Replay Value?

[Bλycosinus]

I heard about openworld - discovery mode but i'm not sure about it. Would you tell me about this game? What can a player do in this game after finishing the base scenario (if there's one)?

I love low poly games focused on landscapes so i'd like to get it but i'm low on budget atm so there should be a really good reason for me to not wait until the next sale.

Is there some kind of campfire style experience in this game? I honestly don't know much about it.

You could traverse the open world after you're done with the main narrative in a seperate mode but I can only see that being fun for a couple more hrs (at least that's the way it was for me), so I'd say the most you could get out of the game is 6-8 hrs. I personally don't judge games by the amount of hrs I get from them, but if you feel that said play time warrants the price then I really recommend that you try the game

No, actually i care about narrative experience MORE than replay value, but since this game and The Long Dark looks so similar in base, i was expecting a mode to walk around and maybe hunt somethings down... i dont know.

There is no hunting or anything of the sort in firewatch, just walking and climbing

Well i just got it and finished it 5 mins ago. It was damn worth it. But sure, more content would be fine!

[Bassam]

Glad you've gave it a shot and enjoyed it! While I definitely would've loved to play that game a bit more, I'm not quite sure what they could've added to it to be honest

I have some games that i played more than 200 hours. And none of them hat the impact that Firewatch did on me.

If this game is a pile of ♥♥♥♥, it's a great pile of ♥♥♥♥.

Do you know i'm the OP of this post, right? First i asked to know if this game worth it, i bought it and it was really worh it.

A game doesnt need replayability to be a legend. The Stanley Parable has no replayability (after 19 different ending which takes around 3-4 hours) but it's one of the most beautiful games on Steam. Portal 1 has almost no replayability but it's most rated game on Steam (with 98%+ positive reviews). Kholat has no replayability at all, but it's an amazing game.

Do you keep watching the same movie after liking one? Or just letting it go for some time until you want to experience it again?

This is the same. I don't get paid or i didn't get a free copy.

Some games are not just fun toys you can go ahead and play whenever you bored. Some games gives you the feeling of an interactive movie. Fix your perspective on games, and stop blaming people for not thinking the way you think and saying they're getting paid and ♥♥♥♥. That's childish.

Then why did you play for 5 hours and quit? If this game was good, you would be well on your way to putting hundreds of hours in, but you aren't. In fact, you are lying. My question is, how much do they pay you to post? Or do you just get a free copy in return for positive press?

There is zero replay value, sorry. It's mostly a linear walking simulator gameplay with little to no variety.

This game is story-orianted and the only gameplay are walking, take photos and interact with few things.
