Blacksad - Under the Skin (Xbox One)

As the title says, you basically play an older, furry version of Batman in the 80's or so (so no fancy hi-tech gadgets) just using your detective skills to bring down and/or commit crime in a fantastic and engaging Telltale-esque choose-your-own-adventure storyline with multiple endings. Personally I give it a 9/10. I literally spent an entire day playing it from start to finish because I was too engaged to put it down. I love the characters, the atmosphere, the many choices, etc. I only have two critiques: 1. A couple moments are illogical. The very last choice of the game, for example, is very unclear. It gives you a choice between two seemingly small, meaningless dialogue options that end up having very big and dramatic consequences. There is also an instance where you can opt to save a life, then the game gives you an illogical QTE which, if failed, changes your choice to no. 2. Warehouse segment is poorly explained and really long/boring. Find the forklift. You're welcome.

The game is a little buggy, but is certainly playable. Strong Telltale vibes and longer than I expected. Get it on sale if you're a fan of the genre.

When I first purchased this game for Xbox One, I was enjoying myself at first. Then came the game freezes, then the corrupted saves. Eventually I wasn't even able to play past a loading screen. With the updated game for Series X/S they expect me to pay for the same game that I already own that I never got to finish because they refused to fix it in the first place!

I waited to play, experienced 0 bugs or lag, it is a solid title i have no experience with in its lore. I want a sequel honestly and feel some people gave this gem a raw deal that being i would buy this all over again even full price in a heartbeat.

Throughout the story there are gameplay hiccups. The game requires deductions to continue , and small details can be over-looked. After your break into o'leary's warehouse the next scene will be back at the gym. The attacker will end up in the hospital . When i got to the graveyard the game ended. The pop up texture glitches prevented the game to load. I checked the longplay after the Angel statue it was r.ip. Why sell incomplete glitched digital copies?
