Hmm... I´m known for being strongly anti-Sokal so I will only post once in this thread, to sum up my opinions.
I have played 3 of his games (Syberias, Sinking Island), so I will focus on these.
Syberia(s) - Intriguing at first, but very soon I lost interest in the characters and their stories. Never finished first part (gave up about half way trough) and skipped to second. Maybe mostly because I have not finished the 1st part, I was completely lost and really didn´t care about
Spoiler:finding some mammoths
Plain and simple, not a game for me.
Sinking Island - Interesting premise (I really like murder mysteries) series game-play issues. Uninteresting main protagonist, shallow characters and extremly cliched story, too many empty locations and quite a bunch of backtracking (combined with need for food and
idiotic phonecalls) distracted and even annoyed me all the time. Although I finished the game, I disliked it very much.
I gave Mr. Sokal 2 chances, he didn´t take them (in my POV, of course), so I´ll pass on anything alse from White Birds.
