This game is very fun.
I've seen so many playthroughs and knew exactly what was going to happen, but playing it for the first time (and leaving the decision making up to my girlfriend who had fresh eyes) enhanced the whole experience. The characters are annoying and do stupid things (like continuing to split up constantly), most of the gameplay is either walking around looking at the ground very slowly or doing QTEs, and the second half drags. But it is fun. Those QTEs genuinely made me sweat and felt high stakes, unlike any other game's QTEs. Every choice felt consequential and it never felt like there was a clear right answer. The Butterfly Effect system is so good too, that's something I could only appreciate actually playing it myself. So many times I'd do something that felt wrong, see that butterfly appear and then know I'd completely fucked something lol.
Funny looking uncanny valley character models but still looks amazing to me. Phenomenal shadows. Not sure how far this game needs any kind of remake but hey ho.
