Unplayable for me

Was excited to finally try this one out only to be hit with horrible motion sickness/headaches. Spent a good bit of time fiddling with settings to try and reduce it without much luck. The text in the in-world notes is nearly illegible. With reviews mentioning how much backtracking is involved later, forcing myself to fight through the motion sickness and tiny text sounds like a nightmare and I'm going to have to drop it. Very sad because I want to play more Myst-likes.

Ambitious game held back by jank

Brilliant world and concept. All my intrigue goes out the window when I'm getting frustrated by movement and sluggishness. Run speed is molasses slow, .ini edits and control exploits got patched out. The patch notes say "sorry speedrunners" but all I felt was "F you, average player". Performance has classic Unreal Engine awful frametimes. If you lock the framerate with external tools, it tends to crash. You get stuck on geometry all over the place because some things aren't properly clipped. Despite having enough RAM to fit the entire game files, load times are insane even off an SSD. Slow and frequent loads are compounded by a very nice animation that loses its whimsy very quickly. The transporter devices have clunky mouse controls and don't let you buffer inputs, so every time you have to use these devices (that were designed to be in your way dozens and dozens of times), you stumble over a button not responding until the exact right frame. If you clicked too early, you might need to resposition and try again. There's a "puzzle" near the end that would be pleasant if all the controls were at your fingertips, but instead it sends you running across several areas, dealing with sloppy controls and geometry, to experiment blind, only to have to retrace steps and do it again. A puzzle where the logic would take you minutes, gets stretched into over an hour of tedium, giving you time to ponder what kind of sadist would greenlight the design. On top of all that, you can't remap the controls, which at best is annoying if you have the habit of hitting space in first-person games, and at worst is an accessibility fail. Beautiful game, very creative concept, wore out its welcome quickly. Myst fans are going to try this regardless of any review. Many technical faults could easily be overlooked if there wasn't so many player-hostile design choices. Can't recommend.

A Game you gonna miss

I never played a puzzle game before but this cought my attention instantly. The game starts off slowly. Exploring makes so much fun that you will find hints easily. After i knew the layout of the first world, it was easy to navigate through something you will find after some time into the game. ;) The puzzles can sometimes seem hard at first but are usually solved very quick. There was only one world (i won't count that other one ;) ) which doesn't quite have the variation in puzzles i would have liked (got too easy). I have to say something bad about the technical side of the game though. It just keeps crashing. The points where it crashes are random. It was quite annoying but i still was able to complete the game without any bigger issues. Autosave is deffinitely needed. ^^ To end this: I loved playing it. Obduction is a game you gonna enjoy for sure. I just wished it had a bit more content (but it's only 30€, so that's fine).

Beyond anything I could have hoped for

I love adventure games, but never really enjoyed the modern "your choices matter" story-based adventure games, or the puzzle games masquerading as adventure games. Obduction isn't like that. It's almost pure adventure. You're continuously finding new stuff and unlocking new areas, and the game just keeps growing and growing the more you play it. It's an absolute delight that feels like it will never end. If you haven't played any Myst games but you like adventure games, you're in for a unique and amazing experience like nothing you've ever felt before. If you have played the Myst games, I can assure you that Obduction is a worthy spiritual successor. Even though I adore Uru and I see it through my nostalgia goggles as one of the best games of all time, I feel Obduction has surpassed it.

Brilliant

I've been in love with the Myst games since I was a kid and I was so excited for this. It did not disappoint me. It retained the feeling of complete unknown-ness and really challenged me, but not to the point where I was crying with frustration. Unfortunately my measley laptop really didn't cope well with running the game, but having played some of it on my dad's powerful PC I can say it is an extremely beautiful game. I really hope there will be a sequel because I hadn't had enough when I finished!
