Excellent story but on rails
I must say this is a great game with a very good story, and I have enjoyed it. The game world is interesting and a lot of care has been put into perhaps mundane but important aspects such as toilets, mess halls, personal effects etc. The way you get more and more into the story is very interesting with realistic characters (with the exception of the end game boss fight which is ridiculous and has almost no lore despite potentially being really interesting and answering many questions). The philosophical questions it poses and the fact that it explores multiple sides of the same question are really great and it is all in all a very respectable sci-fi story that I'd love to read in a book. My only issue with it is that there is absolutely no choice and the protagonist sometimes has very strong ideas that conflict with my own. At times this is not a problem as it brings up some interesting psychological conundrums, but other times it's just in the way a bit, and I feel like I have questions or statements to make that the game just doesn't let me. Another issue, if I were to nit pick, is that the story is sometimes kind of hard to follow with a lot of characters and the use of first names, surnames and abbreviated names making it hard to understand who was stationed where and what their role was. Another small issue with it is that the story is mostly told via reading or audio logs, which is not as interesting as actually being able to interact with real characters. It sometimes feels like I'm reading a book about what happened instead of being there. PS: I highly recommend playing in Safe Mode, the monsters are generally just a nuisance and sometimes prevent you from enjoying the lore. Plus, the game doesn't exactly tell you how to deal with each type of monster (and sometimes actually harms you, e.g. angler fish that are attracted to light) so it's a lot of frustration with little benefit from the artificial tension that most of the game isn't there anyway.
