Gone Home

Gone Home

Vezi statistici:
Too short for the price.
Based on MY experience;

I finished it in 2 hours completely. No puzzles, nothing excited, little to none story line. Even though I bought it in discount (thank god for that) in my opinion it did not even worth 5 Euro I spent on it. I could respect it more if it was longer & cheaper. I love & support indie games, but not this time.

I would listen to a song over and over again on repeat if it was good, regardless of its length. At least for me, the same applies to video games. I choose quality over quantity, and while the game is exceptionally short in comparison to other games in its price range, it truly connected with and moved me. Experiences like those found in Gone Home and Journey hold far more significance to me than the numerical analysis of minutes per dollar.

It's your own prerogative whether you support something or not, and I respectfully acknowledge that.

Edit: Actually, come to think of it, you technically did support Fullbright by purchasing their game, and I don't think a refund would be possible.

Lol, no problem there. I bought it, I played it, I didn't like it. Not like I expect refund ofc ^^ And I would keep buying their games if I like the general idea of the game, just THIS ONE did not worth my money I think. Well, every game is an experience. I am an avid gamer, will keep trying my luck with other indie games. I found gems before like Papers, Please and Chime for example. Indie games rules.
Yeah, I really like the variety in indie games. Right now, Papers, Please is -50% and there's a chance that it will go down to around -75% or maybe even lower, but I'm compelled enough to want to play it because it looks fresh and innovative.

So, I purchased it at -50% today, and won't be upset at all even if it goes down to -99% because I can say that I supported an interesting idea. I completely agree, indie games rule.

I bought it in full price and I don't regret the single cent of it. Gotta support indie games, developers work hard ^^
maybe, but time is not everything...
Finished in 2 hours? I took five. Did you not read all the notes

I did and read everything in two hours. It's completely do-able.
I can't help but assume there to be some caveat to that, such as that not being your first play-through, rushing through the game, et cetera. In my first play-through, I obviously wasn't familiar with where everything was at in the least, and it took my around five hours to complete.

I can only imagine someone speeding through the game with the main goal being to reach the end and not veritably take in everything -- more than the typography -- that had to be offered, crudely glossing over. That's something I'd like to see for my own discretion, if true, and if true indeed in every sense, well, I'm really impressed!

It's not like there are THAT many things to read, and since there aren't any puzzles involved and once you learn to ignore every can and bottles and random items, you actually don't need to "speed" through the game to see everything, it's already speedy on its own.

Agreed
It's not a bad game... But I have no Idea why I should pay 23€ to play a game 100% in 2 hours... It was just too short. That's my only big problem with it. (Besides these sometimes creepy light bugs?)

For the Sale price I liked it but everything more than 10€ is not tollerate-abel.

PS: I played "The Stanley Parable" for 10 hours and for this one and invested a lot of time in the forum/community to solve all these mystery's (There are still unsolved one's), and for THAT you only have to pay 13€ (Or something like that, I bought it on it's release so it was a bit cheaper).

Sorry for my bad English btw, I'm a bit sick right now.
