  1. I'm playing on PC. It's running off a solid state drive too, so I'm not sure what the deal is. The times weren't egregious, but were enough to make me plan out where I went to minimize loading. Also, I bunny hopped constantly. :D

     

    The stargazing was great. As were the poems. Getting a new poem was one of my favorite parts of each day, and it's even better when you can get a bonus one from the tunnel guy.

     

    I really liked the music when you wake up in the morning, and how you can just sit there and enjoy it for as long as you'd like.

     

    Is it possible to find more than two musicians in the town? I get the impression that it isn't. It'd be great if all four would play on the bridge at the end. Then you could chill on the bridge watching the sun, soaking in the music.


  2. Wow. It is exceptional, and easily surpassed any expectations I had for it. It's much longer than I'd imagined it would be, and has a surprising amount of replayability (Though, I'll probably wait a bit before going through it again with the hope that they'll be able to get the load times down.).


  3. I enjoyed the Mario races last night. Generally speaking, I think the races are way more entertaining to watch. I also prefer watching people play the actual games supernaturally well rather than relying having skills glitching out of bounds.


  4. I thought it was alright. It was a good idea that didn't stick the landing. For me, the biggest problem was the two central characters. They are so flat and uninteresting, and their character "arcs" are at right angles. What's-her-face was particularly distressing because her motivation made no sense. Who is she and why is she assuming the role of corny motivational speaker? Oh, her dad is an engineer... I guess that makes sense?...

     

    I'm glad they tried a few new things though.

     

    Also, I found myself oddly bored by it, but I can't place my finger on exactly why.


  5. I can't answer your question, but I just started playing again and have encountered at least one bug involving the game not correctly returning player control following the viper king's reaction turn in certain circumstances.


  6. Why would they get hate mail? It's a thoroughly underwhelming show, though episodes 5 and 6 were slightly better. It's incredible how little I care about any of the characters or figuring out what's going on. After episode 7 you can't help but compare it to BSG. I was emotionally invested in BSG's characters, and the cylon reveals (at least the early ones) were truly impactful. But, the equivalent in West World just made me yawn and check how much time was left in the episode.
