I absolutely love adventure games but this one is boring, has awful graphics and is full of bugs. I really don't understand how it has such a high rating.
I love adventure games very much and have purchased many titles from GoG, but this is the first time I have written a review. I have been playing adventure games for years and love solving puzzles. After only playing this game a few hours I quit playing and uninstalled it. The reasons being the vastly overdone dialogs which seem to go on forever without an end in sight, the amount of profanity used in the dialogs which added absolutely nothing to the story, the obnoxious attitude of the main character which added nothing to the story, the large amount of references to homosexuality (which has absolutely no place being in a game), puzzles that make absolutely no sense, and the list goes on. I am not sure what the creators of this game had in mind when they were developing it, but they obviously lacked direction and insight, which easily explains why FunCom has lost so much money over the years. FunCom turned what could have been a very good game into something that I wouldn't even rate as one star.
This is an old adventure style game, made by the company who made Age of Connan and cheated thousands of people.
While Longest Journey has some good points, it is a game that appears to be way more than it really is.. as usually by Funcom.
Title to avoid in my opinion.
