"Linear" is not a word I would use to describe it, hah. I'm pretty sure you can go back to the start, make different choices, and play another 70+ hours of content you've never seen. Which is even more insane.

that's the thing that set it apart. AAA games don't do this because it's a ton of extra work and most players won't even see it. this is only achievable by a creatively independent studio that respects the medium as an art form. if you think in pure bang-for-buck value, it's literally insane to even attempt to do what they did.
