To each their own. I found the Witness to be excruciatingly monotonous, forced and, ultimately, boring.

What did you think of the puzzles?

I enjoyed the Witness for a while but I bounced off it pretty hard in the Mountain. It wasn’t until I watched a let’s play on YouTube that I learned there was a film room, a hidden cave complex under the mountain, a time trial, and other optional secrets. I can absolutely understand a certain type of gamer liking this but for me Talos Principle (both 1 and 2) is peak puzzle genre.

That said I’ll probably buy this game if it comes out next year.
