Uninteresting walking simulator

First of all, I do enjoy walking-simulator and simple stories, I didn't play this looking for something it's not, like some people probably did. But it simply is not a good walking-simulator and it is not capable of tell something interesting. There are some positive things to be said about it, though. It has a great atmosphere, the scenarios are crafted with great details and it is relaxing to walk around searching for information about the story. It manages to make you intrigued and asking what is going on for the first minutes. Unfortunately, this positive impression doesn't last long. Once you are a bit into the story you already know everything that is coming next and it becomes a uninteresting road to the credits. That's a bad story telling. There's nothing at all that catches your attention back, no new characters, no new subplots... There are some topics about family relationships showing up later in the game, but even that is so bland that it adds nothing. Even for how short the game is, I feel like this story does not deserve so much time and detail on characters we never really care about. If you just want you play some relaxing story game at your own pace, this is not bad, but don't expect something great. Also, the full price is too much for what it offers.
