Perfect game in every way. Peak story, fluid combat, etc etc. 10/10 There is one misconception that the game has multiple endings. It is true in some way but it would be more accurate to say that the game continues after credits roll. And for multiple times.

My favorite feature was: "*This game does not support auto-save. Play the game to find out how to save." And then I played the game and found out how to save.

This game was life-changing for me. I played through it on PS4 and got the Platinum trophy. It was important enough that I wrote the date on a sticky note that I took a picture of and put the note in the game case. For me, it marked the moment that I started fighting against my depression and anxiety that had wreaked havoc on my life for several years at that point. I'm grateful that this game exists and I get to play it again on PC.
