I want to start this off by saying I enjoyed the game but as many other reviews have pointed out it left you wishing there was just a bit more. It’s a pretty game with likable characters and some nice dialogue options but it’s hollow and leads you to believe your choices will have more of an impact than they really do. Spoilers ahead but Of all the scenes that should have had an impact on the ending the scene where you confront the council towards the end did nothing as the outcome is the same regardless Jed confesses and you just move on as if he didn’t almost kill you. With that out of the way I did enjoy the game despite being disappointed with the ending and do think it has some merit in terms of how it handles grief and showcasing that not everyone processing grief the same way. Do I wish there was a bit more to the story and that your choices had more of an impact? Yes. Do I think it’s a bad game? No. It’s descent and worth playing through once but as many others have stated if you can get it on sale do it. I’m fortunate enough to have been able to borrow it from my local library otherwise I think I would probably have been more disappointed.
