First two games are much better storywise. New Frontier had its shocking moments but I felt that choices were irrelvant, there weren't much crucial or shocking choices in the game. I also didn't like the forced romance between Kate and Javi and no matter how much you reject her, the game still forces them to try to be together. The family drama was okay, but sometimes overplayed, I guess I just wanted the game to focus on the survival. Finally, there wasn't much character development to certain characters like Elenor, Tripp, Conrad, Jesus, Ava. Tripp and Jesus were the only characters that were interesting too me especially Jesus, he has this mystery to him.

Overall, I felt the game to be okay, little sad that Clementine didn't play a bigger role, but enough to leave me content.
3/5

SO GOOD IT HURTS!
no complaints.
Outsider's voice is different but not enough to complain about it.
The play is smooth and consistent.
Not much difference with switching to different characters. Mostly dialogue is different.
What characters say to either corvo or emily is only slightly different.
I like how we can make our own bone charms this time. it's cool.
Emily's powers are OP, but still awesome so no complaints.
all in all AWESOME AS ALWAYS!

so far, I feel I like the game is very similar to crime and punishments, the game mechanics are still similar (focus. action sequence, profiling characters, mini puzzles). The only thing different is the look of the characters, the voice, more action, and a predictable story.

I guess making characters younger and more appealing is the standard nowadays. It's a little eerie seeing watson look so much like dorian from dragon age, it's creepy and strange because i feel like its the same voice actor......

so far I enjoyed the cases and i think it get's progressively harder trying to figure out the motive of each character such as orson wilde in the third case. I also have this feeling that there are way more mini puzzles than im use to. But i can let that slide.

The only thing I couldn't stand was the little girl(katlyn) and the typical lady next door (alice). Right away I could tell something sinister was going on with the lady and her motives. And from the looks of the trailer she might be that bloody witch that will steal your daughter. And what do you know you will find a major secret once you pry deeper into her life when she starts getting "close" to alice. Even the way the little girl laughs is a bit too much and I find it grossly annoying and even as you constantly tell the little tyke "NO" she doesn't back down which makes you even more frustrated.

Eh. but getting to the point I thought the story was predictable in a way with predictable characters, cases are good, but I haven't been entranced yet. so far 6.5/10

Few minutes into the game and could not go on.
So far it was just running around using glow sticks, runnning around use flare gun, runnning around, etc
The game was not scary nor interesting.
The story, I think, was lacking as well.

Overall, just boring!!

all i can say is that compared to most adventure games it was boring as hell.

the artwork is meh.
but the game is addicting.
if you lose you try again, if you dont get a perfect you try again, even if your done you try again, etc.
thats how addicting this game could be.
not bad in price, but if on sale should definitely get to wash away the boredom.

its okay.
gets repetitve using the mako to go around and explore over and over again.
controls for combat are slightly different from the second and third game (which i think is better).
as always characters are awesome in the game.
graphics are kinda crappy.
but overall good game.
