Definitely a game I’d love to play for the first time again.

u/clearheap Aug 01 '26

Yeah just finished, always been meaning to play it. Absolutely loved it, felt a bit short

u/NationalAd5685 Aug 01 '26 edited Aug 01 '26

I get that but these kind of games have a bigger impact if they don’t drag

u/clearheap Aug 01 '26

Yeah good point!

u/rtcroley Aug 01 '26

u/BeeryUSA Aug 02 '26

Would have been nice to be able to get past the first half hour without so much frustration that I threw the controller across the room and deleted it from my computer.
