Interesting that the Hitman games make you feel like this, I thoroughly enjoyed them because of the ability to replay levels endlessly, which made me feel like I can’t miss anything because I can just start over if I want to try a different approach.

Totally agree on them taking too long and I’ve also found myself being annoyed with Addison quite quickly. The koroks I don’t mind as they offer a different challenge every time and it’s not very relevant to complete them all. But Addison’s tasks are. always. the. same. Boring!

Funny you should mention Disco Elysium and LiS! I loved Life is Strange because it felt very purpose-driven and really led you into a clear direction story-wise. On the other hand, I feel like I’m one of the three people who didn’t bother to finish Disco Elysium :D I tried and tried to like it for more than 15 hours of playtime, but in the end I had to admit that its dialogue is too lengthy and that it felt a little too slow story-wise, for my taste at least!

That’s probably the best way to go about it!
