    It was one of the first titles of this genre on PC, it’s the work of one fucking person, it’s afaik the first title that focused for the NPC stories on a broad emotional range, the price of the game remained relatively low through all this and even though the game released 9 years ago it’s still maintained and updated for free and on a regular base. Last but not least there is an awesome modding community as well.

    Saying there’s nothing concerned ape or SDV in general are exceptionally good at, is definitely not true. It can be not you cup of tea, that’s fine, but I play a fuckton of games and none deliver a comparable product support, game development over time and inclusion of the community. And that’s what people love about this game.

      The solo aspect is honestly really impressive. I’ve done my fair share of game dev and tried all sorts of roles. I am definitely not a jack of all trades though. I cannot for the life of me understand music. Last time I tried music, I made a 10s long audio that sounded mediocre and doesn’t even loop properly.
