I feel like that game literally changed my life in the 2 hours or whatever it took me to play it.

That game is so beautiful. It made me a better person.

I was absolutely entranced.

    I had a similar experience. Funnily enough I love walking simulators, or slow burns with similar mechanics so I was exactly in the target audience for this game but somehow it didn’t click with me. I can understand which elements make the game great, but these elements have been done better by other games (in my opinion). I have great respect for the craft though.

      I’m combing through these comments, which games have done this better?

      I am definitely interested.

        With the emphasis that they have done certain elements better: Brothers: A Tale of two sons (Show, Don’t Tell) , Dark Souls (silent companion), Shadow of the Colossus (feeling of isolation/scale). I might add some more if I find the time.

          Oh I definitely prefer the show Don’t tell in journey more, if I’m understanding that category. And I did love Brothers.

          I didn’t have a silent companion, but comparing by how many people have told me about the silent companions of this game versus a huge thread about dark souls and elden ring I had recently and nobody mentioning a silent companion, I’m going to grain of salt that one.

          Are the silent companions in dark souls like elden ring where you summon friends to help you fight?

          I do want to play Shadow of the Colossus, but that game kind of beats everyone in terms of scale right?

          Isolation? Hm. Interesting.

          I really should play shadow of the Colossus.

          Is that still Playstation exclusive or is it anywhere else yet?
