Should You Play It?
Worth It If...
- ✓ You can finish this in a week of normal play (7.1h main story) without it eating your whole month.
- ✓ You like squeezing every drop out of a game, there's a deep completionist path here (7.1h main vs 25.1h to fully clear).
- ✓ You like systems you can tinker with and optimize at your own pace.
- ✓ You want pick-up-and-play sessions, not a big narrative commitment.
Skip It If...
- ✗ You want a tight, authored story. This is open-ended by design, not scripted.
- ✗ You want a deep story or long campaign. This is built for short bursts, not marathon sessions.
