Positive:
- New gaming experience that I would not recognize and have long yearned for.
- The setting 40s in the US and the film noire genre have done it to me.
- The facial animations from which we "read" may: truth, doubt and lies have been so not to be seen in games.
- Extremely well successful soundtrack.
- Pure atmosphere!
- Story and dramaturgy the necessary criminal cases are class!
- Long play time compared to other games. I have already played 22 hours and have the disc 3 almost completely in front of me. I take my time, doing the side quests and enjoy the atmosphere.
- You have several choices: Does the one the traveling Duch LA of the 40, it can be with a long print run to Y key colleagues and thus to handle the drive completely and come to the next place. The tone and Rumble notes the controller at crime scenes for evidence are also on the menu suppressible, this, I propose also to those before the really deeply want to plunge into the "determination of feeling". For all other information, the effects are still helpful. The developers have done here really make an effort. And finally there's the possible circumvention of the Action (side quests). But I have all taken what was offered and felt it was nice change from investigation work and action share.
Negatives:
- Lack of localization: What bothers me most reading subtitles, that is sensational but always out! The rides in the car, and during interrogations at the most.
- The control is in the action sequences sometimes annoying (hakelig). Really bad or even "unplayable" I would not call it.
- The procedure is similar to but in those cases, not that it would not even surprise, but a little more variety in the cases would have been great.
- The investigation of cases and cases could be somewhat tricky in my opinion, and then more kombinierarbeit would have been nice. That's it been even if would have here given a menu choice between "Minor cases" and "difficult cases".
Conclusion:
Personally, I have to many action enjoyed completely different gameplay & Ballerspielen and hope as developer side on more material in this direction for the future! If this game had come with German sound output that would have further strengthened my positive impression. As it is, I would rate it 8/10. Or rather in the Amazon rating system with 4/5 stars.
