And yes, there is an involving story, colorful characters, and amazing atmosphere to go with it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5955403937403470702.post-52041706314869360192013-07-08T00:53:02.701-05:002013-07-08T00:53:02.701-05:00I will first direct you to my review:

Brandon's right; you can focus purely on the main plot to get a linear story, but pretty soon you'll want to wander off and do stuff more befitting your character :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02548680159204361401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5955403937403470702.post-56812187430232237642013-07-07T16:51:39.343-05:002013-07-07T16:51:39.343-05:00Oh, if I played video games I really wouldn't ...Oh, if I played video games I really wouldn't get any writing done . . .

There were little stories everywhere that had a start middle and end. Don't get me wrong I often had a....."I'm going to go save this person from the evil...oooo butterfly, where does this path go, is that a bear on a tree...." moments, but the game is awesome.<br /><br />Also, if you play through the main story line the game can be linear, though the temptation to wander is strong.
