Just saying, for $1.49 more you can get the North American version on Amazon with Prime and access to the DLC.

My 9 year old loves it and has almost beaten it.

No reason to buy a German version from ebay resellers when the NA version will be available for this price (or lower) during Black Friday and throughout the holiday season.

My 8-year old is about halfway through and is doing fine, and I also beat it without much difficulty. It was a good game, glad I played it.

Yes, the combat is "different", but I thought it was alright. I'd recommend watching videos on YouTube of people playing the game to see if it's something you'd like.

I personally couldn't get into the spinning of circles during combat and gave up. Perhaps I just find it an odd way to battle but never finished.

This is my kids favorite Switch game of the ~20 or so we own. The criticisms are coming from people with specific expectations imho.

Yep, people expect it to be as good as the Thousand Year Door on GameCube.

Yeah that's why it kind of put me off too. I bought it and It's nowhere near as good.

I think perhaps you are referencing this version on Amazon for $34.99, which is in English, but is the UK release (which may suffer from the same DLC restrictions as the German one): https://smile.amazon.com/Paper-Ma...B08MHGTHC2

It says specifically in the Q&A:
Question:
Is this a US copy?
Answer:
The copy I received was the UK version.
By Vincent on June 16, 2021

The actual US release is a bit more expensive at $41.95 here: https://smile.amazon.com/Paper-Ma...B088MYGMPJ

When I mention the difficulty I actually mean that reviewers state that its too easy. And yea, Ive seen the combat. I personally just would have liked a little bit more depth to it.

I love how Nintendo games are still so expensive after being out for 1/2 years
