Knocked a title off of
My Gaming List Of Shame! Here are some brief thoughts on Dreamfall Chapters as a whole.
It's a very pretty game, and Propast was fun to explore. Later chapters had a ton of fan service for those who played the first two games. The Epilogue packed in a lot of emotion, and was a great way to close the series. I also enjoyed the slide show of important moments from all three games that was shown the credits.
Some things I wasn't too keen on were the lack of puzzles that the first game (and to lesser extent 2nd) had. The game falls squarely into the "walking simulator" style of adventure games. Outside of Propast, it follows an "on rails" style where there isn't much exploration. The game only has one ending, so the choices you make have very little bearing on the overall story. In my case, I was lucky that my choice combination kept my daughter's favorite character alive for a brief conversation at the end. I was disappointed that Red Thread didn't dive deeper into the story behind Saga, or do anything else with her parents. Or touch on the Guardian of the Balance. It also felt odd that they turned a character who helps you in the first two games into something else with very little explanation.
Overall, I recommend the game only if you finished the first two. Chapters doesn't explain enough for someone new to the series to get the full experience solely by playing this third installment.
