I cannot believe the sorry-ass state this game is in.
Tried to launch it for the first time: it crashed. Tried to start a new game: it crashed.
I thought I had fixed it but about 10 hours in it keeps on crashing if I dare play it for more than one hour at a time. Sometimes when entering a building it keeps on loading forever and/or crashes yet again at random. Who in the fukc thought leaving the game in this state was a good idea? Bunch of douches.
Had I known beforehand about all the crashing I would have refunded it but alas that's not possible anymore.

This could have been a good game if it wasn't for the fact that you absolutely cannot skip any previously read dialogues or save when you want, which are features that I deem as necessary in visual novels and I refuse to re-play this game because of it.

Apparently the developers even reassured people that the skipping feature "will be added in the next update for the game" but that was said over a year and a half ago. Guess they abandoned this game uh. Shame. 4/10.

This game is boring. Simple as that. I don't know how I managed to play it for 5 hours but I did. For the first 3 hours literally nothing happened, and I just kept wishing for something, ANYTHING, to move the plot forward. It's such a drag, I don't even know if I'll ever manage to finish it.

If someone would ask me to describe this game with only one word, I'd say "real". It's the realest thing I've ever played.
You witness the horrors of war, but your character is not some soldier behind enemy lines, it's normal people. People that have to survive, and it's up to you to choose how far you're willing to go to do it.

Having both Bruno and Marko dead, my characters were depressed. I went scavenging with Pavle, searching for medicines for Zlata, who was sick and dying. I enter a house, and an old couple still lived there. The husband says that they've already been raided and the little they have is needed for his wife who's sick.
I stood watching my monitor for 15 minutes pondering what to do. I chose to rob them in the end, feeling awful about myself, but I needed those meds.
Zlata tried to comfort Pavle about it, but died anyway the next day. It was all for nothing. I returned to the house, and the old couple was also dead. Pavle killed himself in the end.

This ending put me off the game for a whole year, and I've been able to replay it just a few days ago. I managed to get better endings for all my characters, but not without a cost.
We need games like this, games that make you think hard about morality and life itself. I want to thank the developers for creating such a masterpiece. This is an absolutely beautiful and heart-wrenching thing, but I don't think I'll have the strenght to ever play it again.

The only flaw this game has is that it's too short in my opinion. Other than that, if you liked To The Moon then this is definitely a must play.

I can't really bring myself to recommend this game. It just has too many plot inconsistencies within itself and with LiS and the story feels too rushed, what with the game taking place only in a matter of 3 days and all. Writing is nothing special, and all of episode 3 is just a trainwreck full of awfulness.
I bought the deluxe edition because I wanted to play the extra episode called Farewell - and that I actually liked.

I didn't play this game when it first came out so I decided to pick it up now seeing as it was on sale, plus I loved Heavy Rain and Beyond: Two Souls and wanted to see how this one faired compared to them.
This has to be one of the worst games I've ever played gameplay-wise, I mean I wasted half a hour in the tutorial because I didn't know what the ♥♥♥♥ kinda buttons was I supposed to press when the car came towards me, I remapped the controls to TFGH instead of the numpad and that is helping, but the fact remains that the QTEs are just ret.arded in general and take a lot of space so you barely see what the hell is going on in the game, personally I'm too focused on not screwing them up than paying attention to what is appening on screen, I was just kind of aware that Lucas was running from giant mites-things all of a sudden.
I'm sure that back in 2005 this game was good, but it aged really badly imho. Also I'm not a fan of how the story is unraveling, revealing that there's something supernatural going on, but that is personal preference. I would have liked for the game to be a little more rooted in reality is all.

This was amazing, the feel of the game was captured perfectly and the execution was great too. Definitely a must watch. Glory to Arstotzka.

You'll dump hundred of hours on this game without even knowing, I know I'm doing it. It's so damn addicting and fun, I couldn't remember the last time a boss fight gave me goosebumps, now I get full-fledged panic attacks and I'm not even joking. brb trying to kill BoC for the first time ever.
