Insufferable
I played this game over a decade ago or maybe even longer, and it definitely has not aged well. I remember it was fun and great looking. I was at a different time in my life, and now that I'm older, the game still looks great, but the gameplay is awful, the over narration of the main character and the endless pointless stupid dialogue threads that go on for eternity for every single character just make this game a drudgery and a chore. I haven't played the third one yet, which was really the whole reason I decided to play these games again, but I'm not sure I have the endurance to make it through this second game to make it to the final chapter. This game violates many rules of good gameplay and storytelling, the most glaring fault is as I mentioned above, the main character tells you everything that is happening, and then we see exactly on screen what the main character just said. Shut up already. I really don't get it, when game developers think they can tell a story because they have some technical chops. The story here is thin, just like the first Runaway game, and it's really a shame. The skeleton to tell a compelling story with actual likeable characters is here, but the designers are obviously lacking in the plot and good storytelling skills. The characters are extremely unlikeable, the pixel hunting and walking back and forth a million times to blindly stumble onto the reason why you need to oh I dunno, ride a mechanical bull or get your picture taken in a wood cutout frame, and what for? So many tasks seem idiotic and pointless, distracting and only vaguely related to the main task of once again, rescuing Gina, which after she lied and manipulated Brian in the first game, why do we care? Skip this one, unless you are a completist and a masochist.
