Pros
- The Alters was also really good.
- It was surprisingly good imo (I expected it to be decent but some of the story really cut deep and caused serious reflection in myself which I was not expecting). Fun game. Interesting sci-fi story.
- It's very very good.
- Do it, it's my GOTY
- Alters are good too, you might wanna try
Cons
- Hopefully I can get past my game breaking bugs regarding alter rebellion with relaxed mode
- Good game. Dropped it because I kept hitting really annoying bigs that forced me to restart the game multiple times.
- I really enjoyed this until I got to the part with >! the anomalies that split the screen !< and I couldn't finish due to overpowering motion sickness
- I've finished already, but might replay with the relaxed difficult, there were a couple of instances that I barely made it because of the sun, I actually failed once but reloading from the start of the day I was able to do everything jus...
- The Alters just came out recently.

It is an interesting narrative game with survival and mangment elements. It's walking alot of fine lines imo but it does show there are cool design spaces left in gaming.
Parent context: I completely removed this game from my thoughts when I saw it was timed but with the new mode, which should have be in at release, I will certainly look into buying it! Reply: it is timed, but i played on normal difficulty, did all quest, explored every cranny and still had time left to just idle pass the days, timed thing i just to push narrative along.
