Patient Gamers

I'll go against the grain a bit here and say that I found this game to be very boring.

The combat is bad, the puzzles are boring and repetitive.

What the game does well is atmosphere and storytelling. It's mostly a monologue of the main character which is performed quite well but that's not what I look for in a game.

I personally play much more fast-paced games so it simply didn't cater to me.

Just make sure to take breaks for fresh air and get some sunshine. The game is supposed to show how a psychosis feels like and apparently they did a good job.

It's a very good game, also available on GOG. It also has a VR version which helps with immersion. Earphones are a must to properly enjoy the game.

I’ll join the others in saying it’s definitely worth a try. The main character’s actress does a phenomenal job.

As for the hardware, I think it will do fine, but be sure to try it within 2 weeks of purchase (and not play more than two hours) so the Steam refund policy can protect you if needed.

Can't speak to the hardware question but the game itself is definitely worth playing, especially with headphones.

It's one of the few games that I think everyone should experience at least a little of. The puzzles can be a little meh, and the combat is fiiiiiiine, but where the game really shines is in its atmosphere, world design and use of FMV and audio to really sell it's story and put you inside the protagonist head.

I thought it was very moving. Psychosis simulator.

It's verified for the Steam Deck. So it should run OK on slower hardware.

Actually yeah, runs really well on older hardware and looks amazing. The story and gameplay are really good too.

I don't know about the hardware requirements, but the game is a very interesting journey. I enjoyed it.
