Esoteric Ebb

Esoteric Ebb

A somewhat short game with a good premise but flawed execution.The game has some good dialogue and at times tries to seem impartial but it has a very immature level of understanding of the ideologies it represents and a very immature writing, the main character, despite being capable of having an intelligence stat above 20, is clueless and very nonsensical many times, specially when any human alive would be able to act normally and answer a question like a person; that's the flaw of many modern media, forgetting that characters are supposed to be people and, although not in a realistic world, act in a realistic way.Combat, when presented as an option, is very boring and just a dialogue box with a few extra steps.The characters are acceptable, some are above average, some are very stupid but acceptable nonetheless.In the end, a fun adventure that, without marvel dialogue and quirky writing/worldbuilding, would be a 9.
