Je rencontre ici un vrai problème ; Ceci n’est PAS un jeu. A part le fait d’appuyer bêtement de temps en temps sur le bouton A, nous n’avons strictement aucune incidence sur le déroulé de l’histoire. De plus, il n’y a aucun dialogue ni texte à lire ce qui me dérange un peu, même si je comprend le parti pris. Je suis tout de même déçu car je m’attendais à un minimum d’expérience de jeu, de choix, d’interactions plus vivantes que de manger des plats en appuyant sur A cinq fois. Cependant, il s’agit ici d’un court métrage très beau, artistiquement réussi et qui sais raconter sa petite histoire, de façon très modeste et sublime à la fois. C’est pourquoi mon évaluation est positive. Mais sachez juste où vous mettez les pieds : ce n’est pas un jeu video mais une très belle démonstration du studio Arc System Works en terme d’animation (rotoscopie).
Si vous avez une heure devant vous, et envie de vous poser devant une jolie narration avec de forts belles illustrations, Dear me, I was est pour vous. Il m'a fait verser des larmes malgré sa courte durée de vie, peut-être que des choses feront écho en vous et viendront vous toucher le coeur au plus profond. Une petite pépite cachée que je relancerais avec plaisir, il m'a donné envie de sortir mon matériel de dessin et de foncer parce que la vie est trop courte.

Very lovely story, told without any text, so some details might get lost... but the overall feeling is the same, and I enjoyed every second of it. If you enjoy a nice little story, and gorgeous visuals, then this game is for you. :)
Не все поймут, не все догонят, но все же поиграть наверно стоит. =)
HERMOSO
This is less of a game and more of an experience, a picture book that occasionally remembers that its technically a game and should get the player to actually do something, in this games case, this is not a bad thing at all. A very beautiful story that made me cry, very short at about 45 minuets but the steam page description doesn't hide the short length of the story, and honestly, it doesn't need to be any longer than it already is, the story presents itself perfectly with the time it blesses us with its presence, With no dialogue the movements of the characters and the detailing of the colours used (or lack thereof in some scenes) really makes the art shine, you can tell that the artist worked on the Hotel Dusk games as they all have the same scratchy pencily animation that really brings them to life. The soundtrack is phenomenal, it is masterfully used scene by scene to really sell the impact of the moment happening and the end credit music is a masterpiece. The story itself, I will admit to getting lost at certain points, but I am a bit thick when it comes to nuance sometimes, but really thinking about it and watching our nameless characters life go by really makes think about the deeper meanings of the relationships we have with others and also mourning what could have been if we made different decisions. 100/10 game, play it blind if you can as the first watching of this story will give you the full emotional impact of it.
Chorei do primeiro ao último minuto desse jogo. Foram 45 minutos de lágrimas. Isso não é exagero, é real. Espero ter ajudado.
https://legeekparesseux.fr/test-gaming/dear-me-i-was Dear me, I Was nous rappelle qu’en dépit des difficultés, des pertes et des épreuves, il est toujours possible de continuer, de grandir et de trouver de petits moments de bonheur. Pour moins de 8 €, cette courte aventure d’environ une heure parvient à nous faire ressentir une incroyable palette d’émotions. Chaque instant est pensé pour toucher, sans dialogues, sans mauvais choix, simplement par l’histoire, les sons et les magnifiques illustrations. Si vous cherchez un jeu qui se vit plus qu’il ne se joue, un jeu capable de vous émouvoir et de vous laisser une empreinte durable, je ne peux que vous recommander Dear me, I Was. Une expérience courte, mais profondément marquante.
Se il tuo intento era ravvivare la trepidazione che provo per un possibile ritorno di quella perla qual è Hotel Dusk… mannaggia a te Taisuke Kanasaki se ci sei riuscito in pieno. Ti odio con tutto il mio amore.
Thanks I hate it
