Impulse buy.
Only played for 30mins but looks like it will/should be enjoyable.

Anyone got this?

[keasy]

Don't fancy it much tbh m8.

[corroded]

I was quite tempted by it, then I was told it had a few issues.... still in two mins about it.

The trailer for it is amazing.

[Wooster]

Aye, best trailer I've ever seen.  

Poignant I think is the word...

[keasy]

Not for me.

Perfectly executed and amazingly choreographed set piece video...but I wouldn't watch a movie with a little kid being fooked over like that, let alone immersed role playing video gaming, I'm to soft to enjoy that as a form of entertainment.

It's a testament to the script writers skills that they actually manage to tug at the heart strings so well...but that kind of thing is beyond my emotional strengths tbh. I'm a total pussy at the best times without willingly participating in a virtual enactment of something that makes me feel sad.

[Wooster]

Aye, I was thinking it's a fine line using the image of a kid myself, but something just clicked.

It's isn't gratuitous, what's just clicked is that I think her mother is the main character in the game.


...doesn't make me feel any less sad when I watch it though.

It's quite funny, but NSFW/K.

Spent an hour honing the pc version to what I want - the config tool is ace   But now up and running how I want it, I think its pretty damn good and far less of a disappointment than Deus Ex was for me.  Great solid fun so far

Techland just need to keep polishing and fixing it - but in the meantime thankfully with the mod/config tool, at least the community have brought it to a solid state.  Had I bought it at launch before the tool was available then I'd be having to play this with a controller...
