This is a beautiful game, with interesting puzzels and a semi-open world to wander about in. I found the main story to be interesting and enjoyable, but I was baffeled by some minor story arcs that seemed, at first, to be random tangents, but that I latter realized were subtle clues (perhaps too subtle) about the nature of the main story.

The only drawback for me, is that once the game is complete with all of the puzzels solved and the story concluded, there is little reason to play the game again. Yes, the game is beautiful, but the story unfolds the same regardless of what order you encounter it and its minor sub-plots.

I enjoyed this game and recommend it, but due to the lack of replayability, I think most folks will enjoy this game more if they buy it on sale or receive it as a gift.
