Yes, 2 and a half years later, we get the deserved FAR sequel, with more gimmicks, more world-building (even though some doesn't make sense) and a much more satisfying ending to bookend these two relaxing games!
Truly a masterpiece! I really liked the first game, but this one was amazing. The soundtrack and art were just surreal and made the experience completely worth the trip. The ship is really cool to use and i'm glad that there is more control over the vehicle than the first one, however it's a bit hard to keep track of everything. While this game is not for everyone, I personally had fun from start to finish.
FAR: Changing tides, compared to its previous entry, increases in complexity through adding more components to manage on your ship. While this makes the game more engaging, the atmosphere of the game suffers slightly. I only say slightly, as there were many instances where the game would allow you to put your sail up, and enjoy the scenery after a session of puzzling. This is accompanied by an unforgettable soundtrack, that you would be humming even after you put down the controller.
Overall, I recommend this game if you have an afternoon to spare. The game is 4 hours in run time, and, although it is on the more expensive side, it is a solid experience.
Got bored. Just play the first game. It's much better.
It seems everything from the first game is reused but is made less dramatic, more mundane and more tedious.
The scenery or the music does not impress any more and I could not bother trying to connect with the unengaging story.
