I read about this game months ago, when it was released I was very glad to see that it was on PS Plus from Day 1. Since I am already subscribed to PS Plus, I have downloaded it and playing it right now. I really like the game up until now.

I will probably try the studio's other games like The Messenger when I'm done!

Yeahh, that’s what I was worried about.

It annoys me because I’m writing my own story, agonizing over excess word count and trimming every scene I can, but I still feel like they’re all additive and value - even if not to the core plot, to some very valuable theme.

Then I play a JRPG and there’s just a random scene where two characters go play hide and go seek for pure padding.

The medium matters. And context does too. This is a videogame. I have to play through your content. You are writing what I assume is a book or comic.

I'm Sos case, those first 5 hours are useless. Does it help to know where the main protagonists came from? Sure. It adds to the story. But if I have to play through that and none of that ends up being relevant to the story, then it was filler content.

I saw a comment where they compared this game to chrono trigger, saying how in 5 hours toy had traveled back and forth through time twice, rescued a princess, got in a trial for kidnapping and added 5 characters to your party.
