First impressions

So I’ve put in about half an hour (after about the same amount of time getting high-res graphics to work), and I’m not sure what I think yet.
The graphics and presentation are definitely impressive. It’s actually kind of surreal to see something so slick and movie-like (including the likes of Christopher Lloyd) in high-definition in DOS.

Buuut… I dunno. It isn’t grabbing me yet.
It feels so far like one of those products where every creative decision started with the question “what are consumers going to like?” rather than “is this good?” or even better “would *I* enjoy this?”

But that’s just my initial impression. I’ll give it a bit longer before I settle on my opinion.

Am I imagining it? Does the game hook you in later? Or is the first 30 minutes a good indication of the rest of the game?

It has been many years since I played it last and I must admit the start is way slower than I remember. So many conversations to get through in the Cutopia.

My recollection is that it gets more fun when you get out of town, collect alot of items and can tackle puzzles in whichever order you feel like. Guess we’ll see if I change my mind 😛

I started playing this on stream today and someone in the chat described the game as “exhausting” which I think is pretty apt hahah

I’m not disliking it though!
