    It's not the kinda game you would expect to be playing in 2019. But that's not a bad thing. I enjoyed it greatly.

    Not a game for everyone

    I definitely recommend this edition over the collectors. The collectors doesn't add anything worth collecting, I'd say. As for the game itself, it is a lot of walking. If you have some podcasts to sit through then it is great. Little to no engaging gameplay loop and the story can get very silly and self serving at times.

    Pros: Absolutely beautiful, the storyline is great, it plays like a movie. Cons: It seems all you do is run/walk from point a to point b delivering stuff, carrying a crying baby. Also, the font on the inventory screen is so small I had to sit three feet from the TV screen and still couldn't see what I was doing. Very frustrating.
