Dont get me wrong, the developers of "Everybody's Gone to the Rapture", the chinese room, they sure know how to make an incredibly pretty game full of scenic vistas, cluttered abandonment and haunting locales. Its all stunning. They probably also know how to make a decent tale too but they cant seem to grasp the idea of making their game... well... a game? Everything is just so slow and drawn out to the point where it just takes an age to glimpse even the smallest of plotpoints. Its just not fun.

Dont get me wrong, visual storytelling is fine but there comes a point where you feel their talent may have been better placed in independent filmmaking vs games.
