As a 3 day old Wonderland moth, I just want to share my initial thoughts and impressions of Sky: Children of the Light so far
First off, the bad:
The price inflation of both real and in-game currency items is best described as Y I K E S
That said, the good:
I hate looking at the shops, I get vivid Identity V flashbacks from them all I need is a random lottery wheel that I have to shell out real cash for tickets because the in-game grind to amass enough tickets for it is ridiculous and this is just a crossover event my candles flicker in fear of a Seasonal shop. Speaking of grinds, I haven't had the pleasure of doing candle runs yet, too busy reviving the dead as you do, but I can tell hunting down them will be an... exercise
It's such a pretty game, everything looks some flavor of cute and cozy, flying is a genuine joy, the calls are adorable and don't startle me if I'm concentrating on something to the lessened awareness of my surroundings, the community seems very friendly and respectful, my first Guide aside from Rhythm in the Salon was Nesting and it was such a delight doing their quests now I just hang out near them as I calculate what I want to buy and how to get enough wax for it. The game is also very good at dredging up a person's protective instinct; I took two hits in Wastelands because there was another moth looking kid hesitating on when to cross and I just ran up, guarded their front and back, and diverted attention from them when I could.
Unfortunately for this game, I'm highly introverted and more sightseeing oriented so dropping down into an active communal space for the first time was legitimately as though I had taken the wrong turn in a hallway and walked into a conference room hosting a Batman: Across the Bat-Verse symposium and I was but a poor freshly orphaned black haired blue eyed baby boy with no accompanying guardian or minder in sight. The Batmans took one look at me, stood up, and said "okay, let's go and adopt this kid" to which I responded by running out of the room, adoption papers origami'd into batarangs flying out after me.
So my experience so far has actually been going great!
