What it does best
Dense, theatrical prose that rewards deep reading
A cast whose ideals and contradictions stay with you
Revelations that radically reframe the people and conflict
A route structure that makes repetition meaningful
What might put you off
Extremely long, exposition-heavy opening and uneven pacing
A dated and imperfect remaster presentation
The setup
