I am very mixed here. I found the writing and performances to be absolutely excellent. The atmosphere was incredible. There are strong gut wrenching moments and even though you can see the ending coming it hits you like a truck.

But the way this story was told was disappointing and there isn't much else going on to substitute that. Most events involve little more than just standing around blankly staring while the characters talk. When interaction is at play its so limited like its almost an after thought. The strongest example is during the car repair scene when the hitman is just staring at the engine. He never interacts with it but eventually just says it's all fixed. Moments like that just took me out.

It's a shame because there is a lot of little touches to appreciate. The hitman has a cold stare but a warm voice that feels very sincere. You can hear his footsteps right behind you as he follows you around the farm, but it still felt like you were walking with a friend. It's a balance between threatening and comforting.

I recommend you play it because that narrative is great. I just wish it had more going on besides that.
