Ori and the Will of the Wisps – Review in Progress

Ori and the Will of the Wisps is a delight.  The controls are tight, the environments are beautiful, and there’s no shortage of places to explore. The pre-launch of the game has been a bit rocky, with Microsoft sending details of a day one patch and recommending that the game be played on the Xbox One X or Windows 10, but given that it’s a first-party game, I have little doubt that the small slowdown issues and title screen wait…
