Heh game reviewers, worthy of grouping in with The Sun here. Apparently it got 10/10 from some console magazine, as well.

Read Icarus Effect over the weekend. Maybe it's my incessant need to dismantle things, but I felt like I could see the seams. Where they stitched together an original plot with ties to the game.

 

The good part is that it doesn't seem you'll miss anything playing the game without reading the book. The bad part is that if you have read the book, you might expect references to the events, but I don't see that happening.

Game is not crap, I'll bet 20 on it. Animations are fine for "social" bosses, otherwise they're passable. Certainly better than in bethesda games.

 

Never said it was.

 

Are they better than VtM Bloodlines in your opinion?

 

The boss ones are better, others aren't.

 

Fair enough. When the reviews go on automatic "Omg its the bestest game eva" mode, I get a sudden urge to rain on their parade.

И погибе Српски кнез Лазаре,
И његова сва изгибе војска, 
Седамдесет и седам иљада;
Све је свето и честито било
И миломе Богу приступачно.
