Excellent article! I'm pretty sure I'll be picking up the enhanced version when it comes out.

Gday,
Played this game from beginning to end on the uncensored edition... and yeah that street brawler comment about your mother sucking something definitly threw me at first. Great game. lots of situations where you have to choose what you may consider to be the lesser of 2 evils. Depending on your gameplay choices during those moral dillemas....it will effect the game ending. I think there is 3 possible endings that i think depend mainly on who you side with in chapter 3 of it. Couple of nice twists to it as well.
nice writeup on the game. Well done.
Regards,
B

After patching the long load times decreased dramaticly I've personally found. Also I've very rarely suffered a crash. Have currently put the game on hold awaiting the enhanced version. Although, it looks like it's been delayed & released a few more months as opposed to the original release date of May.
Overall the write up you've done is quite well done.

Thanks for the kind words - I tried to request this game from my editor at PC Gamer for review but no luck! Us freelancers are small fry so we rarely get to review anything sizable or noteworthy. 
On a sidenote, can whoever slapped up the article caption on the front-page picture, change it to a more grammatically correct phrasing. That wasn't a quote from my review at all and I would certainly never write "Monster hunting at its most finest." That just sounds sloppy. I'd suggest that someone change it to, "Monster hunting at its finest." That first sentence is an important one and it's a direct reflection of the author which is why someone else should NOT be writing it.

SubGalaxy is the one who did the caption to begin with. Maybe a PM to him?

Nice review Wytey, I'm suprised you are finding time at the moment! 
I loved the game, played through Chapter one......then shelved it to wait for the Enhanced Edition to be released.  |

Great review Wytefang, I have this one sitting on my desk at home, still in the shrink Wrap as I'm waiting for the enhanced edition patch before I start it.
It would be interesting to see an updated review when the enhanced edition finally arrives, if you have the time.
