So, To The Moon . It is an indie game, about four-five hours long or so and it is a narrative driven interactive story told in the form of an old skool 3rd person adventure / RPG.
Genre does not matter, there is barely any gameplay. Most of the time you are just clicking to get to the next bit of plot.
The game follows two scientists / doctors who work for a special corporation that have developed a machine that allows a patient on their deathbed (as in with only say a day or two to live and death is definitely close) to have their one wish in life granted.
So the one thing they wish they had achieved in their life, but never did for whatever reason. The patient this time is an elderly man named Johnny (John, but prefers Johnny as it makes him feel younger). Some people call him Joey too.
Johnny's wish is to go to the Moon. Neither he, or anyone who lives with him know why.
The two must go back into Johnny's memories, exploring his past and altering events. So that, in a fake version of his life, he would have gone to the Moon. Thus achieve his life's goal and remember it on his deathbed before he dies. So the two only have two days to go into his past, figure why he wants to go to the Moon and alter events so that he actually achieves this.
Well I will stop there, no spoiling anything else. Let's just say Johnny had a hard life.
So the game is about £8 ($11) which might be expensive for an interactive story that is five hours long but I promise it is totally worth it, this is the most well written story in a videogame ever (IMO). There is no voice but the characterization is so good, you will imagine how each character sounds.
It's just a beautiful game, and SO FRIKIN' DEPRESSINGLY SAD! OMG! </3
It's free for 1 hour trial. I bought it as soon as my hour ended as I was so into the story by then, finished it in one sitting lol.

Listen to the beautiful (and equally sad) OST here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Snl67XsI6Is (if you buy it, the proceeds go to charity!)
Well that's about it, just sharing the word on a bloody fantastic game.
. Seriously though I don't think its worth quarreling over a let's player, I think he's annoying at times but he does pull off some funny moments at other times. I've seen too many PewDiePie arguments and they're all pretty pointless, we should just agree to try and accept each other's opinion about him even no matter who started, and no matter the background history of each member. Its just a let's player (Easy for me to say because I'm not a fan of him), but you get my point I presume. I know how it is to be a big fan of something, and I know how it feels when someone insults what I really like, or my opinion, but containing my johnnies is the best way to deal with the situation. Or getting involved in a constructive debate which won't end in a brawl. Don't know if I'm a hypocrite or not, LOL, but that's my opinion on how these things should be handled, I guess.
