The game has many interesting moments and is very unique in how it plays amongst today's games, almost playing like a novel. However, the end seems very rushed, giving the feeling of a total cop-out, with almost the entire plot being open to interpretation and no definitive closure actually being given. Towards the end (which I didn't realise it would be at the time) I was very hopeful for more plot to unveil, but then suddenly finished the game and was left with more questions (in a negative way, not positive) than a sense of completion.

Philosophically and visually, this game is very enjoyable but the let down of the seemingly rushed plot towards the end means that this game isn't worth the price tag in my opinion. I believe more depth on each character's actions and their turn of events would be required to make this game truly great, and it could've easily been one of the most unique and thought-provoking games of today if more tangible events had been included.

Pros:
- Stunning graphics that will have you stopping quite often simply to take in the scenery.
- Excellent take on story telling; very unique and novel-like.
- Audio is generally very captivating.
- Very immersive, could be a perfect game for oculus rift.

Cons:
- Plot can be very 'patchy' with a lack of definitive information.
- Late-game seems very very rushed with a lack of build up and leading between events.
- End game feels like a cop-out in comparison to the rest of the game; it just suddenly finishes.
- Voice acting can be sub par as well as character models.
- Graphical glitches and slight performance issues can affect immersion negatively.
- No allowance of quicksaving could be detrimental to individuals' freedom of progression.
- Short play time (4/5 hours) is only made a problem by the strange, uneven pacing.

Generally I would recommend this game, however be warned that although it seems very well made at first, the lack of developer experience (in this rare genre of game) pokes through once you've completed the game and look back on your experience. If there is a sequel or expansion planned then this would be more understandable but this shouldn't have to be the case either way.

A score of 70/100 would almost be generous, but will be given simply because the generally enjoyable aspects of the game can outweigh the many annoyances scattered throughout the story.
