I picked up the first one like a year back and ended up playing it through in two long sessions.
I relate to the Mass Effect 2 comments. One of my absolute favorite RPGs that fails at basic RPG things.
I got the first game a month ago and binged it in three sessions. It was a fantastic experience, and I rate the game highly. However, I wish the decisions you made had a more significant impact on the story. I understand that maintaining a great narrative can make this challenging, but I hope part 2 can expand on that aspect. From what I’ve heard, it sounds like it might offer more flexibility in choices. Regardless, I’ll probably enjoy it either way.
