Some great ideas realised fully and some great ideas that don't quite land, but a game full of great ideas nonetheless. A game that requires you to meet it on its own terms and it won't surprise me to find out that a lot of people simply can't do that - hell, I bounced off it hard upon its original release and only just got around to pushing through to the end of it.

If you can, you'll find a game that manages to feel truly unique due to the way it forces you to accept consequence and make concrete choices or by the way you can try to circumnavigate these to get your desired outcome. Just be prepared for a bit of a slog during the first half of the adventure whilst you get a true foothold in the world.

Also - that is SOME final act, isn't it?
