Sherlock Holmes: Chapter One Travels to a Mediterranean Paradise

I'm looking forward to this, but that open world format has me concerned. I really like the more episodic structure of Crimes and Punishments and Devil's Daughter (even though that one sucked). It could work and I know they experimented with that idea through Sinking City, but it's completely unproven in a SH game and Frogwares really needs to knock this one out of the park after how thoroughly disappointing Devil's Daughter was.

Strangely looks like Hitman. Ah well, I’ll give it a go, you can mostly look past the gameplay as the story and characters are usually great in these games.

I'm really not on board with the character design...
As for the open-world, we'll see. I tend to think that, generally, for games about solving mystery, more focused "levels" are better (see Crimes and Punishment)

@Olmaz I know what you mean, they might as well have called it Twink & Twinkier

@get2sammyb Of course. That's why it makes me annoyed we won't get a gameplay deep dive until December or January according to Frogwares. The other part that has me concerned though that relates to the open world nature is that Frogwares has specifically mentioned the game won't give you any clues as to what to do next during a mission. The article I read that from could have misunderstood what they were saying, but that does not sound fun to me at all, especially in an open world setting.

Is this the same Dev from the last two games? Did they resolve their issues with their publisher?

It's funny to see him called the young detective though, my favourite Holmes is Jeremy Brett and he was pretty old by the time that series finished. And of course there's Ian Mckellens Mr. Holmes, I don't think you can get older than that haha. (Unless rathbone's Holmes aged in real time when they shifted his movies from Victorian to war time)

Edit: I see this a Holmes begins type outing so I guess young detective makes sense!

I've never played any of the Frogwares games. I picked up Devil's Daughter for $5 on a recent sale, even though it seems like people dislike it. Hopefully I'll get some fun out of it.
