I have no words for how much I love this game, but here's some anyways:

  • Every single character, no matter how minor, has heaps of personality.
  • The interior dialogue is clever as hell, and blows every other interior narrator out of the water. Breaking the personality into 24 different entities actually gives you the sense of being a conflicted person, which I have yet to see matched in any other game.
  • All the dialogue is incredibly sharp, and the interplay between The Detective and Kim is always rewarding.
  • The political aspect of the game is the most solid of any game I've ever played; regardless of what political side you take, it's always perfectly nuanced.
  • Skill checks are always rewarding, even when you fail.
  • You have immense freedom to be any sort of detective you want. Brute force your way through anything? Sure. Sherlock-type know-it-all? You got it. A detective thats solely guided by amphetamines and intuition? Done.
  • An ending that comes out of nowhere, but still feels incredibly gratifying.

10/10. I no longer hesitate when people ask me my favorite game of all time. To anyone reading this: BUY THIS GAME. You will not regret it.
