Changed my mind. And then I changed it back. There's really nothing like it. But I don't think I have the patience to actually succeed in terms of its very specific goals.

I wish it was more freeform.

Spent the last ten minutes after shutting the game down thinking about why this doesn't work for me when something like Inside very much does.

The puzzles? Maybe. Inside's in media res thing was also compelling, though Planet of Lana doesn't spend too much time before its inciting incident.

Man, I don't know. I guess there's not just 1 line between "this is alright" and "damn, alright". It's multiple lines, and identifying the threshold is murky at best.

Interesting, but not quite for me. Visual novels have an unfortunately high bar to clear for me to get engaged.

Fine? Maybe not so much into golf as I used to be. Or it's the game. Hard to say.

I had fun! Writing didn't hook me, though it wasn't uninteresting. Which is mostly why I've decided to stop after one ending. Maybe I'll come back someday, explore the stuff I missed. But maybe not.

Extremely polished presentation. And I think the way it gets to the point is admirable, and effective. But there's not enough to actually make me want to keep playing. Feels a little barren. Though on the flipside, given the setting, if it actually tried to say anything, well, that might not have been an improvement.

It's a slim margin. I have more nostalgia for 3, but I think the fundamental platforming in World is better. Levels are kinda hit and miss, just like 3, and the cape is more than a little silly.

Still a great game.

Had more fun with the WiiU follow-up. Can't pinpoint what it is, but this feels off somehow.

PC ports were good for a second there

shader compilation stutter is the bane of my existence. game seems alright otherwise

this is some of the most stilted writing I've seen in years

not that I was expecting much after the first game, but this shit is so bland and ineffectual that it's actively putting me off

for some reason this game also reminds me of when someone at Ubisoft said women are too difficult to animate

Didn't grab me. Shooting especially feels profoundly mediocre.

Cute! If you enjoy this type of gameplay, I could see this being an incredible experience.

But I don't, really.

hey, uh, Quake 2 maybe isn't so good? raytracing shit aside, these guns look and feel incredibly bad. I never played it back in the day, but... think I'll stick to Quake

Overwatch is fun, but everything surrounding it, including the matchmaking, is so actively repellant that I'm just no longer having a good time playing the game. So I'm gonna stop.
