unnplayable controls

it really is a 4 star game for the graphical art style and the very good musical score but the controls.. god. Ive had this game in my library for well over a yr now as im a huge fan of the series but heard that it was crap to play. Finally broke it out thinking perhaps the reviews were a bit over done so soon after release and the subsequent hype and disappointment. They were right. I cant even get thru the opening tutorial area as my char cant get out of rooms, boinks into walls and the camera is pointing all over the place except where I want to look. Mini games are a huge chore because of wonky targeting and overly complicated camera angles. I have spent more time on working with the interface than playing the game and whatever excitment gained by playing the intro cinematics and music is long gone. what is left is a huge feeling of disappointment, irritation and absolute confusion on why they ruined their own game by instituting such a complicated, perverse camera and control system. uninstalling. thank the stars i got it on super duper deep sale.

A good game, but with slopy controls

It is quite a nice adventure, without shooting and excess violence. Resembles first 2 games, but style is completely new as it is not 2d adventure. 3d engine shift makes its problems in controlling an viewing character but mostly it serves its purpose. I would give it 3 stars but those tiny Yukols are really sweet and their ways are interesting.

I am rather enjoying this game.

When my father was alive, we got to know each other, by playing adventure and puzzle games. When it came to Syberia, I was in awe, being an artist, at the music and artwork used in this game. And it may be because of this fact, that I can enjoy some games, more than other people do. Like most adventure games, the puzzles are solved searching for random things, that will help you to solve an objective, to move on in the game. And because of the scenery, I don't mind wandering around aimlessly sometimes LOL. I was lucky to have purchased it, when it was a good price, and I am about 4 hours in now, I know it says almost 20, but I have a habit of wandering away from computer, and then getting sidetracked for a lot of hours, I honestly don't even know if I am 4 hours in lol. I just know I have just got back up to the clinic. While it is not quite as good as the other two, it still is an amazing game, and if I am not passed out , or staring off into space, I do enjoy playing it. Regardless of the negative star ratings. I will agree about the save points, and also the slowness, but I moved from an external drive, to an internal and it was faster, with the little lag I have today, I may put on my SSD drive, and it doesn't take all that long for it to update, and since the saves are in the cloud, I don't have to worry about losing info. Bottom line, I say buy it, and if you believe there is truth to the negative reviews, then put on wishlist and buy when it is on sale, that way you can judge for yourself. Maybe you will find, that the reviews you see here, are but a small amount, of the people that have actually played, and that most of the ones, that really enjoyed the game, just don't bother to comment :-)

Great game!

Really a great game. I love this as I love the first two chapters. No UI problem with my Asus Rog Ally.

Not perfect but I loved it!

I played this game first time in 2019 and I didn't experience any bugs, crashes, anything!!! I love the graphics, I think it is beautiful, the bad lip sync did not bother me at all! The music, the locations , the atmosphere is breathtaking. I used controller to move and mouse to solve some puzzles and it was pretty convenient! SPOILER!! There was only one disappointing thing in the game: the ending Actually there is no ending. After a cutscene the game dropps you back to the menu. No 'The end', nothing! So it's a huge cliffhanger, maybe for a fourth episode, but it was disappointing!
