Gone Home and it's problems
In Gone Home, you search an empty house and look for clues as to why is it empty. The visuals of this game are nice and they won't insult anyone. If anything, they invoke quite a lot of nostalgia for those who lived in the 1990 and can remember all the stuff in the house. Plus you can interact with almost every object so, maybe you can get a kick out of throwing stuff around. The game also manages to create a feeling of mystery which is, sadly, completely wasted. Voice acting ingame is nothing to write home about but, since there is only one person speaking through 99% of the game, its fine. The story is pieced together from diaries, audio tapes and sticky notes, which is fine, but the problem is the story itself. *SPOILERS AHEAD* It solely depends on your view of homosexuals. If you are an extremely conservative person, or a person of deep religious conviction, it may stirr something within you. Same goes if you were ever a victim of prejudice against said people. Other than that, the story is boring and the praise it gets is solely derived from the fact that it deals with gay people. Make it a straight couple that has difficulties being together and it really has nothing to it. *END OF SPOILERS* In the end, this game should have been a short novel and it would have been better off that way, since anything besides the weak story has no need to be there. The two stars are for the visuals and the 90's feel, and an additional one for the, albeit wasted, atmosphere.
