It seems to think it's smarter than it actually is.
It's a bit pretentious, sure, but I for one found it fascinating way back in the day when it launched - when was that, really, 2011? I can't even remember anymore.
Been playing it again now, and it was pretty fun. Like when the game was new, I found myself wishing that Flying Power would re-charge in a more convenient way inbetween the "gas stations" dotted here and there about the levels than having to rely on companions. It's great when you HAVE a companion, but when you're alone you're ground-bound more than anything else, and that feels a bit odd with a game with flying in it (just like with warlords of draenor, lol...)
I'm also a bit at a loss trying to figure out what the story being told in the end-of-level tapestry really means. I can make my own guesses and interpretations, but it would be nice to read an official re-telling, so that I know what is going on.
Also, who am I? Where did I come from and what am I doing there in all that sand? Who are my people now, and who were we way back when all these ruins were built? There could be entire sequels made to explain all this... A lost opportunity in my view, because the world of Journey is really fascinating in of itself, IMO.
! Gonna download it right now ! Reliving it in 1080p and 60fps should be great, its been a long time since i played it.
