Deadly Premonition





I was told that to enjoy this game I needed to play it knowing that it's very badly done.

And it's true I quite enjoyed it though technically is awful; I played the Director's Cut version that thankfully has less flaws and sound is corrected, still awful, graphically models are correct but the scenarios, enviroment, textures and effects look really bad.



Also the controls are pretty bad on the shooting parts, plus it is too easy making it seem that these action parts are forcedly put there to be like other games. There's also a lot of driving around, driving would be boring and slow if it wasn't for the conversations with the other characters, specially between Zach and York.

The story is about a murder investigation, it is pretty good and as I like this theme I had fun going around a world with relative freedom finding clues, collectables, talking with the inhabitants and doing all the investigator stuff.



What I enjoyed the most is meeting the different characters and their development, they are so fun, unique, crazy and while they may seem irrealistic but I think they're not so much, I live in a small town too and there's plenty of these people: like one guy who always talks to me with riddles, the one that speaks too loud, or who always laughs at every phrase he says (I went a bit of offtopic here).

Plus the protagonist is awesome, agent Francis York Morgan is now one of my favorite characters ever.

Did I like it? Zach says so.
I think you will like it if you:
- Are open minded enough to ignore its flaws
- Are weird enough to enjoy this game

I rate my experience with a 8 out of 10.
