Good looking, interesting story
Wasn't sure what to expect from Firewatch, I was pleasantly surprised. The dialog really drove the story, It felt like a story podcast combined with a scenic walking simulator. Lots of dialog choices, though I'm sure sure how much of an impact they have on the story.

Excellent & short narrative with flaws
Firewatch offers a wonderful, grounded narrative with beautiful scenery along the way. The protagonist, Henry, and the woman you'll spend the duration of the game communicating with, Deliah, have a very believable chemistry that can dance around the line of romantic and platonic (though this has little impact on the core narrative). Despite being set in a large expanse of wilderness the story is fairly linear and doesn't offer much incentive to explore outside of admiring the visuals. Firewatch runs rather short at around 3.5-4 hours. My only other gripe with the game is the way the story ends which is nearly impossible to discuss in further detail without spoiling it to some degree. I wouldn't go even as far as to say I dislike the ending, just that it fell flat for me personally. Overall if you're looking for a well-written game narrative in a beautiful setting you really can't go wrong with Firewatch.

Time well spent.
The game is quite short (about 5 hours) and the ending may (or not) leave you disappointed, other than that a great, visually pleasing, story driven game about loneliness, dealing with change, acceptance and weight of responsibility and you know.. life :) 4/5 definitely worth it's discounted price.

Calm and quiet, but very short
There is not a lot of action nor dramatically developing story. Ending is just... meh. I've been expected some... I don't know... I've expected answers, good ending. At some point I thought it is all just a protagonist's dream but it is not. The graphics, sound and the forest atmosphere are good. As a HAM I enjoyed the plot based on using the transievers. There is lots of walking for sure. Sadly, no matter what you choose in dialogue options the ending will be still the same. So, should you buy it? Yes, if you want calm and quiet gameplay for 3-4 hours. No, if you like well developed story and looking for some action.
