Syberia is an amazing adventure, I'm not a fan of this genre, but liked it a lot. Puzzles are very logical and simple in a good way. Storytelling and characters are great, it was especially nice to see how main character changes through out the game. Backgrounds look decent even today (character models - not so much).
Deadlight had a lot of potential but fell short mostly due to technical issues. Clunky animations and a lot bugs including game breaking ones. And this is in Director's cut version published 4 years after initial release. Cutscenes are fine, but the plot itself is terrible, full of deus ex machina and situations that just do not make any sense. Visuals are good, backgrounds are even great. Action felt really satisfying from time to time despite poor animation.
