I've been wanting to play this game for years and it did not disappoint. The gameplay was incredibly addictive, having so many different options and incredible attention to detail. It makes this game very hard to put down. And the story while it does have its issues, is thematically one of the most relevant stories I've seen. There are parts of this game that make it feel like this could've come out recently, which for a 20 year old game is mind blowing. Although the game’s age can clearly be seen with its controls, which were very difficult for me and made for a lot of frustrating moments (especially the boss fights). I did have some issues that slightly brought the game down for me. But by the time I witnessed that conclusion, I left feeling completely satisfied. The last hour of this game was exciting, shocking, and incredibly moving. Even having it partially spoiled, it was an emotional rollercoaster that I'm going to be thinking about for a while. I'm so glad that I finally got to experience this.
