A fantastic arthouse film experience made for a crowd that will not, or ever, appreciate something as bold and slow burning as this.
Jeanne Dielman energy.
As a gamer I was upset at all of the empty space. But as a fan of arthouse films I've never seen anything like this.
Even though there was alot of empty space (which can and should be fast forwarded through), subtle face expressions can reveal alot of information. It was interesting connecting the dots between responses and I found it more satisfying than "her story" honestly. It felt more believable and personal. There is a great amount of variety when it comes to the scenes displayed. Intense moments, genuinely heartbreaking bonds, twists, an array of different personalities, and even uncomfortable intimacy. When you find an important scene it definitely feels important and revealing. Then you are left beating your head when one that didn't seem important had crucial information because of your own sheer impatience.
The performances were surprisingly top notch. What's more impressive are the very long takes. Long takes like this require alot of focus/planning. Even the little girl was doing great.
This kind of storytelling is very special, and can only be done through gaming. In my opinion it's better than "Her Story" and i cant wait to check out "Immortality". Chronologically, this is "Memento" on drugs and I applaud the audacity.

Absolutely legendary game for me. Everything has purpose even down to the design of the city itself. Immersing the player by purposefully restricting them.
Every plasmid is useful, every turret is useful, upgrades, exploration, even audio diaries. And in the end, it's a 4th wall breaking love letter between the player and developers.

Surprisingly enjoyed this. I wish it had better ways to arrange the videos. My only issue with the story is that what it's implying is very unbelievable. I feel like my personal theory that has less evidence is actually more probable. Very interested in his other games now.
