Can we talk about The Forgotten City? (lemmy.world)

BEWARE OF POTENTIAL SPOILERS IN COMMENTS!

I played The Forgotten City for free via PS+ Extra and it's one of my all-time favorite gaming experiences! I urge anybody remotely interested to not look up a goddamn thing about this game beyond this blurb of mine (because spoilers are easy to stumble upon) and play it ASAP!

What is it? It started as a Skyrim mod developed by a lawyer who wanted to make something that's less of a game per se and more of an interactive story that delves into philosophical quandaries like the nature of morality. It's a first person game where you go to an island and wind up in an ancient city of sorts. There's a kind of groundhog day element to it and you have to figure out how to stop that from happening. It's a bit of a mystery, but nearly all of the gameplay is running around and talking to various characters, all of whom have unique personalities. It's like a really robust Fallout New Vegas mission, but without all the combat. You'll probably get through it in 20-40 hours.

Okay, now that that's outta the way, who wants to rant or gush about this little game?

I started playing it on Game Pass but got stuck and then it got taken off of Game Pass. I like detective games though so I'll try to finish it at some point.

Ooh, please do! If you are on PC, it looks like you can find it for $10 right now

I was playing it in xbox. I think I may already have it on Steam from some sale or something but I just prefer to sit on the sofa as I work behind the screen all day already.
