I have spent more than a few hours with the game and enjoy the beautiful graphics a lot. But the game is not about the “visuals only” . I think there are a few things that should be fixed almost necessarily because otherwise the game will much poorer without them:
- walking through Talmberg I was missing a lot - cattle, pigs, horses …black cats crossing the way and barking dogs
Talmberg seems to be “almost” a ghost village populated by people only
- walking through the meadows and woods I was missing hares, deers, sound of birds and birds overhead, storks and bees, woodpecker’s noise doing their job, bears …etc.
just a music …which is fine but not enough to make a realistic impact on a player
- people - VERY IMPORTANT ! what I miss the most are personalities and their uncopiable manners of their own - I do not expect that every person we meet in the game will be unique but I miss stammering people, and blind people, beggers, sluts, thieves and people that would interrupt my journey themselves - for fun, gain or whatever purpose, I miss people with their uniquesness like funny way of moving or speaking, some circus troup members etc. It’s very important that some of the persons be unforgettable by their unique way of being or sense of humor. I also miss spicy dialogues or people who would refuse to talk or ask money for talking … I miss some funny twists and turns
. IT was so borign going around and inquiring about Reeky - every person I met had just about the same to say about him - no stammering people, no funny side-talks or jokes, no funny, spicy conversations. I was just missing that . I thing that every investigation should be a thrilling experience …“who are we going to meet now” :). In this regard, the gameplay lacks variety a bit :). And veriety is crucial for sucess I belive. I think the team should work on this
