An Indiana Jones review apology
When Greg and Parris did their Indiana Jones review, I remember they got a bit of slack (Flak* I’m an idiot) as the game generally got rave reviews from everyone else
I started playing at the same time and also thought their review was way off, I was having a great time
Fast forward to now, I’m maybe halfway through (Amazon/Rainforest level) and I haven’t touched it in about 4 weeks and I’m not sure when I’ll bring myself to finish it. Getting in and out of the boat constantly to trek around the rivers is a slog.
I feel like all Greg and Parris issues are finally being felt. The gameplay cycle of ‘sneak up with a shovel/hammer’ has become a bit tedious and that’s 80% of the levels. The puzzles are great, but it feels like they’re the remaining 10-20% of each level.
The open world sections of each level make it harder to continue for me and the linear bits are always the highlight.
TLDR I judged your review too harshly. Story and performances are great, gameplay feels repetitive by the halfway point
