As someone who usually enjoys walking sims, Fort Solis is a slog to get through. This is mainly due to the fact that this game's walk cycle is the speed of an old man fumbling his way to get some Ensure out of the fridge. Even if the walk cycle wasn't this slow, this game is a compilation of elements done far better by the games that inspired them. The horror of Dead Space's madness, the piecing together of Gone Home's story, The companionship through Firewatch's dialogue, and... pretty much any Quantic Dream game's quick time events. All interesting elements watered down in the hands of people who didn't quite yet have the skill to unlock their potential. Still playable and somewhat intriguing, but hard to recommend to most people. At least the acting's good I suppose
