That's exactly my sentiments as well.
Sadly, though, none of the adventures of the past few years (with the exception of the progressive and controversial
Indigo Prophecy,
Dreamfall, to some extent
Missing: Since January, and maybe
Still Life) have had that effect. Today I generally find the majority of recent and current adventure games pathetically dull, unimaginative, redundant, boring, stingy, and badly designed.
I'm literally praying that
Once Upon A Time In Japan: Earth and
Gray Matter turn out to be excellent.
