Finished Oxenfree last night. It’s a short-ish adventure game that’s kind of like Stranger Things and Life is Strange. About a group of teenagers that open up a portal into another dimension. The dialogue is really great, it’s similiar to the Telltale stuff but a lot of the time characters will interrupt eachother which is a nice touch.
It flows really naturally, even though not all of the voice acting is superb, though I’m not sure if my problem is a really nitpicky one in that it’s not always recorded great? Whether characters are speaking in large caves or outside or in small rooms, their voice sounds the same, like if you close your eyes you imagine someone talking really close to a microphone. Not sure I’m making sense there.
But anyways yeah. Oxenfree. Really cool, surprisingly tragic and emotional.
I’ve started Soma and I’m really enjoying it, though the performance on my PC isn’t great and I don’t get why. Going to try and fix that tonight.
