Reviews for "Why this?"

Music Great; Game Bad.

I thought this was supposed to be an "action-platformer": turns out it's a tedious
"action-walker."

wtf

When you put more work into the badly written story than the game itself, it doesn't turn out well. The story itself is a loose end with no back story and i have no idea what the hell happened. And the gameplay is just bad. The only reason for the jump feature is because there's a part of the map where you can't advance. What's up with the guy walking no matter what anyway?

Garbage.

Well, I've played a lot of pretentious "art" games that get their mileage out of being vague so people can read whatever the hell they want into it. However, this one is by far the worst I've ever come across. The ratings confirm this - usually this tactic wins over most people with pathetic ease, but you've managed to fail to meet even the low, low standards for that type of "game".

The music is good, but since you didn't make it, I don't see any reason to give you any stars.

The only other thing I have to say is that if this is supposed to be a parody of this sort of game, it's a brilliant one and you've gone over my head. I kind of doubt it, though.

How did this game even get popular?

A failed attempt at a "deep and meaningful" emotional "art game".
Honestly, there was no gameplay, no character development, no emotion.
Very cheesy, unclever, unclear and undeveloped.
If you're going to make a game that triggers one's emotions..
You have to first make an emotional connection with the player.
"Guy walks from a graveyard and shoots his wife."
Doesn't exactly suffice.

Music was recycled from another game.
And that was about the only good thing.
This review may seem harsh, but honestly.
I believe that you COULD HAVE made this much better.
Try harder, try again.

100% completion walkthrough.
1. Hold down D and pretend it's an extremely short video with writing that's so juvenile even the title has you thinking "Oh boy, one of THOSE ones".
2. Start the game and then do something else for 40 minutes.

This game deserves nothing positive.
