Remember Me

The Good
The narrative does bright cyberpunk well with a fascinating commentary of identity and life for those who are terminally online as we all are in the 21st century. The scenery is gorgeous. A fresh concept. The memory sequences are fun, though not entirely deep they present a well executed story line that works a little like playing the movie Inception in game form.

The Bad
The combat while mostly good can get a bit repetitive or overly simplistic at times. Dontnod tried a lot of new things and most paid off here IMO. You may disagree though.

The Bottom Line
For a game titled "Remember Me" plenty of people overlooked or forgot about this gem. It is a fantastic game with a fresh cyberpunk world, game play similar to the also great Batman Arkham games, and an intriguing narrative that is only more relevant today than it was nearly a decade ago when first released. It poses some great questions and has a compelling message for those of us increasingly reliant on solutions from big tech, social media, and find ourselves searching for humanity and purpose in our lives.
