I had high hopes for this after enjoying The Missing Heir when I played it last year. But after playing some of the first chapter it really feels like they deliberately tried to recreate the irritating mechanic where you need to select every dialogue option multiple times that I assumed was a vestige from the original NES game in the remakes. You also often need to hit the "Think" button before being able to advance the dialogue with an NPC so your player character can repeat everything he's just learned to himself in case you were asleep the first time.
It's really disappointing.
The writing seems solid, but I was expecting something that didn't feel trapped by its roots. And with it being as expensive as it is, it's kind of a tough sell for me.
