What really sealed the deal for me checking out this game is the promise to not have any microtransactions. That's a trend that has only been getting worse for 20+ years now and I'd gladly pay full price for a game that simply gives me a whole game upon purchase.

No micro transactions, offline single player. A luxury in 2023.

I don't get this take, just in the past 12 months we have seen

-God of War Ragnarok

-Tears of the Kingdom

-Hogwarts Legacy

-Star Wars Jedi Survivor

-Final Fantasy XVI

All entirely or almost entirely singleplayer and all receiving critical acclaim (except for the poor launch of Jedi Survivor's PC port). And the next few months include Starfield and Spider-Man 2, both blockbuster singleplayer games with no microtransactions which stand a good chance of winning game of the year.
