The conclusion

It is definitely a good story. Original Dreamfall game didn't have an ending. This one does. It concludes the story and does it quite well. Not flawless, but well. Dialogues are decent, music is awesome, artwork is great. Unfortunately, I can't tell the same about the actual "game" part of the game. If you played the Dreamfall and you liked it (as did i), then you'll probably like the Dreamfall Chapters as well. The gameplay is almost similar to original Dreamfall (minus clumsy fighting sequences, there are none of them here). You walk around, talk to some people, look at things, pick them up, combine them and use at some places later. But there are very few actual puzzles in the game, so for the most time you'll be doing the walking around and looking/talking part. And there are also cutscenes. Lots of cutscenes. The last chapter is almost one huge cutscene with almost none interactions. On the technical side, the game was really buggy after the initial release, but it much better now. Switching to Unity 5 made it run smoother and look a little better. Character animations are terrible, but I think, I can forgive that. So, in the end, we have a good story with quite a little game to actually play. If you're fine with it, you should give it a try. If you're searching for something like the "rubber duck puzzle" from original TLJ, you'll probably be disappointed. This is indeed a conclusion of the Dreamfall dilogy. And it also can be considered as a conclusion of The Longest Journey trilogy, but I still hope, that they will make the sequel to the TLJ itself some day.

Достойное продолжение

Пройти всю серию игр я решился только недавно, в детстве играл во вторую часть и она подарила тогда мне прямо-таки волшебные эмоции. Поэтому сейчас я прошел все игры подряд. И знаете что? Это оно, то самое ощущение. Все три игры - это единая цельная история, выдержанная в одном стиле - добром, тёплом и немного наивном. Игровая индустрия немного "повзрослела", вместе с ней "повзрослела" и игра. От квеста-прародителя осталось очень мало, теперь это игра про разговоры и сюжетные выборы, но сама суть серии осталась. Для меня здесь нет разных частей, нет глав, есть одна Бесконечная История и одно Бесконечное Путешествие.

Beautiful experience

I played the first game 20 years ago and the second one 10 years ago or so. Very satisfying experience in all of them. I like this kind of games where you can enjoy it without feeling stressed out, you can screw it up and it's ok, I felt stress-free just enjoying this beautiful world. Fantasy + relatable characters and moments + humor + touching moments remembering things from the past and connecting them in the story (if you have played the other ones). I love it!

One Kickstarter I love to have backed

I backed the campaign and didn't expect too much but surprisingly, Dreamfall Chapters ended up absolutely wonderful. It not only tries to tie up all the loose threads that Dreamfall left open but it's actually a very good game on its own. It's a beautiful modern adventure game with large locations to explore but doesn't annoy you with pointless collections tasks, inventory puzzles or hidden objects. Most riddles are exploration based, which is a good thing as you want to explore the wonderful environment. Almost everything bad in Dreamfall was improved: the locations are larger, no more stupid fights or logic puzzles and this time the mouse/keyboard controls work perfectly. The graphics are more or less state of the art with nice shaders and lighting. However, the quality of facial details varies a lot. While Zoë looks stunning and Enu or Saga still look great, some important side characters like Hanna or Nela lack any detail and look cartoonish. And some characters like Commander Vamon or Warden Murron have exaggerated facial features that make them look like caricatures. There are also some issues with the shadows and I had a few crashed while loading new chapters. Even worse, there are story bugs: e.g. though the player decides to kiss Anna etc., the game concludes that Kian is gay. That makes the player's decisions feel somewhat worthless. Also displaying names of backers for extras felt wrong and distracting - especially in Marcuria. Anyway, my main point of criticism is the lack of any kind of save or sub chapter restart system. The people of RTG should take a look at the outstanding "Life is Strange" to see how to implement a sensible chapter/save system that allows you to revisit parts of the story without destroying your main save game. But well, despite of these points, I still had a lot of fun playing Chapters. I'm so happy that this Journey has finally come to a good end and still hopeful that I might return to the Dreamfall universe with Saga one day.

Continuation

More of the same kind of thing as in the earlier episodes, but less combat and stealth. TONS of dialog (still). The story-forking decisions play an expanded role in this episode. Still a fair bit of errand churning. If you've played the earlier ones, you know what to expect, but if not, please read a lot more reviews, or you might end up really unhappy, or, you could be pleasantly surprised with a new franchise. The storytelling leaves you with characters you will never forget, like your favourite books. If you don't have a favourite book, you'll probably hate this within 5 minutes, and be tearing your hair out and cursing new combinations of words to try to exorcise the pain. But if you do enjoy sweeping stories that take root in your mind, then this might be just the trick. During the episodic release cycles, the dev team updated the game engine from a strained Unity 4 engine to the Unity 5 engine, and it really looks amazing. I replayed the almost two chapters, and while the general story remains unchanged, the activities and visuals are often really different with the engine changes, and less glitches too. The previous games always looked beautiful (not always the most cutting edge, but gorgeous nonetheless) for their respective release periods, and similarly so here. It's not Witcher 3 realistic, but completely immersive, and I'll often stop and look around, appreciating the sounds and sights, or appreciating the same rye humour embedded throughout, like the others. The story developments and characters evolve and attach to your feelings, and it's a big environment too (though it has a few invisible barriers, but it's plenty big enough). I haven't finished the end yet, but I already feel completely justified in my purchase. My only question is about the 'Final Cut' package. As the different chapters and fixes were released, some bits of content were added too. Is my 'standard version' with all the cumulative updates the same as the Final Cut version (excluding the DLC content), or has there been all new actual sections added? In the video, I see a crow flying through the Arcadia park in Chapter 2, and I don't believe I saw that in either the Unity engines 4 or 5: maybe there are new cut scenes? That should be clarified in the description, because you can't always count on what everyone says in the forums, and you can't always count on the marketing people to be clear either. Someone needs to spell out once and for all if there is new content is in this version that isn't in the most up-to-date, patched 'normal version', and if so, is it all new scenes, or just some brief transitory cutscenes that might be beautiful, but don't alter any information in any way...
