DISCUSSION Still Wakes the Deep
Gave this game a try since it is free on PS+ right now and its very well reviewed, LOVE the vibe/atmosphere but the gameplay is realllllly boring, does it get any better in the 2nd half? Im just over 2 hours in which is about the halfway point since the game is 4-5 hours long and as much as I enjoy the story and setting the "gameplay" is pretty much walk in a straight line and follow the yellow paint. Even with the yellow paint turned to reduced (cant fully turn it off) its EVERYWHERE which feels extra unnecessary since the game is basically a straight line, could not get lost even if you wanted to. What did others think of this game? It feels more like a rollercoaster ride or interactive movie to me, and its been a cool ride so far but I am pretty surprised to see it so well received when theres really no gameplay or exploration at all you kind of just walk around while the story happens around you.
