I wanted to read it, but I figured I'd read the short story first, and I also wanted to see what the game had to offer too, since the article is a tad spoiler-y. I sat with that article open in a tab for the past 2 months until I finally made the time to read through the short story a couple days ago, and yesterday I watched a full playthrough of the game. This morning I finally read the article, read the HN discussion, and not a few minutes later I get a notification on my phone from a "free game alerts" Twitter account that the game was free on GOG. Strange!
Even if you're not interested in playing the game, the short story can be read online for free, and it's pretty fantastic. Give it a look, if you haven't!
- low_tech_love 5y agoIf you like old adventure games, filfre.net is an amazing blog to follow. The entire backlog of articles is great to dig through. Edit: I’m currently in the middle of a playthrough of the game and also have the article open in a tab. :)
