"This is hopeless."

In the grand scheme of things, isn't all that often that I play a game that I actively really dislike, and it's even more infrequent that I play a game that I actively hate - sadly, Observer: System Redux is one of those few.

I've had this one sitting on my shelf for a couple of years, always meaning to get round to it, and I thought that now would be a perfect time - a short horror game to fit in right before the Halloween season ends. Unfortunately, though, it just didn't resonate with me on any level, and an hour in I couldn't wait for it to end.

The premise seemed interesting initially, but the story quickly became completely uninteresting to me with its pretentious and tiring execution and boring characters, and I found the exhausting, laborious game-play to be a true chore.

There isn't all that much I have to say about this one beyond the fact that I just didn't like it at all, though, and I'm glad to have finished it so quickly!
