“A textbook exemple of the story clashing with the gameplay. To get the good ending, you have to throw away more than half of the game content, especially on harder difficulty.”
“In the nicest words I can find, this is a boring, subpar game. I only bought it because it was on sale. I would NOT recommend anyone purchase this.”
