I really liked The Longest Journey and I could potentially like Dreamfall. Several hours into it, I realized I wasn’t up for more drawn out cut scenes punctuated by boring puzzles.
I did realize something though: I tend to prefer adventure games featuring a female protagonist as they tend to offer a wider range of dramatic choices and explore the character a lot more. Cyberia is a good example of that.

Yeah, what a big disappointment Dreamfall was. Cruddy tacked-on combat and stealth mechanics, characters whose reappearance in the sequel seemed pointless — and count yourself lucky you didn’t finish. You got to miss the ten-minute non-interactive ending complete with about a dozen plot threads left unresolved. Talk about an unfinished game.
