Note to self:
"Playing" are games I am playing currently, "Backlogged" are games that I own and am not playing at the moment, but intend to finish at some point. I may have played some of said games before, but did not complete them.

Games I mark as "played" are games I finished to completion, but in the case where the game doesn't necessarily have an "end" (a fighting game, for example), I still mark the game as played if I have played it several times.

I have a difficult time actually finishing games, shown through how many games are labeled as backlogged. Most of the backlogged games are games I started, but never finished and probably have not played in a good amount of time. I am hoping to get better at finishing games because of this website.

I think that this game gets worse as it goes on but I cannot exactly put my finger on why at the moment. However, it is not bad to the point where I would say I dislike it, just that I don't think it reached its full potential.

Although the dialogue is corny, I still think it had its charms. There were a few characters I genuinely liked (Dylan, Kaitlyn, Laura), and then there are characters I hated or could not bring myself to even care about (Jacob, Emma, Nick, Abby).

I feel neutrally about Ryan, but I absolutely hated how the game made it seem like Ryan and Dylan's relationship would lead somewhere (if you choose to do so), but it actually leads to absolutely nothing. Ryan just falls for Laura the second he meets her and that's all other characters talk about? Even though Laura's main motivation is saving the boyfriend she already has? Alright.

The ending being just a slideshow was also disappointing and incredibly anticlimactic.

I am also (perhaps irrationally) angry about how the werewolves don't look anything like werewolves. The fur is barely visible, what the hell? They just look like weird naked people. Make them hairy, goddammit! There is no "wolf" aspect to them and could be subbed in with any other type of creature.

I honestly really enjoyed this, which I did not expect because when I first heard about the game, I thought Alex's power didn't seem like it could make for an interesting story. However, this game took me by surprise. I found all the characters to be likeable, especially Alex, and the story and characters were interesting enough for me to keep going even if the overarching plot was not necessarily unique, persay. I just quite liked it and I am looking forward to replaying some parts of it.

Pretty fun overall, although it gets a bit repetitive.
