Triumph of the Ordinary
Vague spoilers, don't read this is you're the least bit wary of them. Firewatch is a game whose rising action feels similarly to other contemporary works whose focus is on the extraordinary, placing the player in the role of someone at the critical point of life or death. This arc dissolves sharply somewhere and forces the protagonist to once-again face the ordinary he was so desperately seeking to escape in the beginning. The seemingly boring interaction between two people is the focus of this game, and I deeply empathize with those players who found this a disappointment. For me it was refreshing that the high drama so common in other games was shattered in this story. My own personal bent is that players shouldn't expect a lot of replay out this game, if at all. It's like a fun short story you might come back to after a span of years. The creators deserve the [in my opinion] reasonable full price; for the beautiful art, voice acting, lovely albeit-muted soundtrack, and just great theme. But a sandbox or dynamic choice-rich game this is not and I am thankful for it, at least for this one game.
