Uma trama envolvente, gostei muito, msm o ritmo sendo um pouco lento
me aburrio, trate de jugarlo por la historia pero la verdad es que no le encontre el gusto, a la historia y a los personajes, no me quiero forzar a jugar algo por terminarlo.
Honestly, it was kind of boring and there was too much happening at the same time. The gameplay is extremely slow and there is too many cut scenes. It is hard to care about the carecters from the start. There is so mant plot elements and twists and turns that you just end up with a 'yeah sure' feeling. I loved LIS btw, so I do enjoy this type of games usually.
Xboxでクリア済み。政治的なテーマについて真面目に取り扱っているDontnodのゲームは好きだけど、どのDontnod作品も雰囲気のエモさが完璧すぎたLife is Strange (2015)の衝撃には及ばない感じ。シナリオはかなり面白いとは思うけど、序盤の展開はスローペースですしオチも割とあっさりめです。あとパズルおもんない。
어우 힘들어 못하겠다
TYLER MY BABYYYYYYYYYY
This game is very storytelling, and it even reminds me of some of the home troubles I have/had. The plot, even just by playing the first chapter, is amazing. I finished this game in one sitting, and I personally think it is amazing.
