Firstly, I did like this game. It looks gorgeous, tension and atmosphere is used effectively but for a pretty predictable storyline. I felt like I wanted and needed more from the way the story was building.
However, the chemistry between all actors is next to none - Troy Baker always kills no matter what kind of role he plays and I just love the dynamic and banter between Jack and Jessica.
Where the game fell short for me was the lack of environments, character(s) needing to walk EVERYWHERE and the over reliance on info dropping through emails/tapes to explain the events leading up to the reveal of the antagonist.
You play as another character halfway through the game but pretty much revisit the environments that you explored previously with Jack as the initial, playable character. It would have been nice to see a lot more areas added when you take over with Jessica as the playable character. The constant walking doesn't really add to the urgency when tensions rise halfway through the game.
