All this passion, hard work, time, dedication, sweat, tears and time lost laboring on this beautiful masterpiece only to just squat over all that sacrifice and work and defecate over the final moments with such a shallow and empty epilogue blows my mind. Why would they work so hard to in the end not finish the job??
I didn't think this was going to be game of the decade, or game of the year even. No.... I truly thought this was going to be arguably one of the best video games _ever_.
This f' game already sucked 150+ hours out of me, I'm not gonna let it get another hour of me rambling about how the lack of an appropriate epilogue essentially makes the "17,000" different endings is hyperbolic sales bull.s'
The epilogue is a few vague comments on your adventure, nothing unique to what is likely a very unique playthrough. Everything the first 4/5ths of the game has little impact on the ending and you get no closure on any of that stuff that led you to the end of your adventure.
You could skip 4/5ths of the game essentially and it wouldn't matter.
I work 12hrs a day, I got a family I actually enjoy being around, I got stuff to do and so much going on. I'm so angry at myself for wasting my very very very limited free time playing this game and waking up early or staying up late just to make time to finish this!
Ugh!
Final review:
8/10,
Good game but a bit long and choices don't matter that much, but the illusion they do matter significantly is impressive and should be commended esp considering choices mostly don't matter except the last few hours worth of choices.
Decent story, but a bit convoluted and erratic the further you get in the game and the closer you get to its conclusion.
Unrelated to story, game play and game mechanics are fun IMHO.
Don't make the mistake I did, just push through and don't overthink your choices, they don't f' matter.
