@Gelugon_baat: Sociopathic tendencies? I don't think so. You're thinking of the BBC show Sherlock. The Conan Doyle character, as written, is eccentric, but not a sociopath. He doesn't have Asperger syndrome either.
Can we call time out on the over sexy pin-up costumes for female video game characters in these types of game? If I was a see a bunch of guys control a female avatar dressed in underwear,, I can go on Second Life.
I don't put much stock in this review. And I don't see how wandering around the streets of London is a negative thing, even if it doesn't directly advance the story.
Also, you gave some descriptions in the review that are a bit spoilery. You could have been more vague with some of the details. Bar fight in the third episode?? Chase in the woods?? description of a puzzle?? Come on! I don't want to know these things! I want to experience them!
In any event, I'm really looking forward to playing this game. Even if it's less than perfect. And Frogwares has been improving their Sherlock Holmes games with each release. Outside of any story choices, I can't imagine this is a step backwards.
