i looked everywhere for you

i wish popn music was real

i have to write this pretty much just because i feel insane otherwise. idk if i've ever been that underwhelmed finishing a game. i largely contribute that feeling to the reviews/critical reception. 26k and they all say the same thing.

'SOMA is one of the most philosophical, incredible, and darkest games I have ever seen. The game is reminiscent of novelist Michael Crichton's Sphere, but is even more profound, disturbing, and mind-blowing. It's just incredible.'
'One of the best, most amazingly mind-f*cking, deep stories you will ever EVER experience. You will end up questioning your entire existence, and what life itself truly is.'

idk what these guys are on, for real. i didn't expect very much, i just expected something, like a twist or a statement, and then nothing happened. it's not the devs fault. they didn't sell their game as a super thought provoking mind boggling existential thought experiment, they just made something they thought was interesting, and to their credit, and to general positive reviews, it definitely is.

it's fine. the gameplay is as tedious as you would expect. people play for the story, but i just didn't really think it was anything special. if you're interested in what is essentially a short story with atmosphere, you might enjoy it more than i did because the game is mostly neat moments, but i feel like i made a mistake in assuming there would be more than that.

Roll it up until there's nothing left, then turn it into a star.

It's beautiful.

one of the best games out there. vibrant characters, challenging levels and an extremely satisfying soundtrack. also one of the only games out there that really makes you earn your best ending. that could be a little off-putting to some, though.

if you're really cheap there's a freeware version, but with the upgraded graphics and a few new modes i'd definitely recommend spending the few bucks. (not really a fan of the new soundtrack, but you can change it back in the options)

everyone already knows this game is great and it's free now and it's great so why are you not playing it right now
