Should You Play It?
Worth It If...
- ✓ You can finish this in a week of normal play (11.4h main story) without it eating your whole month.
- ✓ There's a solid chunk of extra content beyond the credits if you want more (15.3h with extras, 18.9h to 100%).
- ✓ You like being made to think, not just react.
- ✓ You want your choices and character build to matter over dozens of hours.
Skip It If...
- ✗ You want fast-paced action. This asks you to slow down and solve, not react.
- ✗ You'd rather see the credits roll in one sitting. RPGs ask for real investment before the story pays off.
