The Descendant: Episodes
anyone playing this, anyone has any kinda of impression about it?
i watched those first 10 mins of the game (besides other videos) and i was so intrigued by; direct control similar the new KQ, graphics and animation similar to ttg, more on puzzling/tasking side, a dystopian story about (relatively) present and future for two characters you play at those two different times.
I am downloading, gonna add my impressions soon.
I’m prejudiced against any game that requires me to tap E repeatedly, so I’m not going to pass an opinion on the game as a whole. But their claim of “investigative gameplay, challenging puzzles, tense action sequences” annoys me. The first episode is less than one hour of gameplay, and the most challenging puzzle is finding the hotspots.
Thx lancelot, you seem to have summed it up, really.
there are no puzzles here, this is just like another ttg adventure game, and what is even worse are the controls; open world without direct control, and using the mouse to direct the avatar towards hotspots is somehow too awkward!
ok, the game has some puzzles to let it pass under the genre, but on the casual or very easy side.
It’s okay… just okay. I liked the suspense and atmosphere and even some of the puzzles (which were easy), however the storytelling was very clunky and needed much more clarity. By the end I had little idea who was who and what was what.
