I dunno, maybe it's just been too long and all the other AA games have stuff like this too that didn't bother me at the time. Maybe other games I have played since then with more legitimate mysteries have made me less tolerant of how drawn out this stuff can be, especially in this particular case where the stakes are SO low. Right now, just going by old memories, I'd say this is probably one of the worst cases in AA as a whole. Not THE worst, of course, but up there.

yeah i had the same feeling. i was like "am i crazy, or are AA games usually more complex than this? like am i just used to the tropes now? is nostalgia clouding my mind?"

but i don't think we're crazy, i think AA games usually are harder. i mean i don't think i had to think longer than a minute for almost any cross-exam or present in the game, and even those cases it wasn't because you have to realize anything clever, it's just a bit unintuitive to know what to present.

it's modern game design streamlining at its absolute peak, holding your hand so you never have to think about anything
