This might seem heretical, but nothing about this game really grabbed or captivated me. I’ve been plunking through it on and off for about six months now, and the best I can muster is a distant appreciation for its craft and aesthetics. Everything else—the combat, mechanics, narrative, level design—didn’t really click with me. I kept waiting for something—ANYTHING—to make me stand up and take notice of what so many have described as one of the greatest games of all time — but it never happened. And now that it’s leaving the Playstation Plus network, I guess it’s time to call it quits and move on. Oh well. Different strokes, etc.
