I really feel like I should hate this for its frequent, sometimes long and always self-indulgent cutscenes that tell the most batshit plot I've ever seen, as well as for its slow and repetitive gameplay, but there's something so charming about it that kept me hooked till the end. Exploring the snowy landscapes, hunting animals and blasting away at The Thing-lookin' ass monsters in surprisingly functional combat sequences all has sort of a relaxing quality, and the characters are actually pretty interesting despite their places in whatever the fuck this story's supposed to be. I'm not sure if I'd ever play it again, but I'm glad I finally gave it at least one go.
