Currently playing the game and wanted to see what others thought of it. I read the two reviews, both were good without giving away too much plot. I wanted to commend Inferno for including the resource.200 tip. The load times were definitely taking me out of the game.

There are quite a few threads discussing the game but many have spoilers. You can read some safer opinions Here.

I am an extremely fussy gamer, but I loved this game. I'm disappointed because I haven't found a game since that has matched up to it, and it is definitely one of my all time favourites. I think the reason I enjoyed it so much was because the characters, story and acting were so well done. In some games I've played recently the voice acting was so overdone and frankly almost nauseating - I had to discard them after about 10 minutes of playing, (prime examples being Agon, and Belief and Betrayal). Apologies to those who love these games but frankly I thought they were pants! Still, tastes differ and as one boomer previously said opinions are all subjective in here.

Loved the game. I felt extremely frustrated at first, with the FMV's playing off the disk,and taking forever to initialise, so I am forever grateful that I found the tip about copying the resource file to hard disk, before it got to the point where I'd want to smash my mouse into the monitor. After that, it was such smooth sailing, that I finished the game in the next day or so.

Awesome. You are my hero, Inferno!

Seeing as a lot of the game's allure lies in trying to figure out what happened, I'd also be loathe to comment about the game in any way that might give away spoilers.
All I can say is that I'm happy to have played the game, and I enjoyed the way that it was structured, revealing more and more of the past; bit by bit.

The only voice that was annoying to me in Belief and Betrayal was the main character, Jonathan Danter. He's supposed to be this big tough guy and they gave him a teeny bopper's voice. However, the other characters were done quite well in my opinion.
