Finished it, I only could say "That's what all the fuss was about?!" at the end.

Seriously, the story is utterly predictable, the controls are so fucking clunky (throughout the whole game I couldn't get used to it, with the characters randomly getting stuck in walls etc., and I was playing on a 360 controller)

I heard opinions that this is a breakthrough in story-telling and a candidate for GOTY Laughing Really?

One thing I could say is that I like the design of the trolls (?)- the ones at the very beginning that you later help out.

I'm with Neon after two hours of playing. It's good and interesting, but I don't see anything special. I had more fun with Bastion for example, much better atmosphere in that one. This game does have some great vista's though.

Finished it, took me close to 4 hours. It was enjoyable, but nothing special. It's basically "Random Shit Happening In Pretty Decors: The Game", nothing is clarified, it's all very shallow. I suppose I had to feel some emotional connection with the characters, but I don't know how that's supposed to happen in a couple of hours with two random kids speaking gibberish.

7/10, looks good, the rest was OK. Worth the time.

Playing this and enjoying it. But yes, its definitely random shit happening in pretty areas. nothing wrong with it Smile

The soundtrack and the scenery are worth dealing with derpy casual puzzle gameplay.

GOTY so far for me. Ok, the puzzles are on the easy side but this one had 3 powerful moments (big spoilers ahead):

Yep the game was surprisingly awesome as an overall experience.

Gameplay was a bit light, and it was short. but I really enjoyed the journey.

Reminded me of the 90's when every game felt unique and adventurous.

I have a problem in the beginning of the game, the part at 05:16 in the TB video above.
No matter what I do, the brothers won't turn that wheel any faster, it literally takes me minutes to lift that cart up... I've tried on controller and keyboard too, I tried turning the analog sticks, but nothing happens... Although I'm really curious how it could be done on a keyboard..

IIRC you have to do "circles" with the analog sticks to do it faster.

you press and hold the use key from each brother , the one of the left turns it counter-clock wise , on the right clock wise

Laughing on pad its press and hold RT and LT then turn left analog counter clock wise the right analog clock wise

Thanks guys but I already tried those methods, and nothing happens. I'm not the only one with this problem.. Guess there is something wrong with the game handling some controllers?
