Journey

"Journey" is a small tech demo or something, a simple first person adventure in a Japanese town with little point in playing and not much happening. The graphics in this game are really quite good, which at least makes the game look more appealing. And while it's vital for any game to have impressive visuals (gaming is a visual medium, after all), there's more to a game than just the graphics. To be worth a gamers time, the game must match top tier visuals with top tier gameplay, and that's not happening here. Not every "free" game really is. There's often MTX, or content locked behind DLC, or donations being requested, or any other number of things that could mislead gamers, but in this case I'm glad to say this really does appear to be a fully free game. Nothing demonstrates a developers belief in themselves and their work than giving it away without any remuneration. This is a service to themselves, and the gaming industry, and should be applauded. Of course, just because something is free, doesn't necessarily mean it's valuable. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 8 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? This is a "maybe" experience... if you have a lot of free time on your hands and nothing else to do, why not? But for the purposes of a review, this isn't something I can say everyone must try. It's not quite there. Valve doesn't give us a "maybe" option in reviews, but if they did, that's what I'd choose for this.

So I know this is free and this is obv just my opinion but I really don't get this playable teaser. It seems to have the same ending except minor text differences and that's just white text on a black screen. It takes like not even five minutes to literally see everything the teaser has. It's just super odd to me. It feels like they'd be better just not even having this be playable and use it for trailers. In other words even free I think this thing will probably frustrate you and confuse you and it's better to avoid it.

need to fix the black bars after using phone. they remain layered over everything. also alot of the english is still incorrect

雰囲気的には夜廻ってゲームみたいな感じになるのかな？ 続きが気になる

とても面白い試合だ。続きが楽しみだ
