CW: The game contains scenes including deaths and children experiencing murder. Alcohol abuse, sexual assault, prostitution, violence and offensive language.

This was a weird one. First: it has the best knees in video games, hands down. Second: it gets shocking towards the end of the stream when it switches formats of storytelling and gets kinda graphic in its descriptions of harm and death. The game is (according to the devs) about storytelling, and I begin to see some of what they're trying to do in that back half, but I wish the beginning had been a bit tighter in getting to the thesis.

This was part of my game studio's Future Proof Plays series of streams. Check out our upcoming schedule and our entire set of archives (including my partner's streams) over on YouTube. Follow me over on Twitch to watch my streams live.
