What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The story was extremely interesting, and willing to cross lines that can only be crossed in games where developers don't worry about pleasing audiences or creating that feel-good happy ending.
There were definite moments where the progression of your skills felt like they had an impact and were recognized within the world, but it never felt like a grind, and the opportunity cost of focusing was rewarding without becoming paralyzing.
In a world where PC gaming no longer stands on the edge of the frontier in terms of innovative technology and ground-breaking graphics, games such as Arcadie, Second Born that take a more basic and dated approach to storytelling serve as a great reminder that the content and passion of a product is worth more than impressive graphics and immersion.
