Characters will often try to walk through you, walking in place until you move or not facing you during a conversation. And that's jarring when you hear them so frequently. The readings veer from flat to overly emoted, depending on the character, never settling into a realistic tone. That'd be fine if the voice acting were stellar, but in this case, it's not. And speeding past the conversations is spotty. The game's long on exposition and story - and tells it at a slow pace. But if you're coming in with no knowledge of the world and anything less than a devotion to the genre, you might find it lacking. Old school adventure game fans, who don't mind having extensive conversations with characters and challenging puzzles might also find some charm here. Fans of Beyond a Steel Sky's cult hit predecessor - Beneath a Steel Sky - will be thrilled to return to the game's world (and might overlook its flaws because of that).
