Minds Beneath Us

Minds Beneath Us is one of those games that grabbed me visually, and then left me vomiting at the quality of writing. It's so bad that I actually thought the game was being clever at the start, that the writing quality was more to do with the npc potentially being a *Spoiler* but nope; its actually incredibly bad. Either the original translation to english didn't really translate well or lost some of its meaning, but I doubt it; rarely have i refunded a game so quick based on just how bad the writing was. Visually it's great, and the story is potentialliy interesting. However attrocious quality in writing that makes AI slop look like Shakespear makes me think that they absolutely skipped on hiring writers for this and what we got were the placeholder text - it's that bad. The overwhelmingly positive rating for this makes me even more deeply suspicious now. Chinese farm bots or just people who don't mind reading trash-quality scripts on their screen. The quality of the writing akins to something like "Oh wow. You make me happy. I'm so glad. Thank you for making me happy" - "I'm really glad you stood up for me. I overheard you. I'm happy you stood up for me. I think I actually like it when you stand up for me now." Stay away from what appears to be a very deceptive game that is absolutely perceptively crap!
