Am I the only one who thinks Ender Magnolia was just ok?

Felt the same way about Ender Lilies too, Magnolia was a step up in most places, but considering it's a sequel released 4 years later, the bar should be higher

Ok graphics and art, great atmosphere and music, so so movement, decent combat, good boss fights but none too memorable, bland platforming, good level designs, expected upgrades, quite linear if not sequence breaking, great map and quality of life features

A solid 7.5/10 for me, but not quite what it's generally praised to be

As a reference, last years Prince of Persia and Nine Sols I'd give a 9 and 8.5 respectively.
