Should You Play It?
Worth It If...
- ✓ You can finish this in a week of normal play (7.2h main story) without it eating your whole month.
- ✓ There's a solid chunk of extra content beyond the credits if you want more (8.9h with extras, 14.1h to 100%).
- ✓ You're playing for story and atmosphere first, mechanics second.
Skip It If...
- ✗ You want mechanically deep gameplay. This prioritizes narrative pacing over systems.
