This tries so hard to satisfy and coddle us that it forgets to be exciting. Honestly, you hardly need to touch the keyboard for parts of this! Before, exact precision, coordination, timing and figuring out where to go were vital, and if you couldn't live up to those, you couldn't complete them.

I hope she understands that it's nothing personal, I have to call them as I see them. Who can make this happen? Why, the resident brunette tanned Meg Ryan, Elika. Our lead has to prevent this, of course, and it's by healing the areas, restoring nature(and you can really tell if you're in an area you've taken care of or not) with the use of magic(wait, what? Guys, you're channelling the wrong animated Robin Williams flick!). Buried under the Tree of Life is Ahriman, the god of darkness, and he's being let out. well, it's his nickname, for some reason) with absurd-looking abs stumbles upon a forgotten land in the desert.
