In spite of not liking games of that genre (where you walk and explore while listening to a narration) and usually getting bored in the mid of a classical adventure games, I've been captured by that one and played through it in on shot. Firewatch is plausible. Consistently. And that is exactly what I miss and hunt for in videogames and other media. I loved the pace at which the plot unravels. I didn't feel I am following a linear story (while of course realizing it is so). And the ending is also nice. Not being an epic or overly dramatic, Firewatch leaves some unique emotinal impact, some illusion of a life experience. It is short, but that's the price for a good story without artificial twists. Will probably look for more games like that.
