I fired this up again last night, and I’m picking it up what it’s laying down for the most part, but boy oh boy is it an awful lot of walking around. That’s why I usually end up drifting away from this kind of game. The core “gameplay” of “moving from one place to another” is just…not interesting.
Edit: as for the first game, I’m still tempted to play it by videos like the one you posted, Giles, but oh my godddddd the Changeling’s voice acting. Aside from her delivery, which is bad, why does she talk like she took an entire bottle of Nyquil? No human has ever spoken at that speed.
