absolutely amazing game. the visuals and atmosphere are at a level unlike any other game, constantly keeping you in this state of unrest until you reach the final chapter, and it really leaves an impact even after you finish the game. also, the optimization is fantastic - i could comfortably play at 1080p on my integrated graphics with zero stuttering.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
54 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Every frame is full of detail, from dust and raindrops to subtle lighting and character reactions, and the eerie soundtrack perfectly complements the tone.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
22 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
A gameplay that is so well designed that it comes free of any interface, tutorial or difficulty settings.

Inside looks amazing on OLEDs, especially my G9 OLED and Steam Deck.
