Just finished playing Dear Esther

[RawkBandMan]

The game, is what I think, supposed to be a story telling game. Nothing else. What you're paying for, is basically a $9.99 book, where you can control the protagonist in the world of Dear Esther. You should've looked it up a little more before you bought it, because I am sure most reviews say that the game is basically a book placed into a interactive world. Since this is a 'book', $9.99 (Or at least here in Canada) is a steal. Most books nowadays cost at least $20/$25.

True, I only played the mod, but I expect them to be very similar, besides graphics and achievements. I found the mods atmosphere to be chilling, and the story to be quite good. It took me a couple playthroughs, but at the end, the story actually made sense (With some help from the Internet to explain the story, as well), and I enjoyed it. I played the mod about five more times after that before it stopped working for an unknown reason, but I am confident that once my new computer arrives, I will be either buying this game, or re-downloading the mod again.

This is all matter of opinion, so don't really take much of what I said as a fact. (Besides the game, for the most part, being a book.)
