Looking for some games where it feels like you’re actually trying to solve something with the clues and secrets you uncover. For example, Disco Elysium actually made me feel like a detective despite how wacky and surreal it could be.
I haven’t played LA Noire yet but that’s on my list. Anything else I should check out. TIA!
I wouldn’t rate L.A. Noire too highly, as it’s a weird hybrid between detective game and GTA.
What rubbed me the wrong way was the illusion of choice in side quests (roadside police work) where it seems like it’s always the worst possible outcome. The story, especially the choices my character made (without me having a say in it), wasn’t to my taste either.
