      The "philosophical" commentary is absolutely pretentious and has almost nothing to do with the game itself or arrives at any interesting points, but even so that hardly detracts from the game at all, just don't play the audio tapes if you don't want to.

      Imo it's a beautiful game with some initially interesting puzzles, but it ultimately couldn't solve one of the more compelling puzzles in games, which is how to harmonize narrative & gameplay. I'd be willing to bet Baba Is You may do a better job at that, and while not quite a puzzle game, I know Outer Wilds pulls it off.

      Their opinion is a crap opinion.
      Also I don't really think The Witness failed to "harmonize narrative & gameplay", there just isn't really any narrative, and it's fine like that, _some_ of the audio tapes do try to relate to the game's themes but I'd hardly call that the narrative of the game.

Especially where he calls the books "nerd shit" but with the book of line puzzles for kids he says "now that's a book", making fun of how Johnathan Blow seemingly sees The Witness as this artistic masterpiece and such a high brow work of fiction when it's mostly just line puzzles.

It does want you to take a more meditative approach to playing, but it really doesn't force you into one.

      @@DemonixTB I disagree personally. Don't get me wrong, I don't need my hand to be held, but a big problem with the game is also, fittingly enough given the theme of the game, getting the perspective of the devs. Now the puzzles themselves aren't the problem, but a common complaint I've seen in the game is that its difficult get the gimmick of each section of puzzles. Some are easy like the tree with the apple, but others like the bird chirps or the sonar are so hard to guess what the puzzle meant.
      Same with the slow bits, you know that something is there but you don't know where and if you miss it, you have to painstakingly go through the entire slow ride again. The art, theming, and even some of the puzzles are pretty good. And I don't fault those that enjoy it because there are things to enjoy. But this game has some bullshit and it purposely skips out on several Quality of Life mechanics for the sake of its "Art." And I hated that running "gag" of the developer where he wastes a real life hour of my life to do nothing but wait. It was bullshit in Braid, and its bullshit here.
      It does not respect my time.
