[QUOTE="tragicThaumaturge, post: 8067774, member: 6975610"] The review left me with an unclear idea of what parts of the game work and which don't. Funnily enough, I have the impression that the adventure really isn't that good, because for example the first part seems completely disconnected from the rest of the story. I did feel the conclusion was lacking in a way that reflects the rest of the review. Too much time is spent discussing the problems with real world parallels (which I don't consider relevant, but if you do, fair enough) and not enough time is spend discussing why certain parts of the adventure work as a game or not. I would have appreciated a review more focused on the game itself, because the political matters have been talked about to death for the past months. Yet I haven't really been able to find much information on the adventure itself. This is the second review I've been able to find (the other one wasn't very favorable either, but it left me with a better sense of WHY I wouldn't like it as a game, regardless of it's subject matter).
