Quick, easy, digestible, satisfying. Not a meal but a great snack
Without being redundant, my 2 cents: keep in mind that the og version had you mostly reading without voiceover. You'd mostly speed-read, skim, and slow down to focus on whatever you deem important or particularly interesting. With it being fully dubbed, there's a bit of trouble trying to read quickly with the voiceover conflicting with you trying to read. So you can end u skipping a ton. There's over one million words. The actors speak at 150 wpm on average. That would be over 100 hours just for in-game dialogue (in total, so a playthrough would be only a third). Add to that actual gameplay, and that's a ton of time to spend in little old Revachol. So not sure how to consolidate those differences in versions. The quality of writing and acting are totally worth it though, if my humble opinion counts. Other than that, really great game. Only 4/5 because with all due respect 5/5 is a very particular league of either perfection or simply a much higher level of production. Also, the game isn't as perfect as some players who, fell in love with the game (such as myself), would have you believe. However, all the gameplay aspects that could've or should've been done differently are justified when you consider this game wasn't made by game designers, but by an art collective who just wanted to put a dent in this medium. And man, did they hit a home run.
