I mean, I like the characters and was interested in the story, and that’s honestly all you need from these games.

Typical issues are still present though, like uninformed save-or-die decisions, as well as weird writing this time around; lots of joking around in serious situations and stilted, awkwardly paced conversations that may be the result of the game accounting for your more minor choices.

These are fairly minor, though- biggest issues for me were the total lack of ultrawide support (I had to mod the game to get weird of the obnoxious letterboxing) and the absence of an epilogue. If I’m working my ass off to save my favorite characters, I’d like that investment to feel rewarded by seeing them happy after the story, but there is NONE of that. Combine that with the really abrupt and uneventful finale and the ending leaves players feeling wanting more, but not in a good way.

At the end of the day, though, you’re probably looking at this game for its story and it characters, and it delivers on that front, minor issues be damned.
