I couldn't get into it and ended up abandoning it

Played on: Playstation 5
Version: Playstation 4
Edition: Digital

Couldn't get into it. This was my second & most likely final attempt at trying this one. Boring & the monsters are just utterly ridiculous. I must say that it does have great lighting & atmosphere.

Final verdict: Don't touch it

A great, intelligent science fiction story that left my jaw agape. Since it's somewhat of a walking simulator, the actual "gameplay" aspects are slim, but, for me, this didn't really matter. The story kept me very engaged and I thought that it handled the "cloning" situation (well, "copying") in a clever way that really hit me hard in the gut on a couple of different instances, and landed the ending perfectly. It was like a great interactive movie.

my 2nd favorite game of all time. it was nothing how i expected. not everyone will get it, as it’s very existential and leaves you thinking and feeling a lot. frictional games never disappoints!
