No! Story and atmosphere are superb in Machine for Pigs. How can you call it poorly and unfinished? Games with such high-quality design are very rare these days. Prof. Dr. Dan Pinchbeck is probably the best story

He's the best writer for hipster-dialog, that's for sure. Don't know how to actually write characters that people are supposed to like? Just fill the game with random notes about jaguar men and call it 'deep'. If people don't like it, it's because they can't appreciate 'art', not because you fail at your job as a developer.

EDIT: I'm one of those that actually liked 'Dear Esther' because it was exactly what it set out to be. Even as a stand alone horror game, A Machine for Pigs isn't that great.
