A Great Backstory

After about 3 hours I have not finished, but my curiosity has been piqued and my attention has been gripped. This is a narrative adventure. The purpose is only to deliver to you a story, that you piece together. A well-woven story was created. The backdrop of your surroundings is beautiful, in an artistic way rather than a super-realistic way. The lighting and shadows are well done, and performance was for me where it should be. It ran at a solid 60fps with everything turned up. Would I have appreciated some actual puzzles? Sure, I would, and it being an adventure game I went into it expecting it. But it's in reality a narrative adventure, a story telling tool, and at that it does a good job. If this is your thing I recommend it, as I am enjoying the story and eager to finish in order to find out all that happened.

So slow...

Game has stunning visuals and an interesting setting. However, you are on rails the entire time and forced to watch the same jump or climb animations for the n-th time. During conversations you cannot move but have to stare at whatever. It takes ages. The two hours I played now should have taken 20 minutes. It's not a game that respects your time.

Beautiful but buggy

Couldn't play after a few minutes. My camera always skipped front view, i.e. when I look to the left and then right, the camera will skip view to the front of me and quickly move to the furthest right. And so in every direction. I tried lowering quality, changing other settings, taking away from the overall quality just to see any improvement, but with no luck. My laptop's config is fine as I played games of similar quality and had no issue. I see in other reviews I'm not the only one having problems. Hope they fix it soon as I'm willing to play this kind of game (more like the interactive movie). :)

immersive game environment

this game really pulled me in, the voice acting is superb, the game environment is immersive, and the story is great, only let down is that I think the ending could have been better.

Waaaaay too heavy on the head bob

The head bob in this game is terrible. I'm sure the story and so forth is great, but I could only play the first 15 mins. I mean, it doesn't even feel like head bob. It's more of a... head tilt? Does that make any sense? There seems to be an option to turn it off, but the option itself does nothing at all.
