Best main story in a video game that I've played in a long time.

Beautiful (even on base PS4) and creative world design

Played on a Pro and 4K/HDR display. This game sold me on HDR. Still didn't make it feel meaningful.

How so? It was great story telling that I got more invested in as it unfolded.

Idk really.

It felt like a chore to visit site to site. Along with the story feeling broken. By the time I hit a milestone I already forgot and lost interest.

Next are the characters. I feel nothing for any of those characters. Good stories have good characters. You never really remember the story but the characters in the story. So this makes it extremely forgettable.

The game was solid being a "game". Extremely well done. Just nothing there for me. It was all "blah".

Question though.

Why didn't the Apollo door's open? I thought they would learn in Apollo as teens before being released. When everything happen they looked like highschool seniors.

It fumbled at points, but there were several unforgettable moments for me. Won't go into it in this thread, but there were several very memorable scenes at the end.

I absolutely loved the discovery of the source of the metal flowers.

Don't want to spoil it, but it's the scene Alloy discovers at the end.

Oh yeah.

Maybe if I cared more for her it would be cool. Was sort of ready for the game to be over at that point.
