I never finished The Witness either, but I kinda wished I would have, as the philosophical nature and puzzles were both very engrossing, such a unique take on the "walking simulator" style of game. Granted, it was much more than that, and I'd actually compare it closer to Myst and Obduction than such. The puzzles were repetitive but just incentive enough to be engaging and twisted in just the right way, though they got devilishly difficult later on. Sucks about the motion sickness though. Wonder if there was an .ini swing which could've turned the filter off?
Though, all in all, this was definitely a difficult "separate the art from the artist" scenario.
I figured that was the case, but what's the fun of modding without some screwed up textures, some futzing around with the 254 esp limit, and a couple of annoying CTDs?
