Should You Play It?
Worth It If...
- ✓ This clears in a weekend (5h main story), pick it up without derailing anything else in your backlog.
- ✓ There's a solid chunk of extra content beyond the credits if you want more (5.9h with extras, 7h 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.
