The way the story is told in this game is absolutely amazing! It's a walking sim of course, but it's not simply walk, find object, study, walk, find again, and so on. Instead it gives an amazing sense of exploring the story with narration running throughout, piecing together the history of the family and their home, observing places and objects as you pass them to add to the narrative. There are a number of moments throughout the story where you "relive" moments of subject characters, and the whole thing is woven together seamlessly.

The settings and scenes are gorgeous and well-crafted, and really immerse you in the story. It has a rich vibrancy through the whole environment.

The story itself is intriguing and beautiful, and without ruining it, it also has such a bittersweet edge to it that really tugs on the heartstrings! It's very well-written and definitely draws you in - I ended up playing the whole thing in a single sitting. It's not overly long, but thoroughly enjoyable and definitely one to experience!

So unstable, and still not what was promised.

F2P but your restricted in various ways without premium in a very heavy-handed approach. Instead of perks with premium, you observe restrictions without it. Portions of XP and gains after each match are removed and locked in a premium locker, rather than being given an XP boost if you had premium. Some classes locked without premium. Simple psychology - people respond better to the idea of gain with premium service than penalty without it. You're just creating a P2W situation anyway.

It's reasonably fun when you actually get into it, but I have come up against more errors than games so far and that's just not good enough.

Fix the damn servers ffs or just give up. Even as F2P, this is not enjoyable in any way when you spend most of your time cycling through "Unexpected Error" dialogue boxes. First time I started the game up, the servers were down. The second time, it connected and I created an account, but it didn't even correctly transition to the character creation screen from there and I had to hard close the game and restart it to get the game to correctly load the character selection screen.

Very unreliable game, clearly not stable or thoroughly tested, and seemingly a regression from the demo game at Comic Con last year - disappointing what is happening here and to the franchise as a whole.
