Kathy Rain 2: Soothsayer

Buena continuación del anterior juego. Muy disfrutable, puzles no muy complejos, el apartado artístico es muy bueno siendo pixelart, y musicalmente está bien. Solo hay dos cosas que no me han entrado, y que quede claro que aún así me ha gustado bastante: 1-Aquí, al contrario del primer Kathy, sí que se cae en el cliché de 'soy una mujer independiente, empoderada y por tanto una borde y trato a la gente mal, y además me pongo hasta arriba de perico y alpiste porque estoy enfadada con el mundo'. Aquí a Kathy se le nota mucho que es, básicamente, una interesada de mierda. 2-SI en el anterior el tema paranormal estaba un poco cogido con pinzas y, al menos yo, no terminé de pillarlo del todo, aquí se da por sentado que sabes de qué va, así que peor. Hay alguna cosilla que no encaja, como el camello que estando en los 90 se viste y habla como si fuese de los 70. Aún así, es una aventura bastante disfrutable y no muy compleja, si no se te atasca ningún puzle en un par de tardes la tienes.

somehow even better than 1

this game is great, its everything we had in the original and more, while also fixing some of those small problems, quick tip, if youre back tracking, double click on the exit of the stage to teleport there, i dont remember if that was a feature in the original but i thought it was cool. one major thing i want to give props to is the voice acting, it was good in the original, especially with characters such as [spoiler] The Crimson One [/spoiler] but in this game there were so many good performances, my personal favourite was [spoiler] The Old God, but Kathy's mother was also phenomenal [/spoiler] all and all, its worth a buy

一周目13个小时打完的，对话文本量偏多，且无中文，有时候脑子转不过来弯经常会在某个地方卡住半个小时没有进展，有的推进剧情的物品非常小，不明显，一定要把每个场景都仔细搜索。但是这个剧情啊也是衔接了第一部，每个人物的刻画都很好，像性格，说话习惯这些，有时候玩家选东西选错了，Kathy姐还会进行幽默地吐槽。这种彩色像素类的美术风格也是做得非常柔和美丽，让我疯狂截图，不生硬，不塑料，特别是雨天很有氛围感，你Kathy Rain漂亮大姐姐顶着一头蓝发穿着黑色皮夹克直接是骑着摩托在大雨中风驰电掣。还有这个光头蛋先生你给我低调点，没有人是无敌的，除了你Kathy Rain姐！

Good puzzles, stunning graphic and OK story.

An excellent point and click adventure game. Even better than the first one. If you like this genre of games, this is a must play.

nice mystery game that scratches 90s point and click games summary - you play as kathy rain, an investigator looking into murders of the soothsayer i really enjoyed how this game encourages you to click everything you can think of. and it lets you experiment on combining or interacting with items i also liked how it gives you a recap of the first game at the beginning. it's been a few years since i played the first one, so i don't remember the details. just the gist i wasn't really satisfied with some of the characters or places you go. it felt either like a one time thing that added unnecessary space or they felt unsatisfied. no spoilers, but some characters just...don't exist anymore? what happened to them? it felt like they were just there to advance a moment in the plot and then disregarded at the end. or you go to a place one or two times and then you don't go back. i felt like that could've removed that spot and extended it to other places. it just felt disconnected. i don't remember the original game, but i remember everything connected a lot better and was more cohesive. so i say kathy rain 2 is better gameplay wise, but the story of kathy 1 i enjoyed more additionally, some the puzzles felt a little obtuse. while i really like how some puzzles you had to read in between the lines (like any good investigator would), there were some puzzles that just made me go "what?" and there are a few puzzles where you would only use an item or location one time and be done. it didn't feel like a good use of that puzzle still a really great game. if kathy rain 3 comes out, i'll add it to my wishlist
