Full disclosure, I turned on invincibility mode maybe 1/3 through because I was really interested in the story but not enjoying the combat very much. The combat seems good, just not for me.
I love so much of what this game is doing which makes the let down harsher. The setting and background are intriguing, but the story built on top of it is flat and doesn't have an ending. The collectible memos are fun though I kept getting distracted by how nonsensical the censorship was.
What I will remember this game forever for is the visual style. I think this is the first Remedy game I've played but from what I understand the FMV incorporation is something of a signature for the studio. I love that. There was an FMV musical moment towards the end that almost got me fully in love with this game until, again, no ending for the story. That style is something I definitely want to see more of.
