I'm not sure why this game is listed here on Backloggd and on HowLongToBeat. Fading Memory, in its current state, is a demo. And a pretty short one at that. It definitely has some interesting ideas, and the tone shift from the original game is apparent, but the demo doesn't do enough to sell me on a full experience. Not sure if the dev is planning to release more demos, but I'll probably wait until when/if the game is completely done to try this again.

not sure how many updates have occurred since i played it when it was first given public release but it was pretty buggy. i closed the game after a crash, since when i reloaded i was in a completely different room. as a result i killed niko due to closing the game (like in the freeware version of the original game) even though i asked one of the devs if using bed checkpoints has any advantage and they said "not really," and said checkpoints didn't work at all throughout my playthrough even though i was basically at the end of the mod.

adding to the fact that i needed the base game to be in a very specific condition to allow me to even play the mod, kinda just left me with a bad taste in my mouth.
