The game got a lot of hate online, but I’ve generally found when a game is hated on, there’s usually something more. So I decided to actually play the game. I’m 5 hours in
Honestly I like it, for telltale like walking simulator, it sets up the story pretty well, it has some nice sci-fi beats. It’s good for what it is. It isn’t anything it promises not to be. I think it’s a good game, I’d recommend waiting until it goes on sale for $10 maybe. At that price point it’s about the cost of a movie and That’s where I put it in terms of value pricing.
Thank you. I feel like people are hating on it for just being ‘woke’. But, the story and characters seem pretty good to me. I seriously love the comic book art style. It’s not perfect, but it doesn’t need to be.
I understand why people can be upset with new entries to existing properties that don’t fit into the existing property. Where things feel like their wrenched and forced.
Dustbourne is a totally new property, it all fits together, the fact that some people are a little bit weird is just part of the story. It’s very cyberpunk in the desert on a road trip.
Quite frankly, people hating on it is probably good for it, it brings more attention to extremely small and niche project. The absolute worst thing people involved in ideological wars could do is not talk about an entertainment property, silence is death in the entertainment landscape.
