Telling Lies

Exclente história, o modelo de jogo, amei, perdi uns dois anos de vida com o sustão que tomei [spoiler] quando ele levou o tiro! [/spoiler] Mas é insuportável conseguir a palavra do minuto 7 do vídeo de 8 minutos, voltar tudo de forma absurdamente lenta pra depois descobrir que o video não acrescentou nada.

Tbh I get the frustration with the rewind system. No question about it, they could've made it a bit more functional. However, right here in the reviews there is a person who made a perfectly functional plugin that allows you to skip videos back and forth in one click. Should the devs have made that? Absolutely, but we all know that no game is perfect and that's why modmakers exist :D Now, with that out of the way, I will say that I thoroughly enjoyed the game. Yes, it is not the same as Her Story, but it is just different because it was designed to be different. It's a slow burner: Her Story got you hooked immediately, but also felt like a quick burst, while this one adds on and on as you keep playing. It is not that easy to crack as it was in Her Story where the main reveal can be discovered pretty fast. Here you can discover David's occupation pretty fast, but it is not even remotely the biggest reveal of the story. Different layers of the story add more and more questions, most of which are left unanswered, but even better since you have just enough space for speculations and guesses. I really liked the timing mechanic where you got interruptions every hour at night (the cat one was obviously my favourite :D). Actors are great, all of them! Personally for me, the only thing that could potentially be considered a minus, is a few videos lasting 7-8 min and not having much in them. But even then it made perfect sense because you just need to find the matching vid where you will get loads of content in those 7-8 min. Overall, I definitely consider the game underrated. The story is insanely interesting and keeps you invested until the end. For those frustrated about the rewind system, just look up the plugin here in the reviews.

It's not a perfect game by any means. The ending sequence is cringeworthy, and I couldn't connect with the main character - he was so annoying at the beginning. Immortality is better on all fronts. Still, I liked my time with this one. Not many games make watching "cutscenes" the core mechanic while keeping some real player agency. Can't wait to see what Sam Barlow does next!

God I love crying and Sam Barlow

Хорошая игра про аналитика ФБР расследующего дело оперативника ФБР, возможно спойлер но как по мне тут скрытая тема утечки информации!

I really enjoyed this one. I honestly don't know how it got mixed reviews.

I honestly like this less than Her Story, but it's still pretty good. The narrative isn't as open as Her Story where you can happen upon the solution in the first ten minutes and the story is pretty straightforward. Not a bad thing though might be a bit disappointing if you want something that'll make you theorise.

El juego tiene una historia muy interesante y mola mucho la forma en la que la descubres, ya que los clips de vídeo no te los dan en orden cronológico por lo que tienes que ordenarlos tú en tu cabeza. Ahora, el no poder rebobinar los vídeos hasta el principio de forma fácil y sencilla hace que pueda ser muy tedioso y frustrante querer verlos desde el principio, por lo que RECOMIENDO ENCARECIDAMENTE instalarse el mod que te permite hacerlo. Se puede encontrar fácilmente en las discusiones de la comunidad.

Нас пытаются заинтересовать необычностью сюжета, разнообразностью сцен и персонажей, что добавляет некоторой динамичности, в отличие от предыдущей игры, Her Story, где все сцены были интервью с одной актрисой. Но здесь жирный минус в том, что сцены составлены из диалога между двумя персонажами, причём показывают нам только одного отдельно от другого, сцены с которой мы должны найти, и поэтому большую их часть мы должны смотреть как один слушает пустоту, и это, мягко говоря, не впечатляет, особенно когда по другую сторону экрана сочится неведанный монолог. Первая игра была неограниченной по времени и с неочевидным концом, а здесь всё делается в скором порядке на время, что мы обнаруживаем внезапно, когда игра заканчивается ни с того, ни с сего. В общем, суть как в первой игре, только другой сюжет с другими персонажами, фрагментарный с многим лишним, но чуть привлекательнее, чем в первой игре. Здесь хотя бы мы увидим чем заканчивается ложь. 3,0/5,0

Gameplay doesn't babysit you but it's fine for me
