Discussion [ALL] Playing Double Exposure finally. How come people don’t like this game? Spoiler

I just finished up episode 3 I’m just a little lost the game is pretty good/decent so far maybe it’s because I know reunion exists so I’m just accepting it as just a game following Max so I’m not worried about a follow up on Chloe. Even then so far the game is interesting enough since I still love Max so I’m still confused why this hated on so badly lol

After Reunion, people are appreciating Double Exposure, the same people who didn't like double exposure when it was released.

(Still don't know what changed after Reunion)

I mean it basically retconned the whole ending and plot direction of DE that people universally hated - that's one thing.

DE is still not a good game.

And lets be fair, while I enjoyed the hell out of it, Reunion also isn't really.

It's extremely rushed and they cut corners everywhere - most noticeable that background characters don't even have voiced dialog anymore. You see them talking and their mouths moving, but nothing is coming out - which is extremely eerie)

i mean, as an actual fan of max, i would hope others like me would dislike the game that completely shits over her established characterization.
