On the surface The Medium might sound like a good game, but it is not. It's extremely tedious, shallow and pretentious. If you enjoy non-existent gameplay, then you'll love it, because there's plenty of things to be picked up and interacted with.
The only redeeming quality I found was the sound design, but even that didn't save me from getting bored by running from one place to the other, very, very slowly.
What about the story you ask? Yes there is one. One that is uninteresting, predictable and full with one-dimensional characters. Not worth wasting your time, as it is as disappointing as the lack of any gameplay.
I honestly only played this through because it was on the Game Pass and would've refunded it before the two hour mark if I bought it by accident.
