Depersonalizzazione

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Depersonalization absolutely deserves to be played, but you may want to wait until the game is out of early access, which is expected to be around a year from now. Depersonalization is truly one of the strangest and most fascinating games I’ve played this year. It blends pen-and-paper RPG mechanics, anime aesthetics, the Lovecraft mythos, and Chinese philosophy all into a singular package. And that package may have some serious scuffs, but it’s still frankly incredible to behold.

Well, not gonna lie, this game felt like a doozy. But before I go in further detail I gotta say first that this game is still on Early Access, so you're gonna see a few bugs here and there, like some uncomplete animations, some soft locks and so on, but from what I've seen they deal with the bugs fairly quickly when they get reported, so I'm pretty sure by the time they fully launch it, which they say it will be approximately in about a year

At face value, Depersonalization’s aesthetic and general feeling unquestionably reminded me of the many anime visual novel games I’ve played before: the chilling soundtrack, the eerie anime art, the intriguing story elements, and the various choices you are presented in the game. Anime-wise, the art style is a mix of gothic, medieval, and noir, with heavy use of lovecraftian elements. However, behind all that impressive eye-candy is a game that is indeed an example of a true Early Access game, If i’m judging by its heavily unfinished state.
