This is one of this games you either like it or you don't. There are a LOT of things that couldve been better, especially the leveling up, but imo thats only a small portion of this game.
Yes this game has a wierd story and it goes like that to the end and beyond.
Yes this games main protagonist is mildly annoying.
Yes a lot does not make any sense.
I actually liked it even because of those reasons. Alex is a stereotypical hipster, all with the monolouging overthinking and being the center of the universe. I loved to hate him for what he is and what kind of anti-main character he makes himself. The story was soo wierd that I wanted to understand everything about this game, why does the screen flash there, why does alex seem to not know or have forgotten alot of things. It makes sense in the end, kinda but you need to accept the game for what it tries to be instead of searching for things to like/dislike.
To be honest after finishing this game on PS4 i bought it on steam a bit later and never touched it again after a while of playing. This is not a game to get back to. This is a game you play for the story and the experience on the way, the memories you get and the love/hate for each of the wierd characters. It is quirky, stupid, random and a lot of nonsense, but this is what i really liked about it.
I recommend it to someone that is open for a random storytelling rpg, that, how idiotic it seems, want to know the end of said story. It is a game that hits you with "Wait, what? Why?" a huge quantity of times.
I wouldnt recommend it to anyone expecting a well rounded RPG (this is more like saturday morning rpg) or a rich epic story (its not witcher, its random but fun nontheless)
