$5 is still way too much. It's not even the entertaining sort of bad game. It's just plain bad.

First half is watchable, but main character is like Captain Marvel. Animation is amazing, bit inspired by Miyazaki. Second half felt classic americans dont understanding books and making some discutable events.

A woman who challenges fragile egos and backward worldviews of insecure men, who then proceed to throw temper tantrums because they're insecure with fragile egos and suffer from SDE

Scenarist that irritates normal people with flat characters (how Netflix said with Witcher: americans cant understand complexity). Why Kenji Kamiyama didnt throw it into fire? He directed Kusanagi Motoko or Balsa.

I respectfully disagree about the animation. I found it tiring, uninspired and bland. The environments were also rushed at times; they looked like realistic photos with some cartoon filters slapped on them.

When I try to compare it with Miyazaki's, then I would describle it as: Miyazaki tooks photo, pin it next to screen and completly redraw it. This movie looks more like we make photo, put it into software and then draw over it with tools in software. It the price of using computers and as time continues, more and more companies use it. And yes, I like more old graphic. But this is modern and compare to other projects, it look good.

I'm interested in REVEIL. It is in the Storyteller bundle together with Gollum - and these two games are the only games I'm missing from the bundle. And the price of the two games together is cheaper as for REVEIL alone. So if I want to save money, I have to buy both games.^^

Oh yes, a big trap - but luckily, you can hide games in your library.

90% off from that game is stil expensive at 5€, the game is a mess, even the PR of the game is terrible when they release a statement written by AI that miss spell the game name.

Thanks for the heads up! I'll correct it.

It's a video, embedded like a link to e. g. a Steam page. Just Ctrl + v, only without title.

It's really a shame. Besides that, Daedalic also closed their internal game develop,ent and is "only" a publisher today.

They made good games like the Deponia series and Edna & Harvey.

Even after this amount of time it's still unplayable trash? Or is everybody still mad because they paid 60 USD/Euros for it?
I'm wondering if it's worth $5 to find out...

I looked around for some information/vids about the current state of the game, but all I could find were annoying YT personalities bashing the game for entertainment value. If anybody can point me to a reasonable, objective review-- either for against-- that would be awesome. :)

I didn't play it (and not really planning on) - but from what I've seen, it's a really mediocre game with bad quests, no bugfixing, 4k textures, raytracing, new models and voice acting could change it into a good one. Maybe a meh one. It has fundamental issues at writing and gameplay levels - they forgot to ask themselves, what people enjoy, and ended up with running around to collect slave tags. Weird that a studio got a freaking Lord of The Rings license, and neither could do something original and meaningful they wanted to create, nor did a competent trendchasing game.

Judging from SteamDB... the game has already been abandoned. There's been no updates to the game depots in 17 months.

I can't be sure about these youtubers, but there's a good chance that the bugs they experienced are still in the game. :(

They won't patch it anymore, because Dadealic closed their development studio shortly after this desaster.

They should have focused on what they did best, adventure Point & Click games, the previous game "A Year of Rain" was also a disaster I think.

Even if they made the Gollum game in Deponia style, it probably would have been much better.

The game is $3 in my region and $5.25 for the full edition.

And damn if that is not tempting. Glad I can't actually buy anything on Steam directly...
