What players say
Graphics is more than just acceptable. Design of the station & story is pretty good and enthralling. The game is basically for free. No bugs, not freezes, no drops to OS. Best spent money in past 10 years, for sure.
For a game at this price, It was amazing! Really liked it. That said, it needs a bit of polish: 1. Lost sound midway so probably a sound bug that needs a fix. 2. Requires smooth movements maybe just a little bit. Rest all was amazing and good voice acting as well.
I'm so confused why this game is so well liked. There is basically no story. When it ended my only feeling was "that's it?". There are so many plot questions that end unanswered. I literally checked to see if I somehow missed an entire section of the game because I was so confused on how that could be considered a completed game. For the entire time I played I kept waiting for it to pick up. I thought the ending...
