The Signifier Director's Cut

(my own personal opinion) HORIBLE, from the start i had problems, while having xinput controllers fully supported, the game sometimes didnt register my controller, sometimes it did but managed to freeze until input from keyboard and mouse. I was struggling to do anything, it was incredibely annoying, spent almost 30 minutes in game for a sequence that normally takes less than 10. Other than that the game runs very smoothly on my "worse" pc, it's optimized and features fun mechanics that would've been good, if not for my personal struggles with the playthrough. If you're playing on keyboard it might be a good pick, however I do not plan to play it, or rather finishing it.

Man muss sich darauf einlassen was das Spiel von einem will. Dann bekommt man allerdings einen echt guten Mystery-Thriller geliefert.

some of the story elements felt strange ad out of place, certain gameplay elements were incredibly janky, character animations/models were mostly uncanny, but imo none of the flaws in this game matter even a little bit when compared to all the positives. the visuals when exploring memories are incredible. probably my favorite visuals from any game ever. the way that the game played with the concept of memory, and the way things were twisted and abstracted, just so good. admittedly really complex to finish and definitely required walkthroughs at a few points but so worth it.

cool detection bits, very weird game, hell yeah

The game is mid, but those voices. aaaaaah, they are incredible!

Sajnos néha voltak olyan bugok, amik miatt újra kellett kezdeni egy-egy szakaszt, illetve pár feladvány szerintem nem egészen egyértelmű. Ettől függetlenül a játék megérdemel egy esélyt a sztori aktualitása miatt, ami az AI fejlődésének veszélyeit fejtegeti. Szerencsére olyan jellegű filozófálgatásról van szó, amit be lehet fogadni, emberi nyelvezetű. Külön tetszett a memóriák vizualitása (kifeszített fotó textúrák tárgyakra látószemszögből), illetve ez a szubjektívitás-objektivitás térváltás mechanika, jól bemutatja, hogy működik az AI, meglepően logikus a játék. Csak azok a rohadt bugok ne lennének...

Slow, long loading times and feels like work. Also the controls are weird and context-sensitive, making it seem like a badly camouflaged and over-complicated walking sim. The only positive is that it is technically playable with only 8 GB of RAM.

Pretty good, but very janky and rough around the edges. It's mostly a walking sim/detective game, so gameplay-wise there isn't a lot going on. But exploring the memories is done in a very unique way. The story also has some inteteresting ideas about AI. Might be worth it if it's on sale and you don't mind reading parts of the story and just standing there, listening to the dialog.

This was a surprisingly interesting and relevant game that delves into the nature of AI and consciousness. It's a bit unpolished, but still well worth experiencing.
