the face mechanic even though repetitive and sometimes didnt really make sense is REALLY well made and unique, i do have some pacing problems with this game tho, homicide you have a banger case and then you get into vice and dont have the will to keep playing. I think the most important thing this game is missing is a good overall narrative outside all the cases, if you are going to make a 'episodic' crime type of game you need to have a mystery outside all the cases to make it worthwhile, good experience tho
