The gameplay is light, but the presentation is superb. The world flows around you, dialogue responding to your pacing so naturally that it's hard to believe it's not static. The story kept us guessing the whole time and it made great use of 3rd/1st person perspective. Felt like an interrogation of the attention and steaming economies, which most modern-set games don't really engage with. The whole world was beautifully designed too: retro futurism as far as the eye could see. I kept wondering why we don't have lobbies like that. And where their noses were!
