Obviously I tried all the buttons and nothing changed my run speed, so I assumed there wasn't one.

I got this for free with PS+, and I'm playing this now. I'm about four hours in, and I've just realised there's a run button - which I really, really wish I'd known all along. Hold down R2, movement fans. |

Okay, managed that. Although, the local village garage sold unleaded petrol. Seems Unlikely. Even More unlikely was the pub had a curry night. Shropshire! |

Although sometimes it's "find the sparkleberry", because the stupid thing has fucked off and you have no idea where to go next. |

Of course, you can manage to ignore the ball and go off on your own and manage to miss out on the plot. As I managed to in the first area, expecting it to be less linear, and to actually have to find clues and pieve things together. |

I can see that. I was ready to give it up in the first village, but I'm glad I didn't. I might have felt differently if I'd paid money for it wait a minute it's not on Steam! It's a Playstation exclusive. |

I think you have to put yourself in the correct frame of mind and give yourself over to it. I started it and stopped pretty sharpish because I thought it would be a quick game to blast through, before I moved onto the next game. Therefore its sedate pace grew increasingly frustrating and I decided I couldn't be arsed with it. I think if I'd allow myself to just go with the flow then I'd have loved it. |

I'd give it a go. It's non-taxing and you can get through it in around five hours (probably less if you know about the run button (R2!)), and it's lovely to look at and listen to. |

I think if it were VR, it'd be awesome because the world design is great, and the slow pace more resembles a correct pace for VR than any typical first person thing. Everything else though... |

Yeah, it's a bunch of arse. Maybe it's because I live in Shropshire so I can see that kinda shit (magic sparkle guffs and world-ending events notwithstanding) just by going outside, I don't know. |

I enjoyed it, like I mentioned elsewhere, just wandering about all over the place and finding all the little story snippets. Very relaxing. And I loved the music. |

| Post subject: | Re: Everybody's Gone To The Rapture |
I genuinely don't think I've noticed the music. It Is lovely to look at. I am a bit disappointed to hear that there is a linear story per person, I was just wandering about enjoying it, but if I've missed important bits, I'm not sure I can be assessed to replay. |
