My big thing: That repeating audio sound was so obnoxious it actually was the thing that stopped me from giving it another try. The other thing is the player has no guidance, which was probably impacted by the dialogue windows being totally unreadable.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Bill Wheatley","author_uid":"1011010","time":"2017-05-04T08:17:28Z","epoch":1493885848,"modified":1493885848,"text":"Yea the audio I'd have tweaked it turned into eventually it was just constantly running.
