I think it's a good game, but
a few things bother me: 1) Some things are scripted. I understand, that this is for story reasons, but to me it does make the game feel more repetitive than necessary. (Which it might not, if a game were longer.) 2) Having to choose a card to gain and loose: I get the intention behind that, but it's annoying to have been able to build a varied deck to successfully converse with a variety of people only to be prompted to loose it. I usually try to mitigate it by "replacing" one of my cards with an identical one, but sometimes I had the opportunity to add an "action" (like "redraw") to cards (or I managed to get it as a choice before) and replacing it with a "blank" card with the same symbols isn't the same and will probably impede following conversations negatively, e. g. because now I might have my hand clogged up with cards I can't match up and I can't redraw anymore. Which is especially bad in combination with 3) Yes, I can choose not to talk to people, but not talking to people means no stories and no goods to bring home to the store, which means there is no point in playing to begin with. 3) Fatigue: I understand that it's probably for balancing, but this combined with having to choose a card to add to my deck and a card to loose from my deck, means long trips are doomed to failure and only circling around the same towns near Bartow is boring. I want to explore and find new stories. The latter is very difficult for me with how 2) and 3) work. The little friend you find (also scipted) is nice, but he only helps me once a trip (if at all) and considering travel distances, this doesn't really help me. 4) I managed to bring a lot of stuff to the shop once, but not all of it sold and when I returned with the next load, this non-sold stuff had just vanished. No explanation about what happened to it. I like this game. The story, art, characters, I like them. The music even manages to give the towns I visit a little personality. I'd just like a little more freedom.
