I tried playing this; the point where decided to put it down was after the MC had a novella's worth of thoughts before he'd even had the chance to exit the building you wake up in.

When they release a 'finished therapy' edition, or bat-to-the-back-of-the-head edition, then maybe I'll think about picking it up again; then again the lord of the rings trilogy had less text than DE did just by the time you were done getting something from the bathroom a minute into the game. If someone stuck Harry's head under water he'd still rattle off a full ten volume encyclopedia's worth of text before he blacked out.

It wouldn’t be the same game at all if Harry wasn’t so absolutely neurotic, lol. I get why it not easy to get through, though. I tried starting it like 5 times before burning through the whole game in a week (thanks adhd)

Literally me, it took me two years of starting over to get past the first day. Then I finally burned through it a couple of months ago.
