Should You Play It?
Worth It If...
- ✓ You've got a few solid weeks to give it (20.7h main story), long enough to sink in, short enough to actually finish.
- ✓ There's a solid chunk of extra content beyond the credits if you want more (24.5h with extras, 34.6h 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.
