rynlingWow, I um. I do not like this game.
Act V (which functions as something like an epilogue) was deeply offensive to me. I'm conflicted about this, because the earlier bits of the game showed such incredible promise.
I feel shitty about launching a sustained critique of a game that was obviously made with love by a small team; but, on the other hand, I don't think one rando picking apart the game on their personal blog is going to stand against multiple Google pages of big-name reviewers saying that this is the most important game of the decade.
So I do want to get into this, but it's going to be a project. Maybe I'll start with what bothered me about Act V and work my way backwards.
