I posted in another forum about this. The game is phenomenal for what it is. It has its flaws, sure, but it's a great game.
I purchased the complete edition with DLC on the PS Store, can care less having a physical copy. I don’t really notice what I got as far as the DLC goes, I’ll have to look into that more.
As for the game, if you’re a fan of the Twin Peaks series, you’ll love this. The entire game has this creepy/odd vibe to it. From the hotel you stay at, to the character interactions, to the main story of your character trying to solve a murder that unravels during the games intro.
The game is open world, you can drive anywhere you want but be careful because you run out of gas. You have a map but it’s extremely hard to use for the fact that you can only zoom out so far. Once you zoom out and start moving around the map to see where you need to go, there’s no way to go back to where your character icon is. So yeah, the map portion is a bit of a mess but I still look pass it and deal with it.
Some cool things to look forward to. Each section of the game has your character go to a location and find clues and with those clues that you find, you profile the crime scene and start to put together in your head what happened at that location. That’s a fun aspect because you slowly have the story unfold at each location. Some twisted stuff!
One of the missions is that you call a town meeting. All the townsfolk arrive and you give a little talk and then afterwards you walk around the lodge and talk to the residents who you haven’t met yet. All of them are a suspect of course in your characters mind until you filter through them. But you get a little back story on what they do (run the diner, town musician, owner of a gas station, etc.) Awesome mission and uneventful, but it gives the game a great vibe.
If you have any questions, I’ll be glad to answer them. I’m probably not even halfway through the game yet but I’m having a blast playing it.
