    Played some FMV games from Wales Interactive and Shapeshifting Detective was the one i enjoyed the most. Good crime thriller atmosphere with (possible) supernatural elements. It does not feel hollow and predetermined (like most other FMV). However in the end you are still left with many unanswered questions, some branches of the story don't lead to anywhere. Needed more meat around the bones. I would have also liked…

    Bored conversations, all you can do is try out all of the character and talked every options. There is no surprise that I try to be fun and adventurous in these two hours, and there is no feedback. From trying to expose yourself or get drunk or try to irritate others, then you get nothing. The dull conversation waste all my patience, and I can't even skip them or making them talk quicker by any chance.
