Great graphics. Everything else sucks
Story 1 star - Disjointed, confusing and boring. The ending is about as clear as mud. I've played the game all the way through 3 times to make sure I didn't miss anything in the story. It's still boring, disjointed, confusing and has an ending that made me say "Huh?!! What the hell was that? What was it supposed to mean? Geez total waste of my time." Gameplay 2 stars - Pacing is way too slow. Mechanics to interact with the game environment are simple enough. Standard first-person walking sim controls. Audio 1 stars - The voice actors chosen for the English version are not good. Carter's voice and acting is B-grade movie material at best. The other voice which is supposed to be creepy or something sounds like an old man who's trying to be dramatic but is just boring. Ambient audio is not creepy. It's just generic. Mood/Atmosphere 1 star - The vibe is definitely NOT horror at all. It's not scary. It's not creepy. It's certainly not horrifying. At best it's feels like a poor man's Cyberpunk 2077. Ending 0 stars - I don't have any idea what the ending is supposed to mean. I've watched it three times. Also, I've watched the alternate endings on YouTube. Still not clear at all. Probably I'm the one who's slow, and the endings make perfect sense to everyone else. But in my opinion, they all suck and make no sense. Graphics 4 stars - This is the only thing done well. The environments, textures, lighting, etc. are excellent. However, the people (i.e., Carter, the villain, NPCs) are absolutely terrible. I mean really bad.
