Beautiful and Worth Spending the Time On
I feel like this is as good a wrap on the series as any. Like other reviewers, I don't think I need to repeat that this is more of a visual novel. It's similar in the vein of Life is Strange and other story based games that have some puzzel elements. Syberia 3 felt more balanced, as there were still some serious puzzles that took me a bit to conquer. There were very few in this game that posed a challenge. I don't find myself to be very clever. For instance, a guide needed to explain the fish in Guybrush's inventory was a red herring, which I needed to use to destract a troll with in Secret of Money Island. When I watched the trailer and played the demo, I knew I just needed to play the whole thing. It was just stunning all the way around. The music adds to the environment, and was a wonderful complement. The environments just made me want to visit areas of Europe. I felt the quite town close to the Swiss Alps was perfectly done. It was also nice to see the passage of time as you progressed through the story. Though, it felt like it was perpectually morning or late afternoon to make it a bit more moody. The story was fairly compelling. One piece of the Syberia games I've always been a bit annoyed with has been Kate's constant desire to just keep jumping around. It's addressed and wrapped up, a bit, here. So, that's good. There were plenty of points later in the story line where I was a bit surprised why they went a certain direction. It started feeling a bit soap opera-ey at the end. Then it was over, so it was mostly believable. For me it's a bit difficult suspending disbelief on a few pieces. For instance, no one seems to have a cell phone in 2005 in a major fictional city in Europe? Some of the dialog is pretty odd. Background noise was sometimes oddly chosen too. Felt like a weird mix at times. I had a few performance issues during action scenes with VFX even with RTX 3060. Navigation is a bit wonky with camera angles. Puzzles too. Not as bad as S3 though.
