SOMA: made it to the end

I finally finished playing SOMA! Took me much longer than expected, about/almost 17 hours (I left it running while paused sometimes so idk), but I did most times try to find as much of the story as I could. I didn't get all the answers in the end that I'd hoped for but the ending was still satisfying despite the open questions, and it'll probably take me a few more days at least to think it all over.

( Spoilers )

I'm glad I played this game, and almost entirely without spoilers too (I didn't even watch the trailer.) I enjoyed it a lot, and it also made me more willing to give other horror games a try. (Inscryption sounds intriguing...) I'll most likely play it again in Safe = Story Mode eventually, not sure how soon. In the meantime I look forward to looking at the extra materials and resources etc. online. I already found a helpful timeline.

I've also decided that I won't start playing another new game this month, there's too much to do. (Even though there's so many games I already own that I want to play… still no time machine though.) I'm so busy with work that I've had barely any time (or more accurately, brain/energy) for uni or even Christmas preparations. At least I managed to finish a second draft version of my Yuletide fic that I'm quite happy with.
