The Descendant

11 hours, 50 of 50 achievements
3,5/5

What the heck? Why can't I walk over a can (insert any random weird items here) on the floor but a folded chair lying around?
So yeah, the controls were really not pretty. Not sure if this is due to playing with controller or if this just is a thing, but there we are. A lot of weird turning around. Like leaving the room and instantly re-entering, bc I failed. That was not nice. Also pressing B to quickly to get out of a thing - bc I played the game 2 1/2 times and at some point knew I'd just go back out and not really look around - might lead to being stuck and having to restart from the last savepoint. Which is very stupid. So no hurrying with that I guess.
Onto the story itself. I very much liked it. I really got into the apocalyptic stuff and trying to survive it. In the end things are - as usual - totally different than expected. Ok maybe not TOTALLY, but a lot :D Only minor cases of - huh, how does this fit together? For example when we do something with Mia and Silas is doing his thing. It just doesn't really fit together with his point of view later on. At least it seemed that way to me. Also and this is the biggest thing bugging me about the WHOLE GAME! What happens to Silas? I really have no idea. For all the other characters you get a last glimpse of what happens, but he just… nope, nothing, nada! He might just be lying in some corner and quietly dying, but that would be too easy, right?
For some reason I thought the HQ dude with the Scottish accent was David Tennant, but… he wasn't. Which kinda disappointed and at the same time irritated me. Bc why did I think it was him? I blame Broadchurch. Weird, weird.
Anyway, I liked it. Although this one achievement was a bit of a hassle. You have to interact with everything in a certain situation in Chapter 5. And two times it just didn't work. The third time I really interacted with everything on the way up and also the way down. The Second item on the way down unlocked it in the end. So wow. But I got it, so who cares :D

Deiland - or the long waiting game
Honestly! It's a crap ton of waiting! Waiting for your crops to grow, for your trees to grow, for ppl to come by, for the RIGHT ppl to come by, for having enough money, for having MORE money. For finding bugs, that screw you for a millisecond, bc then you go right back to waiting some more. Oh, and worst of all: Waiting for the right monster to finally come! Which they somehow refuses to do - yes, I'm talking of you, stupid crab monsters! >.<
Encountered two bugs: Never ever go with Mûn, when somebody else was with her on the planet.
Also never ever try to make money by selling your 4 sheep to Umi bc they give 525 and then by 5 sheep for 500. In the end I had hardly no money AND no sheep. The heck???
And always buy stuff Like yes get the stupid diamond, if you can afford it, from Goliath, and really, buy uhm… yeah… stuff which you have to get from monsters and hardly do or can only get from merchants anyway, bc that way you don't HAVE TO WAIT EVEN MORE UNTIL THEY COME BY SO YOU CAN GIVE THE STUPID CRAP TO OTHER PPL! Really, we are supposed to be special, not the stupid postman/cook/errant boy! D:
No LEWD-rating nor gay ship included (unless you count the pink alien obv in heat…)
Recommendation? It looks cute, it could be nice. But no, I don't recommend it. Too. much. waiting.


Cat Story ahead!
Ups, I did it again! runs away

So much from me :)
Have a lovely week!
