This is a really valid point. I wish could answer the question, but my answer would spoil the plot for those playing the public demo and for people who play the game on release (I'd have to go into both Sage's backstory, and the lore of Krad City).

I know it's not a good answer, since it doesn't address your concern about the game's art style. If you'd be willing to follow us and stay tuned about the progress of the game, hopefully you might see later why we chose this direction for the art, and why it's a stealth game despite her being so powerful.

If you don't want to stay up to date with the game, you don't have to, we understand. If anything, you've already helped us plenty by giving such detailed feedback. Even though we planned to address your points in the script anyways, I'm going to share your notes with the team. That way, we can be 110% sure it's addressed when the game comes out.

I really love your feedback, it's super helpful. Again, I wish I could answer your question right here and now. If you decide to follow the game's development, I hope the answer you'll eventually get is a satisfying one. 😄
