Fun yet slow, Easy with difficult parts, and some bothersome loading times.
After the whole childhood stage the story really expands. The plot includes many emotional extremes that really gets you into it. The artistic videos have a stainglass "church window" style that is depicts the story in an interesting and powerful manner.
The real fun starts once you get into the world which takes an hour or so. This is the point at which all the options open up. This is where the free roam begins with all the experience points, character shaping, new abitlities and so forth. You May complete missions, earning money and renown points or free roam and explore the beautiful environments. You may be a good person and marry beutiful digital women who aren't as well made as the environments or intrude on peoples homes and steal thingsor kill people.
The game has some good music and sound effects. All of the voice overs are decent with some very obnoxious ones.
Overall, this game is satisfying and fun.
