I don't often find myself playing games for hours and hours and end anymore but I pretty much played through the whole thing a single sitting I was sooooo engaged. I didn't play it until 2023 but it's definitely in my Top 10 games of the 2010's. Such a fresh game.
Suuuuuuuper looking forward to the sequel, besides being more of this type of game, it'll be mimicking the era of internet I grew up with a bit more. GeoCities wasn't foreign to me, there was this one Sonic Adventure 2 site for Chao that I frequented, but I was too young to really appreciate what was going on at the time. It's an era I gained a fondness for over time for sure but I imagine that Dreamsettler will hit a certain nostalgic funny bone in me.
