I hate this game
I wish I could put into words how much I despised the experience of playing this game. I never played the original, so maybe I don't have nostalgia to see me through, but honestly it just became torture. Some parts of the world were very pretty to look at, some of the atmospheric audio was nice, and the brief musical moments were cool too. But I utterly loathe exporing Riven. I felt like I could figure out the logical puzzles quickly, but I got so sick of missing tiny details or hotspots over and over, which made me backtrack again and again looking for something I missed. And there were a few moments that seemed like potential softlocks, where I wasn't sure if I hadn't broken the game state. There was no indication of whether I was making progress. I just kept moving into new areas, seeing things, not knowing if I had seen everything, and then moving on. I found information, dutifully saved it, screencapped it, or wrote it down, but then never found ways to apply the vast majority of it. It got to the point that I didn't even want to use a walkthrough to complete the game. I'm just sick of it. I'm sick of the aesthetic, sick of the endless wandering, and sick of never feeling like anything significant has happened. This honestly ranks up there as one of the worst gaming experiences of my life. I'm so irritated that I wasted my money on making myself miserable for an entire weekend. I hope to never think of this game again.
