Lacking

I downloaded this 2 weeks ago and am struggling with wanting to play it. Problem is, Im not really drawn into the story. Graphics are aesthetically interesting, yet are plagued by poor camera shots and weak character animation. I find conversations between characters very static and uninspired, lacking in flavor and personality -- the overall game itself lacks life and quickly ends up being a boring and tedious experience as you ,ove from one situation to the next. Copywriting feels like the game wasnt originally written by native english speakers. My suggestion to the game makers: Bring more attention to character motivations and conversations. Have the user move closer to characters when they talk to each other. Work on more dramatic camera angles as events are happening. Figure out a way to add more player involvement throughout the game -- more mini-games, puzzles, things to do. Right now, this game isnt worth my time.
