Probably the only real downside to this game is how empty you feel once you've completed it. You just want so much more because each character is so beautifully crafted and once it's over you don't want to let go. It almost brought me to tears when the game was finished and I saw all the pictures I had taken. This game just brings out your raw emotions in such an amazing way. Now all I want to do is go to Shoshone to meet Delilah and Henry.

[@GlorpShittoGunkleboosters]

"how empty you feel when you finish it" that's just fax

It’s the feeling that makes you want to replay a game over and over again with the false hope that maybe something will change eventually, just leaves you wondering what would have happened if things were different story wise

[@coreyschmidt1720]

I absolutely loved this game. I don’t want to spoil anything but the story/gameplay combo is so good. I was able to finish the game in one day (about 5-6hrs). If you looking for a good mystery/adventure game for cheap, then this is definitely worth your money.

[@kelliegoucher3605]

The story carries the boring and repetitive game play. You go somewhere across the map head back to tower do it again and they just shove little bits of interesting story to push you along the boring gameplay 3/10 not fun game but fun to watch someone play it.

A really enjoyable experience. Firewatch has a run toggle (which I love to see in games) and I almost never used it. Aside from the few times where the story really put me into "oh shit, gotta go" mode, I spent the majority of it just walking and enjoying the scenery.

[@ShiverMeTimbers70]

finished it today in one sitting, the story is really engaging and kept me on the edge of my seat for most of the playthrough. some of the navigation in the woods is challenging, which is pretty much the only aspect of the game that poses any "gameplay" obstacles. the frame rate is really unstable though, and there are bugs. i even happened to lose progress on a chapter due to a freeze up. that aside, this game is highly recommended.

[@angus5822]

The Journey is more beautiful than the destination, and this journey was truly amazing. The audio and visuals are soothing. There is a deeper meaning to this game, it's not what it looks like, the real story requires a mature audience. 9/10

I played this game in one sitting, 10/10 got me caught up in the story

[@gekkemanoppaard4066]

i played the game without watching other videos or get information about the game. I experienced the game for my self, it was a really good looking game with a great story and it was cheap.

[@MBSMythic]

Just beat it my thoughts: SPIOLERS! Decent game, wait till it's around $10 on sale though. The story offers alot of great moments and has made me feel a certain way of "Oh shit!" that no other game has quite offered me before. The dialogue feels very natural and feels very real, on par with any triple A game on the market, graphics are also awesome. my problems are that i personally was expecting a murder mystery that involved being trapped in the woods with some sort of axe murdering psycho. and thats exactly how it felt... until the last 15 minutes of the game.... *SPIOLERS START HERE* Both missing "Victims" turn out to be completely fine and just winded up drunk stealing a tractor. The main antagonist turns out to be Ned, who now just aimlessly fucks with you the whole game because he got his son(Brian) killed in a climbing accident. the spy camp is never quite explained, and neither is the overhead phone call in the beginning(Which i'm now assuming is just D's boyfriend Javier), and D pretty much ditches out at the end, even if you spent the whole game romancing her and no matter how hard you ask her to wait she just says "Sorry i gotta go" because waiting 10 minutes was too much to ask for someone who spent an entire summer talking to her.this feeling would equate to spending 90 dollars on a date and the girl saying "Well that was fun, but i got to go home and get some sleep. My boyfriends picking me up tomorrow morning!". And you never see D and the only other real modeled character that isn't just a blacked out figure is just a firefighter that picks you up at the end in a helicopter

[@Mr44andMore]

That camp was for tracking bears

[@MBSMythic]

Mr44andMore Really? that makes sense. Still very disappointing though. I'll probably end up picking it up for a replay a couple months from now when i forget about it. Though i do got to say it's quite suspicious that the story is ends up being just above the refund timer by about 20 - 40 minutes if mildy rushed. idk might just be me

[@hectorf.8123]

It is still 20 bucks. I just bought it😂

[@Project_2501]

Just played it for the first time since it came out and I am amazed! - great story - great wrtiting - deep characters - sensitive topics, approached beautifully and bittersweet while avoiding to get cheesy - beleavable but mysterious while never going over the top - no super natural things involved - great arches in every regard (be it the story or the characters themselves) - art style aged very well and graphics don't feel outdated after 7 years - free from p0l1t1c4l views, p4rt1s4n 0p1n10ns and 1d30l0gy (I include and c3ns0r this here for a very good reason) - no gunf1ght, no c0mb4t, no riddles - intelligent freedom of choice that influences the story path I loved it and replayed it several times. Well worth the money!

[@johnnavarre2384]

Spoiler Alert: I personally loved this game. I haven't had a good, immersive game in a long time and I really felt connected to Henry. Everyone complains about the ending, but I loved it. The whole game was an emotional ride, starting with depressing you with the backstory, a past you want to escape from for a bit. Then the isolation becomes enjoyable as you have someone new to talk to, and spend a lot of time joking with since she's the only one you have. As things progress, paranoia sets in as it seems like you're a test subject to some grand conspiracy. But in the end, there's no conspiracy. You were just the victim of a grieving hermit who didn't know what to do with himself but to watch you. As Henry explains this to Delilah, his voice isn't relieved or angry, but disappointed. They really played us and then the abrupt ending was honestly great. Here you are, spending so much time with yourself in a beautiful setting, all the time you wanted, and a personal adventure, and just like that, it's over and you're forced to go back to what you were escaping from

[@losthiker7007]

Fun fact… if you just stand there for 2 minutes at the end of the game the helicopter leaves without you. Not sure what happens (the game just ends yoire just still there) but it adds yet another layer to an interesting ending to say the least.

[@Monkeycow]

Okay let me start by saying, turn the lights off, make sure you have good headphones, don't talk to anyone. IMMERSE yourself into this game and you WILL be amazed. This game is all about first experience. The story is so interesting and mysterious. Yes the stroy won't blow you away, but it will have you question your morals and keep you wanting to journey deeper and deeper into the forest that's in this story(See what I did there). The voice acting is on point. Both characters sound convincing in their journey of building of recognition of each other, and I applaud the voice actors on their work. The pacing is all great and my playthrough took about 4 hours. Now I will say that the game doesn't seem much for replay value although I heard something about alternate endings, but don't quote me on that. Overall I give the game a 9/10 because it's interesting story, beautiful art, ambient sounds, and mostly gentle pacing that kept me happy the whole way. - My review on steam

Strange... Once I found Brian's bodies I thought Ned and her were working together... But no... Nothing happened... Kind of meh to me... Completly destroyed the "conspiration" atmosphere the game was taking...

Bought this yesterday, and in that time it became my favorite game. The art style is breath taking and the story itself could contend with a big budget Hollywood film.

[@deputydang8291]

Austin Gomm yeah it's awesome man but when you finish you have to wait until you forgot everything to play again.

[@petevegas3274]

should I buy this game for $8 on PS4?

[@cardosoexotics]

Petros K yes

[@JesusWillSaveYou]

I LOVE this game. I beat it in 1 sitting because I just had to find out what the hell was going on. Phenomenal storytelling. Will be keeping my eye out for any titles from this company from now on.

[@madafakajonz2159]

well i was going to buy it but not anymore thanks to Sean and his tweets

[@zereko8638]

These are the games that bring us to our knees...

[@SnowWalker1]

To me the radio is annoying. I'll hold shift and read the various replies I can make but sometimes, by the time I'm ready to choose, the replies all cancel out without giving you another shot at replying to Delila. Also if she begins to talk while I'm choosing replies, they also cancel out. Just really bugged me. I didn't do it wrong either.

[@smithly-fgc]

I absolutely loved this game... One of the best games I've ever played.

[@siegfried692]

FALCON ! Do a face reveal !!! :P

[@cianbroderick4145]

I've been waiting for this game for a while now and I waited all day for it to come on to the ps store. As soon as I reached the menu the beauty of the game became apparent. The opening also wet my eyes a little. I haven't finished this game yet but this review definitely conveys how I felt with around my first hour into playing the game.

[@aFewBitsShort]

Game is beautiful and immersive but is essentially a walking sim and your decisions don't affect the story (not even in the way that the decisions in a telltale game affect the story for at least 5 mins before reverting back to the main plot). The plot twist is not really one and just a let down. And the game is only 2 hrs long. Would be nice if this was an open world..

[@tmsphere]

Don't you get it? EVERYONE and I mean EVERYONE was expecting a big bad monsterfight plot twist with Delilah plotting to kill Henry EVERYONE its the most tired obnoxious thing they could have ever done to the plot..

[@dragonconcertgaming4395]

You two are idiots, this is simply good story telling of how people live in the real world it sets you off to fly into space with conspiracies then grounds you by the finale. It's am amazing story

[@MinersHardcoreNL]

best dialogue ever in a game hands down

[@UnoMeeh]

The story to this game was do incredibly anticlimactic. i was so hooked the whole game but the story just ended so bland to me

[@Ceverianist]

This game costs as much as a candy bar and kept me on the edge of my seat wide-eyed for like 5 hours. I still think about it frequently 5 years later. Just buy it.

[@mustie3492]

Xbox or Ps4 like for ps and comment Xbox

[@SNAKE.LOVER.69]

Both

[@Muzcroft]

Xbox ps:(I don't care who hates on me lets all be friends there basically the same with a few differences but the major one for me is the controller)

[@mustie3492]

+British killer ur a good person but some fanboys are gonna be pissed

[@mongocom1735]

Ps4 because you are far away from microshit

[@Sirbu21]

loved the story, loved the gameplay. just AWESOME. people who dislike this game are to fixated on the idea of a game. I mean this is te closest thing to an interactive movie that i have played/watched EVER and it was great. like you said "Thank you Campo Santo", indeed thank you :)

[@djrollerx81]

I have played through this entire game, and I gotta say...I want my money back. Watch this and a couple more videos on KZbin and you get the whole game. Seriously. Like a bad movie, the game previews give you the whole story minus the anti-climactic and unsatisfying ending. I completed it in 3 hours, and other people on Steam claimed to have finished it in even less. It's basically a demo game that could have been really epic, but it feels like Campo Santo just wanted to cash in on a good idea without trying too hard. In it's current state, at nearly $20, this game is an absolute ripoff. Don't get me wrong, the visuals are stunning and the dialogue is excellent, but that's really it. The choices you make in the game have no effect on the outcome and the story ends abruptly with lots of loose ends. The game builds up the mystery only to leave you saying "That's it?!" at the end. There isn't some conspiracy and you don't get the girl. There's absolutely no replay value, as you can't just wander the game world and play around or do mini quests. Once the main story is over, the game is useless. I now have a $20 game in my library that I have no intention of ever playing again. Spend your money elsewhere.

[@SunnyApples]

+Randall Woody I agree. I didn't like the game at all. Like you said, anti-climactic.

[@seiso5180]

+Randall Woody completely agree

[@Yarrownew9759]

+Randall Woody It felt totally unfinished. Like it had the foundations of a good game.... but then they just got lazy and stopped at the foundation level and never actually built the awesome game it could've been. When there aren't any walking/hiking/footstep sounds in a "walking simulator," you know you're off to a pretty bad start. I wish I had waited a few days before buying this game. Stupid IGN 9.3 review. LIAR!

[@djrollerx81]

Amamalian Yup. It had the potential to be GOTY, but it really just fell flat. I can imagine a ton of ways to make this game so much better, so I find it hard to believe no one at Campo Santo could think of a better game than this. It has to be related to time, effort, money/budget, or perhaps all of the above.

[@mrgirraffe4307]

I agree completely

[@too-bright]

This is my favorite game I've ever played for some reason, and I've been playing video games since like 2000

[@chiefsosapepe]

don't buy the game, just watch the gameplay and save your money.

[@Yarrownew9759]

+chief “sosa” pepe I totally agree!

[@chiefsosapepe]

Amamalian is that your dog?

[@Yarrownew9759]

+chief “sosa” pepe Yeah, but unfortunately we had to put him down last October due to bone cancer. :( He was one of the best dogs ever!

[@Yarrownew9759]

+Fredson. Thanks, I'm alright, he was gettin' old, and it was just his time. I feel like he had a good life though, we went hiking and backpacking more times than I can count :) He loved being outside. I still have my other dog to go hiking with, thankfully.

[@chiefsosapepe]

Amamalian R.I.P dog

[@unclesaladbar9609]

The game hit different, great concept, intriguing, different, ominous, love it

[@TheCR04]

i didnt like it. got a refund.

[@chriswhite1677]

Fantastic game. I'm in the final 10 minutes of it now. One of the best I've ever played.

[@sheep_gaming5970]

It's a 90 minute game

[@JoeWuhPuh]

It's $20 and still has more valued content than Star Wars Battlefront

[@nielskaspers521]

Been playing for 3 hours now so not rly

[@JoeWuhPuh]

+Terror Owl how about yes?

[@bencornell8300]

+Terror Owl joe wilson is right

[@domandriacchi9082]

My decision to purchase Firewatch or not, was in no way influenced by your video. Thumb up, because I love this channel

[@esbatmusic6119]

Shouldn't have bought this. Story lacks...around 70% of the game. BEWARE.

[@iNecroGaming]

And isn't it only like 4 hours?

[@augustinr.3662]

+iNecroGaming And isn't it only like 20 dollars?

[@m9gam]

+TheMinecraftRepublic Well, I can get battlefield 4 for 10 so...

[@augustinr.3662]

+m9gam But isn't battlefield a more multiplayer oriented game, you can't compare a shooter with a story-drive game... A lot of the money that went into the development of this game was used for the creation of a compelling story that is well-executed at all moments and the graphics.

[@m9gam]

TheMinecraftRepublic That wasn't my point. The point is that for 10 dollars, you can get a game worth hundreds of hours.

[@dirtdirtdirtiest9607]

been stoked about this game for about 5 months and purchased it on steam a week before it came out for $17 bucks (was so hyped I was prepared to pay twice that) and I can honestly say it was everything I had hoped. played it in two sittings (4 hours total) and I can only imagine how much better one sitting would be. I agree for the most part of this overview of it, however any feelings or open questions I have left keep me wanting more, and I know there won't be more, makes me think about it and appreciate it so muchcmore. so I'm going to buy every game Campo Santo releases to hopefully get that feeling again. I love this game and am so happy it lived up to my expectations, the game industry really needs a breath of fresh air that is Fire Watch.

[@chetkirby8675]

I think the coolest part about the New Deal art style is that the Civilian Conservation Corps was a New Deal program and they built a ton of fire lookouts out west

[@meky_1516]

I got it on my switch to help me cope and it's just, absolutely stunning, im going to get my mom to play it, because she would love it.

[@Hawkguy327]

Was JACKED about this game and I was 100% satisfied with how it turned out. I haven't been so invested with a story in a game since probably Alan Wake. Absolutely loved every moment.

[@nicholasjoee]

Playing this game for free in 2022 on game pass. Awesome game

[@abhishekvaid8103]

firewatch is a masterpiece from graphics to story is no less than a good classic and the graphics are a mind blowing color world where u would love to step in.

[@ChandlerC11]

I finally got around to finishing the game not realizing when I stopped last time I was already on day 79... It is in my top 5 most enjoyable games I've ever played, for sure. If you haven't played it yet, I 100% recommend it to everyone.

[@ShaneC2788]

Just finished it and really liked it. will be my indie game of the year for sure

[@jasonck9635]

Your video def sold me on wanting to play this game , I love all types of games , and especially games that do things differently and I’m fine with just a narrative driven story and the art style seems immersive and appealing to me as well , I will def give this game a try and thanks for convincing me ! Great job 🙌

[@willd1795]

this game is beautiful and a peaceful yet not peaceful vibe. such a rare vibe you get.

[@paulandrewdix5617]

My favourite game of all time, best voice acting/script you'll ever hear
