I dunno, I REALLY enjoyed this game. The setting/aesthetics were quite nice (pitch me a decent movie set in this era or earlier 20th century and I'll dive right in), and the sleuthing scratched a lovely little itch :v: The music was also amazing. The Title-screen music? Awesome.

Is it a game for everyone? No, definitely not. But I liked Shenmue's slow pacing, so my enjoyment of detective-like games is already off-kilter from the norm.

This was my experience as well. I can definitely see why people would be disappointed, and it's not a perfect game, but I thought it was fantastic overall. Loved the post-war atmosphere and the investigating was fun. Honestly, I thought the little shootout things were probably the weakest part, but it's not even necessary to do those and they're a small part of the overall game.
