    Don't know, le développeur français de chez nous qui ne sait pas faire de jeux, surtout quand ils sont "vidéo" revient avec une daube épisodique dont il a le secret ! c'est une sorte de psychodrame familial à la petite semaine bien niais et ennuyeux, un mélange de telenovela, de "Plus belle la vie" et des "Feux de l'amour" !

    Mais avec une grosse couche de #vivre_ensemble et de    Don't know, le développeur français de chez nous qui ne sait pas faire de jeux, surtout quand ils sont "vidéo" revient avec une daube épisodique dont il a le secret ! c'est une sorte de psychodrame familial à la petite semaine bien niais et ennuyeux, un mélange de telenovela, de "Plus belle la vie" et des "Feux de l'amour" !

    Mais avec une grosse couche de #vivre_ensemble et de trans-quelque chose (aussi) ! c'est en vérité l'équivalent d'un film français intello-bobo standard qui se regarde le nombril en version adulescente avec dialogues lénifiants, choix ridicules et une lenteur à dormir debout... Le "jeu" en tant que tel est à peine et vaguement interactif et les voix sont toujours en anglais... remarquez, ce serait gâché et du temps perdu que de doubler une chienlit pareille en français.

    Graphiquement, ce n'est pas si laid et presque joli mais toujours très lisse, ce qui le met quoi qu'il en soit dans le haut du panier des étrons indés, soit quasiment un étron indé de luxe ! quasiment... ce plumage est en tout cas à l'image du ramage lisse et mièvre, tel un "ça te barbera"... On ne sait pas pourquoi on regarde ça ni pourquoi on "joue" à ça...

    C'est à dormir debout de bêtise et de ridicule pathétique... non, on n'y "joue" déjà plus, on l'a désinstallé rapidos mais une question demeure néanmoins : pourquoi faire un tel jeu de merde ? tell me why...    … Expand

    Incredible in it's boringness. Gets high scores just for including minorities. Please make the stories better or whenever someone see's a game with minorities they'll think it's trash.

    Если после шедевральный первой части и приквела к ней вторая казалась местами слабовата, то эта часть просто позорище, зауши притянутые персонажи с такими же проблемами

    So utterly devoid of anything remotely fun or interesting. This has to be one of the most awful video games ever made - 1 star

    Очень слабый проект. Я не понимаю, как можно было создать такое? Трансгендеры, вы довольны?

    Tell me why does this sh*t exist? Another sh*ty game with agenda. Tlou2 at least had amazing story, visual, sound and gameplay. This trash has nothing at all. Never play this garbage

    There is really nothing outstanding about this game from story to characters to pacing to the dialogue it really is just a bad game with no redeeming factors.

    This game is a story based game with a bad story. A game made for American audiences but it seems the English script can be off at times. The story has cliche story points where story points are just there to fill in time.

    Esto no es un juego, es solo una plataforma progre y política que da verguenza y no tiene nada que ver con los videojuegos

    Primero Sony con TLOU 2 y ahora Microsoft con esta panfleto progre

    Intentando justificar un asesinato de un trans... si fuese un hombre blanco y hetero ni habrían echo el juego, a la cárcel directamente

    VERGUENZA

    Lack of good story, only arrogant dialogue options, boring gameplay where you only have to search for things in an open area. Besides all of this, the game is featuring a lot of politics.

    Pior jogo que já joguei, desenvolvimento extremamente lento, as escolhas não fazem a menor diferença, nem mesmo no final é mais parecido com uma novela em que você escolhe a próxima cena do que um jogo em si, não há jogabilidade é decepcionante

    Worst snoozefest ever! Just imagine being stuck with a bratty, judgemental SJW who turns everything into drawn-out, unskippable virtue signaling lectures.

    When all is said and done, though Tell Me Why doesn’t necessarily disturb the established Dontnod template too much, it executes it well enough that that doesn't ever seem like an issue. Excellent characters, strong writing, and a deeply personal plot help the player connect with the story. In the end, that most criticisms of the game can be boiled down to “I wish I had had more time to spend in its world and with its characters” should, ultimately, be all that really needs to be said about Tell Me Why.

    Tell Me Why tells a compelling story with some of the most memorable characters in videogames of recent years, but the narrative sometimes feels rushed and some of its best moments feel a little bit too short.

    Tell Me Why on Xbox One is DONTNOD's strongest game to date. It is quiet, introspect, mature and superbly written and performed, with visuals that are easy on the eyes - the novel release approach also helps things. There are still some factors holding it back from perfection, but I sincerely hope this is the start of a great partnership between Xbox and DONTNOD, as I feel this game is a perfect example of the type of content Game Pass is perfect for delivering.
