Having completed Firewatch, I'm lefting wanting the 5 hours I invested back. The game has an interesting enough premise, the prologue certainly lays the groundwork for a potential epic, but afterwards your left to a back and forward conversation via walkie talkie with another ranger named Deliah while given some tasks that move the game along. The game sets up some interesting set pieces involving fireworks, 2 teen girls that like to skinny dip, a cave with a locked off area, and the highlight, a fenced off no tresspassing area in the outskirts of the park. The setups were there, but the reveals were all pretty disappointing. The ending wasn't too great either. I also experienced motion sickness a number of times while playing. I even used the FOV app, but that didn't help very much. Definitely could not play this in very long bursts without getting ill. I like that it supported achievements, but the achievements were rather buggy. Either they would unlock with no notification or necessary objects to complete certain achievements would fail to spawn. Overall, it's just not worth your time.
