Paul Houchin

An absolute masterpiece. If you're closed off to seeing things from an opposing perspective, uncomfortable with complex narratives, or maybe just a bigot, this might not be for you. Few games challenge your perception of the protagonist's actions like this one. The story is visceral and often hard to digest, yet deeply human. Every decision made by the characters feels authentic, even when you'd prefer them to choose differently. The destructive cycle of violence and revenge is front and center in this one and it hits hard, like a punch to the gut, but it's executed with remarkable precision.
