I really want to give this one a try, hopefully will get too it. My backlog grows much faster than I can clear it.

Great and unique art style and I liked the Sci-fi story. However, does get boring due to the lack of gameplay and just walking from one character to another. Found myself almost falling asleep in parts due to the glacial pace.

Overall I did like it and if they did another game in this style needs some gameplay like puzzles. It would also have benefited from having choices with consequences like Telltale games.

Sadly, I found it incredibly boring after 3.5hrs. I was looking forward to it after all the hype.

I had a friend show it to me, and the art style is exquisite… just a shame the actual “game” part of it isn’t all that interesting. I gave it a 6/10. Was considering resubbing to Gamepass before trying it to experience the game, but I’m glad I didn’t. Until Silksong then…

Only played for about an hour it is a slight bit boring I think a game like this needs good funny humor but it's all just a bit dry and Dull but I might go back at some point down the line

Not going to vote as I've only played it a bit yesterday, and it's only getting going so I can't comment overall. though I've liked what I've played so far with some interesting characters and a great setting. Looking forward to putting more time in this week.

Been watching my son play it the past few days and it's a really beautiful game. The art style is amazing. I am enjoying the story as well.

To me, it looked like it was a case of Style over Substance - All the effort going to create a great looking game with an impressive Artstyle but didn't bother to build a 'Game'.

A great story or great writing isn't enough on its own in a 'Game' for me, neither is Great artstyle or graphics. Its the Game-play that matters most to me. I've played enjoyable games where the story or writing is generic or even 'non-existent', but the Game-play is Solid and fun but don't finish games where the Story or Graphics are great, but the game-play is 'dull'.

I think I'd rather watch this as a CGI TV/Film than play it - if the Story is that good because the Game-play itself doesn't make me want to try it...
