Torment: Tides of Numenera

Wanted to like this, but could not.

Purchased during a sale, returned for refund. I remain surprised at my own reaction to this game. It *should* have been a hit, the critical reviews support that. I have extensive history with the genre and a deep love for the works of the teams involved. But there was nothing enjoyable about this game for me. The mechanics and systems were not enjoyable. I had zero interest or investment into my character and not much more for the NPCs thrown at me from the beginning. The graphics, engine, and audio experience are top notch. I just wish I had cared at all for what was going on enough to enjoy the game on even a base level. It felt flat and uninviting, yet over-complicated and unwieldy.
