The two most commonly asked about titles are Fez and Limbo. I couldn’t finish Fez because of my epilepsy, so Limbo is the only one I’m really qualified to speak of. But seriously, it’s like a daily thing. “What did you think of Limbo?” As if Limbo is the be-all, end-all of console-based indies.” […]

I love those artsy-fartsy games that leave themselves open to player interpretation, I really do. But Limbo… I couldn’t force myself to play the other half. I was bored, the story was non-existent. Pretty much like you said, it offered nothing (or not enough) building blocks to build some enticing interpretation out of it.

I appreciate the game’s aesthetic value, but that’s about it.

It did cure my hiccups twice though.

Limbo is a platformer with a visual hook that doesn’t last long. I was hoping to learn at the end I killed all the children and this was my hell. Or that I was yet another victim of a child killing mass murder. Something. Anything. Not saying every game has to tie it all up in a neat bow but Limbo feels like some one just said “hey what if we don’t bother and call it art?”

After a little sad story called Eternal Darkness (a game that I read so much, that in the end I did not get it, because I knew that the experince that one time might have been, was already gone) spoilers and me dont get along. I want to try the game in the future, so, as fellow latin, I thank you.
