Much a do about nothing
Since I already praised The Brotherhood for their work on Beautiful Desolation, I was interested to see how they started and that is how I got to Cayne. And I must say that I hated the whole experience, I know that it can be heart breaking to a game developer to see and read something like this, but it's for the best. Story: You are pregnant woman named Hadley and you are thrust into a unknown facility and are trying to save your life and of the unborn baby. I found it irritating that her "character" had a defense mechanism by telling stupid jokes. Voice acting was alright, the screams are great. Had zero chemistry and due to no charisma of her own and very bizzare dialogue I didn't enjoy the protagonist at all. There aren't a lot of characters here, and basically most of the story is thrust upon you by reading PDF notepads, and it doesn't work especially that you can see that they are based in a advanced future, there could have been audio logs but I gotta say that they also couldn't save the game from being bad. Gameplay isn't fun here. There I said it. Basically you also go around collecting items and are trying to solve puzzles. Like with Beautiful Desolation which had several puzzles which could be sorted out, and then some that had minor hick ups with the signs and how to solve them, here you are left like a naked babe into the woods and they don't make any sense. You will be clicking everything and anything on every possible to get a solution. That is just bad game design. Now to give them some credit here, some designs of the interiors are interesting and it really shows that when they are willing, they can get that part of job done very well. I wouldn't recommend this game to somebody to check The Brotherhoods work, definitely start with Beautiful Desolation but Cayne can be skipped it will save you a lot of time. Now I feel trepidation to play Stasis at one point.
