Is this game worth playing? I like adventures but Heavy Rain was a chore.
Its an OK game. I got it on sale and don't regret the time spent playing it, but the controls are awkward and there wasn't much nuance to the story. There appear to be lots of potential story-line elements based on your decisions, but it was too slow and cumbersome to be worth a replay for me.
By comparison, I quit Heavy Rain pretty early, I seem to recall walking around yelling for my child for an extended period of time and that was the last I ever played it. IMO, Detroit is a much better game than that.
It looks like Steam has it on sale for $12 at the moment, which is less than I paid for it. I played it one time through for 12 hours, so $1 per hour of entertainment isn't terrible. Not a glowing endorsement, I guess.
JASON!! Thanks.
