Truth be told, I never really got invested in this level like many people seem to. That's not to say it's bad; I do have it listed as an 8/10 after all, but I still feel like I tend to enjoy it a bit less then the average player. This largely stems from the fact that, while the visuals are absolutely gorgeous, I still don't think there was necessarily that wow factor needed for me to give a perfect score. The art, while stunning, doesn't really feel unique to the level if you ask me. Every element feels like it could be in another level I had played some time years ago, meaning it didn't really feel like this level was doing anything extraordinary. That's really my biggest issue.

All that said, I don't want to try to give the impression that I don't like this level. Despite feeling a little derivative, the art is still really solid, the gameplay is decent for a 3* (especially in the bottom route) and the overall narrative/atmosphere is definitely something special. I really love when levels tackle the concept of death in a more uplifting tone, because it adds a sense of completeness, depicting the end of the longest journey that each person faces: life as a whole. I really do wish I could get more immersed in this world because there is definitely a lot to love about this level that just doesn't click with me as an individual. Still, I have a lot of respect for the level, and can still appreciate the story it wants to tell.
