With Girl of Glass, the world is ending, people are dying in mass, so the damage I did to Nola Kent is like…meh, at least you’re alive. In How I Magically Messed Up My Life in Four Freakin’ Days there’s tons of drama and magic and danger, but Bryant’s resilient so I ...
I'm just pointing out the question was "What Video Game Recommendation Was A LIE?". It seems like the people above are also confused. The game never lied to you. GRIS never claimed to be anything else than exactly what your complaint was. I mean I won't buy BF2424 and then make a...
