My Week in Gaming 7/28-8/3
I completed this in just a couple days, as it is only about 5 hours long, but that was perfect for me. It told a concise, impactful story that I appreciated. Some of the missions were frustrating due to odd AI. For example, in one mission, I had to follow someone, but there were certain other enemies in the environment that would instantly turn aggressive to me without any cause, making avoiding them very difficult. However, I still recommend this DLC to anyone interested in Assassin's Creed. It's a great little campaign that's not as big of an investment as the 40-50 hours I spent on Black Flag.
Murdered is a good game, and the best and most accurate thing I can say about it is that it is greater than the sum of its parts. I know that gets said a lot, but this is a perfect example of that, because there are a lot of ways this game can be picked apart from some mediocre graphics to bad animations to some bad "stealth" gameplay to some laughable lines and story elements. However, the overall story and basic premise is interesting, and the game is just short enough (about 8 hours) to not overstay its welcome, in my opinion. I enjoyed it, and I'd recommend it to anyone who likes a slower-paced game with an interesting mystery drama with some creepy bits mixed in (not really scary, but creepy).
