the long journey attempt to return to the root of the adventure game genre and do manage to do a half decent job . the game story combine element of science fiction and fantasy to create it own interesting universe but one still heavily reliant on a number of clichés . the main character be alright but not stellar by any mean . the game use 3d character model against pre render background . the model be alright if low poly and the background be rather stun . however the combination of the two be not seamless or even very clean for that matter . also some of the character animation be just lack in any kind of depth . on the whole i hat the pre render cut scene which in my view be just plain ugly . audio wise the game be very competent and the voice cast be nice and memorable . the soundtrack be appropriate but not particularly great . one of the most annoying aspect of this game be the insane amount of dialogue that one have to bare . if this wasn not bad enough much of the dialogue doesn not really have to do with anything relevant so skip a piece here and there undoubtedly will not hinder your game experience to a great degree . the main character also doesn not say anything relevant for much of the game . run to a walkthrough be hardly uncommon with adventure game but thanks to the utter lack of information in the game itself and this tend to happen with long journey a lot more than it should . additionally the skip feature be also annoy since it not only skips action but dialogue as well and the feature should have be implement a lot well . in all and the long journey be not a stand out game in the genre . it an okay adventure with a fairly good plot and but have enough irks to make me not want to even bother with the sequel .
