Hurt me more!
This game is brutal, depressing, and not exactly easy on the eyes. And I absolutely love it. The fact is, if a game is still fun even when you are doing horribly at it, it is doing something right. From what I've heard, the sequel is much more accessible, but the original Pathalogic is something special indeed.

A walk in a bandit-infested park
This game features a lot of walking. It took me 25 hours to beat the Bachelor campaign, and 20 of those were probably spent walking, 3 were spent reading dialogue and two were spent quickloading. And I absolutely recommend it. It's a very immersive experience, and later on your walks get spiced up with all kinds of obstacles. Obviously, the selling point of the game isn't its walking mechanics, it's the story. But I am not here to spoil the story for you. You'll have to uncover that for yourself.

Play it for yourself, you might like it
I liked this game and am glad I tried it. There are portions of Pathologic I will never forget, feelings it instilled in me that linger in my mind - how many games can say that? But I also feel cheated by Pathologic. There are, online, copious warnings about how monotonous the gameplay can be, but I found the gameplay elements added a deal of gravitas to every action you as the player perform. Where do you choose to walk? Who will you take the effort to talk to? Do you engage in the local economies to aid your later survival, or do you rush to your next location, worried about ever-fleeting time? It's brilliant. Nor do the graphics bother me - the art direction (complemented by the strong sound and music choices) has a lasting strength, aging far better than mere polygons do. No, I feel cheated because of Pathologic's oft-lauded writing. The game displays an adventure-game-logic to its dialogue options. Will this option continue a conversation, end it, fail a quest for you? Who knows! Select it and save scrum if you don't like it. Which major NPC in the previous conversation do you have to talk to next to continue the plot? Dunno! Sometimes the quest log helps you decide, sometimes it doesn't. Most often the journal is filled with nonsense and flowery descriptions of dialogue and events that are no way accurate. Sometimes there are map markers put down, sometimes there aren't. Sometimes places are referred to only by their colloquial names (Spleen, Tannery, Earth, etc.) that ARE NOT LABELED ON THE MAP (you figure some of them out quickly, others...), sometimes not. Sometimes the game outright tells you who to talk to, but others times you can wander around for hours looking for an NPC to give you the day's mission. This is not the most important game you never played. This is a great work of art, and the passion of the creators should be lauded and supported. Video games can be art, but being artistic does not a good video game make.

Reminds me of real life.
Yeah, with the Covid-19 outbreak this is a great game to play in these trying times. Great story, yet horrible gameplay with me questioning my sanity for most of the game.
