Have to admit, had no idea you could rate video games here too. Thought it was more or rather just about movies. This game was something that was really something that was along what I like to play and what I like to see. At least story wise that is true. There is enough madness and darkness here too. The story is quite interesting with Cthullu and other things. So if you are interested in those things ... you'll find a lot you will like here too.
So when it comes to the story aspect, I'd give it even higher notes or ratings. But the game has issues with controls and the action parts of it. At least that's how I would describe it and you may disagree with me. Add to that the fact that there are about3-5 templates when it comes to buildings - so you got those blueprints and every other house looks the same, just has other interior design to it. Sometimes a floor or two are cut off - the access to them are removed. But overall you will start thinking "haven't I been here before?" - even when you clearly haven't.
Not that can be viewed as a story tool - or seen as part of the mysticism. But it is just one of the things that might take away all the fun you can have while playing this. The detective aspect of the story might other entice you or bore you. I loved it, even if certain things could have been made easier (on the map, placing of clues and so forth ... it's different, with good and bad things combined).
So interesting overall with mad moral choices and even worse Trophies attached to some of those decisions - although mostly there are no real story changes. You can decide however you feel "best" - same goes for deciding which of the 3 endings you prefer ... none are being taken away, no matter what you do during the game ...
