Atmosphere, Cutscenes, Radio Conversations are top tier stuff for PS1 standards.

I also like the message that genes don't you back as a person and as someone who feels like this sometimes, that hits hard for me. Sometimes the only way to move on in your life is to deify your genes, whether they're good or bad.

That being said the gameplay feels mediocre, not terrible and probably good for PS1 standards but certainly hasn't aged well comparatively.

If this game had better gameplay it would be a 5/5 masterpiece.
