Space Voyager Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 On 2/9/2024 at 8:38 PM, Thorondor said: The Expanse: A Telltale Series Deluxe Edition is now also available on GoG. Just a thought... I played through the game, my first Telltale game. As far as the story goes, really good, loved it. As far as the gameplay goes, this is a bit too hands-off approach for me. Player's decisions do have some, albeit limited, influence on what happens, though in the end I feel they don't matter much. Also, the actions the game demands from the player seem completely redundant. Pressing one or the other key isn't really skill... You'll get it right eventually and the story will unfold. So, It would feel far better to me if the game was either far more skill dependent (playing as a FPS or action RPG) or it would be just the story with an occasional decision to be made (basically a slightly interactive movie). That said, it was not a waste of time, still worth the buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorondor Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 @SV: thanks for the summation. It almost goes without saying, this day and age, that you shouldn't go into a game like this completely blind. Expectations and hype simply tower way too high, so spoiler-free reviews are your best guidance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
