I never quite understood what this game is about.
For me it’s about exploring new realms, and discovering new spirits and doing missions given by said spirits. Collecting items such as clothes and accessories is fun as well. I guess it’s not as intense as other games, but I like that you can do stuff your own pace - there’s no pressure or stress, just lots of beautiful visuals and wonderful soundtrack. Befriending fellow players and doing missions together is a plus as well.
This is the core of all their games. The guy who founded the company wrote his senior thesis on flow in gaming and every game they've made has been about helping you achieve flow while playing. The (very) short version is that the mechanics of the game let you intuitively set your own challenge level, which enables everyone to naturally reach a flow state no matter their skill level.
I am a really big fan of thatgamecompany. I didn't really like Sky though.
