Split Fiction
We finally finished it and it's a hard game to evaluate. It's in many ways amazing but nearly all of them are through the prism of it being a co-op game. There are many times when the game stretches your patience and it's in some ways creatively thought out but in others infinitely more generic than the devs think it is. It's little things that make completing it half a relief and leaves me uncertain they would deliver as strong if they made a straight up single player game. SF is such an extension of the balance It Takes Two kind of did better but on a smaller scale that it also makes me think another co-op game pushing things further would be the point they tip the scale and Papa EA gets involved. Weird note to end the experience on. It's good, very good... but not GOTY level good as was made out.

To a T - from Katamari/Noby Noby Boy guy, certainly looks like one of them but has zero freedom and experimentation after making it up episode 3, just follow a Kid stuck a in T pose doing QTE's with occasional long quirky song from a giraffe (if it's a new giraffe song it's unskippable), all so very boring, if anyone got further than the start of ep3 and it opens up into something different, i'd like to know.
