EmP's Dreamfall Chapters: Book One - Reborn review

I really want to play this. I was a huge Longest Journey fan (and lesser fan of Dreamfall) and I do believe I get some kind of free access for having helped fund this one.

I still openly adore Dreamfall. It made some stupid choices to try and appeal to the fabled 'wider audience' by dropping in clumsy and stupid stealth and combat sections, but that it opened up TLJ's world to exploration and then had the nerve to beat it hands down in pure storytelling go a long way to righting those wrongs. The whole Faith hook -- especially the last third of it -- still stands as one of the brightest moments in gaming for me.

Oh, man. I went and got the Special Edition, because I'm stupid.

The Special edition of what? I am confused -- this is confusing.

(welcome back!)

You didn't know? Steam was selling a Dreamfall Chapters "Special Edition" that includes the soundtrack, desktop wallpapers, and some other stuff.

And I was like, "Yeah! Take my money."

I feel like basically all they need to do is to avoid music puzzles or rubber ducky shenanigans and the game'll be awesome.

Oh man, that music puzzle can rot in hell. I had managed to forget that existed, and now hate you a little for reminding me.

There's actually a hidden poster in the game's hub that teases the ducky.
