What Remains of Edith Finch

Unfortunately a poor port

To be clear, this review is not aimed at the game content itself, because I wasn't able to play more than about 10 minutes before feeling sick. Reason? It's a very, very sloppy PC port, with a number of big issues as a result. 1) No way to change FOV, and by default it is set at an incredibly low value. If you use a tiny monitor, or sit on the sofa to play, no problem. If you sit in-front of a large monitor, you'll get a very "zoomed in" view that made me feel physically sick. 2) 16:9 only. If you use a 21:9 screen, or (like me) a 16:10 screen, you're forced to endure black bars as only 16:9 resolutions are supported. 3) No save system, so reliance on flaky checkpoints. In short, I don't really know how good the game could have been as for me, the broken FOV left me feeling sick, whilst the black bars and broken save system also spoilt the game. A real pity. Note: I played the Steam version of this, a GOG purchase is unfortunately out of the question until the PC faults are fixed.
