It had its flaws, but I definitely enjoyed it for what it was. Though I'm salty that they tied one of the achievements to the shitty shooting mechanics, which means I'll always be one achievement away from full completion.

but doubt and lie are basically the same thing and in some cases you have multiple pieces of evidence for lie but the game only wants you to pick one of them. Hell, there are even cases where you can have a bunch of pieces of evidence for lie but the game insists you ignore all of them and pick doubt.

I'm not sure I'd say it's even that (at least not JUST that) per se, as much as it is that the biggest problem is that you're not entirely sure what any given Truth/Doubt/Lie prompt is necessarily going to refer to (and the Switch re-release changing prompts to "Good Cop/Bad Cop/Accuse" just makes things worse).

What a lot of people miss is that the real dynamic is that you're either accepting what they're saying, questioning what they're saying, or presenting direct proof that they're lying (which is why you need the specific piece of evidence that calls their bluff). But the vagueness of the prompts means you're never entirely sure exactly WHICH aspect of what they're saying you're calling bullshit on, and thus whether or not it's something you have evidence to dispute, or if you have to opt for the more general putting pressure on to force them to trip up. So sometimes you may pick "Lie" because you think you have the evidence to prove something they said wrong, only for Cole to go off on a completely different tangent and address something you DON'T have evidence for.

Plus a lot of people confused "I think they're lying" for the "Lie" option, which caused those people problems. Because THAT'S actually the "Doubt" option. "Lie" is more "I can prove they're lying".
