Well there you go I created an account just to leave this comment as this is only review I found that, in my opinion, was getting above the hype and proposed an sensible take on the game. Yes, it is artistically daring, yes it has great reference and sometimes capitalises greatly on them, but I this is definintely not the glorious, shiny game most reviews out there are selling us. Especially on PS4: I don't how the game plays on the PC, but my experience on PS4 was just terrible, with what felt like laggy and choppy controls most of the time... And the motion sickness! I am so surprised to read that our of 17 comments, 3 mention the motion sickness problem! This is crazy, I have never been prone to that while playing a game before... I also agree that although it is an interesting approach, the lack of voicing, or just of some extra narrative medium (text or whatever) is sometimes a handicap to get the plot across. Factoring in the choppy controls that may prevent you for looking at the right place when a key animation occurs, this is just plain frustrating. I'd still think say the experience can be worth it though (especially if an update comes up to clear the FPS / choppiness problems).
