Sometimes, very rarely, I stumble upon a game and think "What?" "How?" followed by "Wow, that's interesting". Some games are different from others. From the majority of games we've played.
A few years ago I tried Portal and Portal 2 for the first time, after getting them on sale and based on the insane number of reviews. Those games are different. They are unique. I don't think I experienced anything like that before or after.
Well, today I've watched this trailer (watch it, don't hesitate, it's only 2 mins):
Now, what did I just watch?-- that was my thought. Holy Moly, it looks so intriguing.
The next thing I did was go to Steam and watch one of the original trailers for the vanilla game.
Then I looked at the game's user reviews and Metacritic page.
I have to say, their trailer for the Ultra Deluxe just sold me the game. And probably, invited me to one of the most surprising gaming experiences ever***. When I finish it, I'll try to share my thoughts here.
I would be very surprised if at this point you haven't purchased the game already.
*** Well, probably it was also the voice of Kevan Brighting (a British VO for the narrator) and the fact the trailer reminded me of Brazil (a 1985 dystopian black comedy film directed by Terry Gilliam).
