Great game. Everything is interconnected, the investigations are layered, unravel in a satisfying way, and a staggering amount of detail and lore has been written. The world feels very cohesive as a result. The visuals and chinese voice acting are also incredible. Very easy to recommend.

The game is a bit sloppy at times, and the translation could have been more polished, but I did like the story a lot.

I will be honest, some parts did not really make sense to me and some elements were repetitive, but overall it's a really fun and interesting game

This game is no perfect by any means. The voice acting (in Eglish anyway) is awful and inconsistent, I would've preferred if it was silent. And occasionally there's an exhausting abundance of dialogues. I just finished Three Signatures and I thought that I would die before the old man dies. But I find myself so engrossed in the whole story and the world, I give it a thumbsup. I think it will be one of the most memorable games I've ever played. And I like the general vibe of the visuals

Both the narrative and characters work are super strong , it reminds me also Minds Beneath Us, and that's high praise.
