Should You Play It?
Worth It If...
- ✓ You've got a few solid weeks to give it (23.2h main story), long enough to sink in, short enough to actually finish.
- ✓ You like squeezing every drop out of a game, there's a deep completionist path here (23.2h main vs 114.6h to fully clear).
- ✓ You want fast, skill-based sessions you can play in short bursts.
- ✓ You like systems you can tinker with and optimize at your own pace.
Skip It If...
- ✗ You want story and character. This is about the track, not the plot.
- ✗ You want a tight, authored story. This is open-ended by design, not scripted.
