KO Gaming on INSIDE (Gaming)
I loved INSIDE. I'm not going to describe it at all because what makes it enjoyable is the discovery from moment to moment. Don't read any reviews. You deserve the experience, and I think you'll like it, especially if LIMBO spoke to you.
Someone INSIDE did not speak to was KO Gaming. I'm not going to link to the youtube, but I watched it this weekend after beating the game. He liked the game basically, but toward the end of the review he starts ranting, Angry-Joe-style, about developers not explaining their stories, calling out INSIDE, LIMBO, and Journey for not explaining what the stories were about. Oy vey!
Can you imagine KO Poetry? Hey e.e. cummings, what the hell DOES depend on a red wheelbarrow? Hey Lewis Carroll, I thought you were an English writer. What's with this jibber jabber bullshit?
Sigh.

P.S. I do realize that these games are not for everyone, and that's okay.
I, for one, am sick of indie games (or any game regardless of budget) with obscure stories.
I say there's a fine line between obscure and evocative, but I have no quarrel with your opinion. I can name several that I was disappointed with: Everyone's Gone to the Rapture, Pneuma, and maybe Witness (although I should probably finish it before I pass judgement). The games he mentioned really clicked with me, though, and I wouldn't want them to be any different than they are.
