Having been a big fan of the first game I eventually picked this one up, I was especially curious to see what happened to the main character from the first uncertain, but I couldn’t even make it through the whole game.

The developers threw away two golden opportunities. First of all you don’t play as a Robot, or really interact with them. Which besides being extremely unique also meant that voice acting and animation didn’t need to be life-like, because well they’re robots. All the characters are super stiff and Janky and the voice acting isn’t very good. It comes together some of the time, but you just wish you were still playing as the bots.

They also forwent the traditional point and click gameplay for a more modern third person style for really no reason. You still can only interact with only a few things in the environment, all it seems to really do is complicate development because now all the areas have to be fully traversable. I’m also assuming this is why the visuals have had such an extreme downgrade, as well as exhibiting a litany of bugs.

I could probably deal with this stuff, because I was still digging the melancholy vibe (although the first game was also vastly superior in this regard) but when I was looking something up about a puzzle I came to find out this game ALSO ends on a cliffhanger and the developers have flat out stated there not going to continue this series.

Yeah that did it for me. I skimmed the rest of the game on youtube and I can confirm that it clearly is meant to be a part of a larger story and without the rest it's just not worth getting invested in. It’s been stated by the developer/publisher that they aren’t continuing due to low sales, but I can’t really blame anyone for not being interested in this due to the fact that it's a downgrade in every conceivable way.
