stunningly beautiful immersive adventure
I haven't been this enraptured with exploring a game since Myst and Riven. The ambiance and lovely scenery is overlaid with a sense of dread and foreboding. Many a time I just didnt want to go any further but of course I kept on as I had to know what happened to little Ethan. Pros: extremely gorgeous graphics. I played at ultra high setting and it was worth the small stutters and bits of lag. Every leaf and petal is drawn and animated. I could tell at a glance certain species of trees, plants, lichen and moss. The sound of wind whistling thru leaves or rattling rusting bits of metal or creaking rotting wood was exceptional. I was totally lost in this game, and in a good way. Want to see whats at the top of that hill, go ahead, take a look at a stunning sunset, want to look over a creaking bridge to the rocky water below.. go ahead... peek, take your time. Its part of the game. The story was spectacular, at times totally confusing but in the end it all comes together...and my.. how it does. Movement was fluid and game mechanics pretty easy to use. Cons: as others have said the lack of saves unless you hit some story gateway is cumbersome and annoying. Having to replay hours of game because you had to step away from the game, or in my case came up with a game glitch lost all immersion which took time to get back and forgive. lack of any guide or clue as to what to do was hard, areas i had combed over had to be redone due to not understanding that I had to go back and trigger an event, even tho I had already clicked the areas many times was frustrating. so basically, a stunning immersive and innovative game whose only drawback was some of the intrusive 'game play' mechanics. Still a wonderful game with such a tale to weave, it is one of a kind and should be applauded
