While it could get pretty entertaining when the misdirection actually misdirected me, I felt the trials were inconsistent. Some of them telegraphed too much too soon, and others were derailed by nonsensical character choices. The moment-to-moment writing also felt amateurish—particularly when the player character is verbalizing his thoughts—and I don't think the issue can be attributed solely to the localization. I liked the Nonstop Debate mechanic, but felt the other trial minigames added friction where none was needed. The rhythm one especially...what the hell is that supposed to add to the experience? Overall pretty disappointing
