Let’s Play The Chinese Room’s Dear Esther (Steam)

The first time I played this, I admit I didn’t really appreciate what all the game was trying to tell and found it rather confusing because I had no idea what was going on at all. This time around, I decided to play the Landmark Edition with the developer comments along the way, listening to the backstory and the things the developers did to create the game from just a simple Half-Life 2 mod into something pretty awesome, and the first ever ‘walking simulator’ ever billed in video gaming. The story itself is up to a lot of interpretation, which can be good for each player to decides to take the trip and walk through the island to the end of the realization waiting at the top of the radio tower.
