What players say
Gameplay isnt that good, characters and story as well. What makes these games special are the direction and cinematography and everything surrounding the in game world. P.S Maybe watch .hack roots. or not
The gameplay and pacing are quite dated by now, but the aesthetics and sincerity shine through. The fake forum posts are awesome and make me nostalgic for a bygone era. Long live Blue Eyed Samurai
Just reinstalled and was so excited to hop back in. Turns out Steam doesn't support cloud saves on this game and my progress was entirely lost. Its a beautiful and fun game, but keep a backup of your save to avoid the frustration I'm feeling.
