I'm apparently going to try to repair a structure or something, I don't know. They might have explained it, but I don't care. I'm actually angry that you're enjoying this game, because so far this is the worst game I've ever played in my life.

You know, it's like when you make a perfect cake with the right amount of cream and nuts. And everybody goes crazy about it and says "wow, this cream is great, and nuts are cool too", and cake becomes a huge hit. And then you have to do another one, and decide: "They liked cream and nuts. So, I will make a new one with even MORE cream and even MORE nuts".

It doesn't work that way. It becomes something overly nostalgic and worse in general. It's not THAT thing, and not something new either. It's something in between, and it leaves you feeling lied to.
The story is rich, but it is so similar to P:T!

You are kind of immortal. Again. You don't remember a thing. Again. You have no name. Again. Some shadowy thing hunts you. Again. You remember stuff about your past life during the game. Again. You have a tattoo and it matters! Again! "Crucial intriguing question" is being asked in the game. Again!

Like a rock band that copies your favourite rock band. You listen, it's good, but meh, you already heard it. WHY?! Why do that? Do your own thing!! Come up with something new! Story in P:T was so great because it was fresh, new, intricate, soulful. Now it is intricate, but not fresh nor new.

The game feels like a museum. Things you encounter in the game are cool, but they somehow do not add up together, do not create the World. People are standing there waiting for you to talk to them and to tell you amazing things. Strange objects seem like placed there for your amusement. It's bad for immersion. It's TOO much. In P:T the world seemed alive, because the storytelling was balanced (except in the end).
