Reason: Left a word out, haha
I played Dear Esther for the first time yesterday. It is definitely
extremely different from what I'm used to with video games. But, for me at least, it's a
good difference. The graphics in the game are stunning, and although all the
just walking was annoying as heck at first -- I got into what the game was about and started enjoying it.
Not everyone will like the style presented with this game, especially if fps, quests, killing mobs, or solving puzzles are the only game styles you enjoy. To give the game a fair chance I would go with pico22's suggestion to
not read any reviews about the game before playing it. Some of the reviews are just brutal. Though I've only played the first chapter of the game myself, it is blatantly obvious some of the reviewers didn't even get that far.
