washablemarkers

I must have started and not finished this game at least three times back on the Wii. I think on my last attempt (in 2011 or 2012) I made it to the cloud area (???) before checking out and not bothering to come back. I would really love to play through and finish it; one of the reasons why I was never able to were those darn waggle controls. It's a long game but parts of it are really neat and I like a lot of the design.

I also don't own a Wii U and maybe this and Mario Kart and Splatoon are enough to justify dropping some dimes.

I'll wait for the reviews. I liked the beta a lot but I'm worried about the single-player content variety. Plus, Ubi games tend to drop in price fairly quickly, if this gets decent scores and seems to have legs I'd pick it up for $40 or $50.

Finally picked this up today. I'm trash but it's a ton of fun. PSN: washablemarkers

3/5

Liked the last third a whole lot more than what came before it.

I'm also going to pick it up and then wait for the patch. Sounds like it's pretty bad, but it's on a plus sale through tomorrow.

In the desert I noticed that if the sun hit the structure emblem just right it looked exactly like a start point. I tried it and lo and behold it worked. There's no way I could ever collect them all, but they're so satisfying when you figure them out.

PSN has this on sale for $19 regular or $23 deluxe. $19 seems like a pretty accessible price - I'm tempted to check it out.

I'd miss the press conferences. They're one of the rare times when it feels like anything can happen.

I think I'm at 150.

The Witness is very good and has a lot of depth, so it will last you a while. I also might take this time to finally (finally!) check out Gone Home.
