far ahead of its time, forward thinking and important in many ways. also repetitive to a fault and horribly aged in others. this game just has some trippy quality about it that remains unmatched, and i think if a more modern game was able to successfully recreate the truly insane and trippy feeling of this one we would have a masterpiece, but nope. when this game goes crazy, and the textures are distorted and theres weird things to see aplenty, that is when it is unbeatable. a perfect blend of surreal and nightmarish. its just a shame that the repetitive environments really get old after a while, especially because LSD sometimes likes to go quite a while without making things weird and after playing for a certain number of days you feel like youve seen everything it has to offer. the soundtrack is really good and a precursor to the likes of yume nikki. despite its repetition and aged-ness, LSD is still worth a play for sure because of how insane and trippy it is, because of its importance, and because there is still nothing else quite like it. and theres not many games you could truly lump that cliche with but this is one of them.
