The original is better
Well I finished it.. As a player who played the original, I didn't feel this game lived upto to the original vision of Sokal had, there was a definite lack of artistic skills with camera angles and emotional telling of the story that only Sokal could of created. Its felt kind of like looking at a copy of the Mona Lisa and thinking we'll its okay buts its no original. The gamification of the find the investigation stories was done badly and I feel it was put the there to make the game feel longer, with no consideration for cinematography of the story so unfortunately this had the side effect of drawing away from the main story as you were busy trying to find the documents and notes. So instead of being a masterpiece of story it becomes a hidden object game to write random articles. The release during a Trump presidency is unfortunate, and made certain parts of the story a bit to real. Still worth a play of course, visually its pretty as long as you don't look to hard at the flora and fauna animations. The story still is fairly faithful to the original, a few minor changes I wouldn't of done but otherwise a competent simulacra. My only hope is if they re-make anymore of Sokal games, they don't gamify them the same way. Refine the graphics, refine the visuals, but pay attention to the camera angles, pacing, emotion and audio otherwise you will ruin his legacy.
