when i finished chapter 1 i wrote a long ass vent post complaining about all the problems i had with it which was a lot. im glad to say theyve almost all been remedied in chapter 2, and then some. probably the strongest 7 i can think of since i played disco elysium. despite it being pretty constantly engaging im still not totally mentally on board with the witch/magic stuff and i do still kinda feel like its set up for a payoff later down the line since so many big and important questions were left on the table by the time the credits rolled, but that seems par for the course for something with a question arc and an answer arc lol
