The music in the opening was the only theme that grabbed me. I couldn't really place myself in the world because it wasn't clear when it was set due to the anachronisms. I enjoyed it but I found myself skipping sections because the lyrics and dialogue seemed a little cliche. The story arc was fine but fairly undramatic until the very end. Usually at the end of Act 1, there's a plot miniclimax and I didn't find one. Yannick needs to be tested more as the protagonist for us to care more about him because when he drank from the lake I found myself thinking, "There's nothing about him that would shatter my world if he become a dancing zombie except that I know it should because he's the protagonist."
