I Love Skating In Metaphor: ReFantazio
There are a lot of tiny details in Atlus’ new fantasy RPG Metaphor: ReFantazio that make moving through its world a delight. I love how Gallica, my fairy companion, sits on my shoulder as I walk through the streets of its fantasy setting. I enjoy reading all the chatter that pops up from the citizens as I make my way from one side of a city to the other. Metaphor isn’t an open-world game, but its towns are still decently sized and take a minute to get around on foot. Sure, you can fast-travel and miss out on all the ambient dialogue, but if you do that, you’re denying yourself one of the greatest simple pleasures of the game: skating around on your sword. — Kenneth Shepard
