Ether One

TLDR: this game is slow, scattered, and a maze. Don't play it. Having played for half an hour, I still have no idea who I am as a character, or why I should care about them. But wait, I'm also some kind of psychiatrist, so now I have to start caring about a patient I don't know about, with training I don't have? The pacing is horrible - the opening level has about ten rooms to wander around in, but only a couple items besides history notes. That wouldn't be too bad if the walking speed wasn't horribly slow. I spent the whole time holding down the run button, and _still_ felt like I couldn't go fast enough. (Also pretty jarring that I can somehow still jump three feet in the air like a gymnast.) I got lost on the second level, just trying to find where I should go. It's a simple path from the forest edge down into the town...and then a loop around a table with no other doors or anywhere for me to go? I can see the potential here - it's got elements of psychology, mystery, sci-fi, retro-future...but the game they ended up with is a mess.

Garbage game tries to install some unreal engine malware in order to be able to play.

A decent environmental narrative game. Ether One has an interesting world to explore and its design and detail provides a tranquil atmosphere. Some of the puzzles are needlessly confused and its story doesn't strike the emotional chords that were aimed for. Still, you can tell the developers placed a lot of effort into this and it's certainly a cut above the average experience of the genre. A breath of fresh ether. 6/10

Etwas irre, aber super Story und tolle Rätsel! :)

I played this originally on the PS but wanted to revisit it. It has a very poignant narrative. The puzzles though are sometime quite abstract. I wanted to complete the game and I could have "finished" without a walkthrough, but because I wanted to explore everything I needed a walkthrough - there's a whole 'optional' area that's really easy to miss. Some of the puzzles are fiendish, because its often hard to know whether an item is needed nearby, later on or not at all. But the story is interesting and heart wrenching, worth the time and there are walkthroughs available for when you get stuck.

Do not recommend the game. It launches on my integrated CPU graphics instead of RTX card. I cannot play with 5 FPS. Developers know about the bug, but don't want to fix it. Similar happen to their gamed called Occupation, it crashes for me after 2 minutes of playing.

The first hour or two were pretty engaging. The story starts out interesting and the settings are intriguing, however, the story quickly fizzles out and loses all momentum and the surroundings grow less intriguing with every minute spent backtracking. If you want to completely reveal the whole story without any sort of walkthrough, be prepared to spend over 30 hours in this walking sim.

I love walking sims, but you lost me at a walk speed of 0.5 mph and a "run" speed of 1 mph.

bon jeu belle aventure sa change des monstres belle advanture je le conseille

I can't recommend a puzzle game that has known bugs which block correct puzzle solutions, as much as I liked the game
