User Rating: 6.5 | The Longest Journey PC
I read all the awesome reviews of this game. I love adventure games. I have played all the Monkey Island games, Grim Fandango, Space Quest, King's Quest, Quest for Glory, Phantasmagoria, The Dig, Legend of Kyrandia, etc. Even the recent ones like Still Life and all.

I loved the graphics in this game. The length of the plot and the nice twists and the puzzles lent themselves to the furthering of the story. The Characters were well developed and the layers of complexity showed a lot of thought and time and work. Good job.

What I didn't like. The language was extremely foul and often excessive. I felt that at times, characters were cursing just for the sake of it. There were also frequent political and religious commentaries that just jerked me out of the game like a slap in the face. Unnecessary and frustrating to the otherwise beautiful work done here.

That affected my overall enjoyment of the game and I have to lower the rating and call the game "disappointing". I know many will disagree with me, but this is about my opinion. So throw that into the mix before you decide to buy/play this game.
