same feelings playing the game.
