There is quite a lot of aimless and boring wandering around and backtracking while not offering all that much more interactivity than Dear Esther. Together with What Remains of Edith Finch they rank high in my all time favorite and most memorable games.īut I'm going against the crowd here and do not recommend The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, especially after what you had written earlier.Įthan Carter's story is already weaker than that of Firewatch or Edith Finch, but the story telling is much worse.
Just like you I was blown away by Firewatch. On that note, do you have any similar games from the past decade? I like a good, not-too-long story but not exactly walking simulators that much (I tried Night in the Woods and I can't bring myself to just walk and read the entire game) I finished it a few days ago and could honestly talk about it for hours, I was really pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this game. It's also accompanied by a banger story, which, by focused on mostly Delilah and Henry, develops these characters in an amazing way. While the game still is a glorified walking sim, its gameplay loop of essentially walking the same grounds, but with ropes, axes and other upgrades with your tower serving as the center piece of the whole forest - it's done amazingly. I generaly hate walking simulators, as they use their genre as an excuse for not investing enough time in gameplay, but Firewatch was just such a breath of fresh air. I only recently got my hands on a gaming-capable PC, and have been playing through some gems of the last decade.
