bueno

Usually, I dont like these type of games, you know, the "artsy" ones. And as for Firewatch, I hated the first hour of the game. Like, "soo stupid", "nothing interesting is happening", 'too slow", "climbing, hiking, jumping omg how much more of this". But then, the game, for whatever reason, hooked me and there I was, enjoying the hell out of the story i deemed was boring. In the end, even though I played Firewatch for only 3 hours, when I was escaping the fire through the Thunder Canyon, I felt something, right in my chest, hard to describe

A narrative classic that I really enjoyed. It's age shows, kind of, so the price is a bit steep, but given it is regularly on discount for just a few bucks. It accomplishes a lot with just the walkie-talkie reporting mechanic, and your buddy on the other end is a delight to listen to. Frankly, all dialogues are great, and the sound design is awesome as well. I may just free roam around the map given hopw beautiful and lively the world is. Somethings I wished were more pronounced are, for one, more of a branching narrative. Nothing crazy, but you do not really get confronted with any moral choices in the game. The choices more or less happen to you, if that makes sense. It's still a great title though, completable in a few hours. Really reccommend!

It's a nice tiny story.

excellent

Breathtaking views, brilliant voice acting, and a wonderfully human story. I found the story a bit ominous and uncanny yet It is short, sweet, and an unforgettable expereince. Though I believe the ending could have been a bit better. Still 8.5/10
