    Don't bother with the negative reviews.

Truthfully, they would be doing us all a favor if they stayed away from games like Pentiment and stuck to Fortnite or whatever it is that keeps their very short attention span engaged.

    Pentiment is an excellent game for those who love story and character-focused games and don't need things to blow up or attack you every three seconds. If that sounds good to you, then Pentiment is worth your time, especially at its too modest price point. It's the kind of small narrative project long-time Obsidian fans should appreciate, given AAA gaming's limitations.    … Expand

    While not quite a visual novel, and not quite an RPG, Pentiment carves out a nice little niche that shows off the best of both of these genres. With flushed out characters and a well thought out story, Pentiment tells a very unique story that probably wouldn’t have been made without Gamepass. If you’re a fan of shorter, story-based games, do yourself a favor and download Pentiment.

    The is definitely a different type of game. At first glance I thought this looks boring but it's such an easy play through and you begin to follow the story more and more and now I'm sitting at work wondering what will be revealed next because the story telling in the game is incredible. If you play alot of Nintendo games where there's tons of dialog then go for it. You won't be disappointed.

    The game was obviously a labour of love from Obsidian. Every conversation shows a huge amount of historical research behind it, and a lot of care in development of the characters over multiple time periods. Each character has their own background and narrative style which is demonstrated through the different "writing" styles used in conversations. The story is deep, well-written, and novel. And finally special mention for the ASMR experience of quill scratching on parchment whenever you speak to someone!

    Only one thing I disliked - throughout the game your investigation seems very free-form and open to the player's own thoughts. By the end you'll understand that this was a bit of an illusion. Can't say more here without spoilers.

    Great story so far. About halfway through and it keeps surprising me. Mechanically the game is very simple and easy to understand but it’s the narrative flow that keeps this game separate from its action-filled, kill-everything-in-sight contemporaries. This is a thinking man’s game. CoD players, move along..

    Pentiment is a fantastic mix of immersive story telling in tandem with a world that actively reacts to your decision making. It’s delicately wrapped in an atmosphere passionately dripping in character and historical immersion. If you’re a fan of historical games, or classical role playing, you’ll find great fun with this future cult classic.

    Enjoyable game. While the world isn't huge it is an open world, as you're able to go anywhere you please, assuming it's unlocked at that time of day. It took a couple days to complete. And the ending was bittersweet. I enjoyed that you got to personalize your characters through dialog. My only hang up was not knowing upfront which dialogs drove story and which were just informational.

    Pentiment si è dimostrata un'opera d'arte che ha scosso il concetto mainstream di medium videoludico moderno. Gli sviluppatori sono andati completamente contro corrente abbandonado azione, grafica pompata e una storia roboante per dare spazio a una narrazione intima, lenta e dall'ambientazione sopraffine

One interesting thing it does is that, just becauae your background allows a certain action, it does not mean it's the best action. Whereas most RPGs make the unlocked option the best option, think the more recent fallout games. High Science skill in conversation means that option is probably the best, but as mentioned not always the case in Pentiment.

    You play as an artist who is working in an abby and is later tasked with finding a murderer. To investigate you go around asking questions but there is a bit of a time limit so you WILL NOT be able to do everything on your list. Time will pass when you complete a task and the day does have meal times breaking up the day. At those points you must break bread with others in town, who you choose to share a meal with will provide different information as well as let you learn more about the world and the different types of people living there. Forgot to mention, the game starts in 1518 and if you really like history, this should be interesting. The characters are more like real people, just because someone is a part of the church doesnt necessarily make them inherently good or evil.

    From a gameplay perspective, there are a few simple puzzles but mostly you will interact with items or people similar to an old point and click adventure. Since you can't do everything in 1 play through, replaying allows you to get info you didn't have before and learn about other characters.

    I highly recommend.    … Expand

    In Pentiment seguiamo le vicende di un giovanissimo apprendista miniaturista, che per una serie di coincidenze si ritrova a lavorare per l'Abbazia di Tassing sulle Alpi Bavaresi.

    Sperduto in un contesto montano/rurale il giovane Andreas a poco a poco intreccia la sua strada con i vari abitanti del villaggio, ognuno con un carattere ben sviluppato, e al contempo con i fratelli dell'Abbazia che sovrasta il piccolo paesino addensando ombre che col passare delle ore di gioco saranno sempre più persistenti e claustrofobiche.
    Le giornate del nostro protagonista si dividono tra le intense sessioni di lavoro nello Scriptorium dell'Abbazia dove condivide l'antica arte delle miniature con alcuni frati, le ore dei pasti che si rivelano in poco tempo essere il miglior momento per approfondire pettegolezzi, far coincidere i pezzi del puzzle e allo stesso tempo danno modo ad Andreas di rafforzare o far diminuire il rapporto sociale con gli abitanti di Tanning e dell'Abbazia, e le poche ore di sonno che a volte potranno riservare delle chicche preziosissime.
    In questo contesto apparentemente ripetitivo e “normale” succede l'inimmaginabile che scardina definitivamente gli equilibri precari della cittadina. Poco tempo dopo aver fatto la conoscenza del Barone Lorentz, egli viene ritrovato morto nell'Abbazia. Corso per osservare la scena, Andreas si ritrova suo malgrado a dover fare di tutto per scagionare fratello Pietro (colto in “flagrante” sulla scena del delitto).
    Fin da subito la colpevolezza del vecchio frate ci sarà inconsistente. Le condizioni di salute del vecchio e il suo carattere buono e remissivo ci portano a dubitare delle conclusioni del Priore.
    Proprio per poter salvare la vita del caro amico da questo momento Andreas si calerà nei panni di un attento investigatore.
    In men che non si dica la situazione precipita, causa i rapporti di tensione che i cittadini e contadini palesano nei confronti dei Signori e di quei prelati, accusati di essersi insediati in passato “uccidendo” le antiche tradizioni pagane tanto care al volgo e allo stesso tempo di aver sempre più inasprito le leggi e le tasse, peggiorando così la vita della cittadinanza.
    La lista dei potenziali colpevoli è fin da subito lunga e perigliosa, Andreas si trova quindi costretto ad usare ingegno e quando necessario a mentire per poter raccogliere tutte le informazioni che può per poter chiudere il cerchio attorno a questo omicidio così misterioso. Mentre investiga una serie di missive scritte con inchiostro viola trovate accidentalmente negli alloggi di diversi abitanti, pongono l'accento su un complotto molto ben ordito, che ci fa pensare che non il movente non sia semplicemente passionale ma che si celi qualcosa di ben più sinistro.
    Nell'arco di alcune settimane l'arco investigativo matura gradualmente fino a che messo con le spalle al muro dalle indagine dell'Arcidiacono, siamo costretti a testimoniare davanti ad una giuria e a sottoporre ai prelati i nostri indizi e le nostre conclusioni. Con del materiale probatorio incompleto siamo noi quindi che influenziamo il corso degli eventi. Ed è quindi a causa della nostra indagine che verrà mandato qualcuno all'esecuzione in pubblica piazza, per mano di un boia.
    Questa potrebbe sembrare la fine della vicenda e la fine della narrazione ma con un colpo di anca inaspettato il gioco si protrae ad un secondo atto sempre più avvincente, che ci farà esplorare un Andreas Maler non più apprendista ma ormai consolidato Magister artigiano, ritornato in città con il suo nuovo apprendista.
    Dal secondo atto in poi il gioco si propone di approfondire route non precedentemente affrontate e al contempo arricchisce ancora di più l'offerta narrativa portandoci naturalmente a voler giocare sempre di più per poter risolvere il mistero oscuro dell'apparentemente cittadina di Tassing.
    Nei panni di Andreas adulto prima e poi della giovane Magdalene, figlia di Klaus stampatore del villaggio, arriveremo al culmine narrativo destreggiandoci tra intrighi, maleffatte e complotti.

    Le poco meno di 20 ore di narrazione della prima run ci lasciano dei bivi inesplorati, che palesemente potrebbero sovvertire gli accadimenti ed è con questa consapevolezza che riprendere il gioco in mano una seconda e una terza volta diventa un fattore molto appagante. La rigiocabilità del titolo è pressocchè sicura ed è questo uno dei motivi che mi portano ad amarlo così tanto.
    Non si perde in inutili side quest riempitive ma anzi centellina le quest secondarie e le rende organiche nella narrazione. Lato artistico mai avevo visto una tale cura per i dettagli, ogni singola scena è un quadro asservito al giocatore. Per non parlare delle musiche.

Essentially, it's like a choose-your-own-adventure graphic novel: a "choices matter"-style game, although the choices presented to you are largely immaterial to the overarching story.

    And that's fine by me; the story had me gripped for the game's entire runtime -- about 15 hours. During that time, your enjoyment will largely depend on how you jive with said story. For me, interacting with all of the characters, seeing them develop over the course of the story, and learning more about the world proved just as entertaining as the game's central mystery. Obsidian has a knack for writing characters with depth and creating worlds that are rich in detail.

    Pentiment has a simple but effective presentation. The game sports an era-appropriate art style, and there is a tonne of dialogue and, therefore, a tonne of reading. Gameplay amounts to picking options from branching dialogue trees and the occasional, trivial puzzle -- which serve more as storytelling devices than actual gameplay. All this is accompanied by a simple but effective score. There's a sting that plays whenever you find mysterious notes -- chef's kiss.

    If all that doesn't sound like your cup of tea, then give it a miss. I wouldn't blame you -- for many, it can barely be considered a game.

    If, however, this has piqued your interest, then it's on Game Pass and costs very little to have a go.    … Expand

    I think it's fair to say this isn't going to be for everyone. It's an old-school point and click - no voiceovers, lots of reading and lots of interacting with everything you can see.
    However, I enjoyed it. It's a thoughtful, slow-paced game with a unique art style and I was left thinking about the plot a good while after finishing it. Absolutely worth a go - especially if you have game pass.

    In Pentiment the player finds an adventure of mystery in the middle of the Catholic medieval Germany. The game does not fall into easy traps of criticizing the church and its script, on the contrary, shows deep knowledge in the matter and it can teach a lot of real theology for those interested. The translation into different languages was done with care, all the liturgical references I found are accurate and the text flows very clearly.

    In the game, you are forced to make several decisions that define your character's behaviour, from a skill tree to choosing which npc to talk to, which can open up different paths through the game.

    All this looks excellent, and the execution of the ideas leaves nothing to be desired, so it's difficult to point out faults with the game. The only problem here is trying to find the player profile that is willing and interested in wading through a lot of text, a lot of Christian imagery, and very little action.

    Despite all the qualities, the too slow pace and total dependence on unfriendly reading makes Pentiment a niche game difficult to recommend for your friend who enjoys competitive games or those with high production value.    … Expand

There's a good amount of the Persona games here with Pentiment's time management system, where you only have certain amount of time segments in a day, and have to pick and choose what to do with each one. You also build up relationships by talking to people and saying the right things, which ultimately helps you achieve your goals. Pentiment also reminded of Frogwares' Sherlock games because you spend most of your time investigating and following up on clues, usually to solve a murder.

    The reason I can't rate it higher is that there isn't that much gameplay to speak of. It's almost all clicking on things and choosing dialog options. One of the selling points of the game, the feeling of authenticity, is also a negative, as most NPCs are fairly mundane, and talking to them isn't that interesting. It's a masterfully-crafted adventure game, but I found a lot of it dull, talking to villagers about raising kids or a monk about life in a monastery. I seldom say this, but it could have used some more whackiness and excitement.    … Expand

I heard a lot about the game from Xbox-based podcasts and I decided to give it a chance. The podcasters seemed to really enjoy the game so I decided it was worth checking out; I didn't know anything about it.

    I think the game receives better reception if you think of it like an interactive book akin to those "choose your own adventure" stories from the 90s. It's not really a game as much as it's an interactive story.

    Yet, this is how the game shines. The murder-mystery storyline is interesting. I found myself actually caring about its characters and the relationships I was building as I played. I think that if you focus on the story that, you, the player, is trying to tell, you'll end up really enjoying it. If you find yourself skipping through dialogue in other games, you'll not enjoy this game. It's 95% reading.

    There are several points in the game that are not interested, however. It's like when you get to a boring section of a book and you read faster just so you can get the interesting part. These segments are typically the dinner sessions, where your character sits down with a bunch of other characters in the game and discuss the plot's recent events. You're given options to say different things and eat different foods, but the choices you make do not impact the story. I found myself rushing through these segments at the game's midpoint.

    I'd also like to say that the game's artwork is as unique as it is phenomenal. There are many times where I would stop playing for a second to admire the artwork in the game. This is especially true for murals, book borders and cloister-area. The medieval artwork feels well-researched and perfectly replicated in the game. It's truly interesting to explore.

    To conclude, if you like reading books and video games; you'll enjoy Pentiment. It's essentially an interactive storybook and that's great for people who are not afraid to play something different. The game is one of kind.

    I would not recommend this game to people who only play hardcore, acton games as Pentiment is the exact opposite of that. If you get bored easily, you probably shouldn't pick this up.

    Regardless, its available on GamePass, so it's worth taking a look, or read, into.    … Expand

    This game is bad because its boring and had bad graphics and you have to read too much - if I wanna read I get a book.

    Pentiment es un juego aburridisimo con gráficos de hace 25 años, todo esta mal con este juego, la música es inexistente, solo cuentas con el sonido ambiental que parece hecho por un aficionado, la historia es un asco, la jugabilidad es peor que la de un cd rom interactivo y por si fuera poco la animación parece hecha por niños de primaria. Es el peor juego que he visto en toda mi vida.

    The production value is so low it’s laughable.

    Series X is 2 years old. How is it still so hard to find good games on that aren’t buried under a sea of shovelware on Gamepass?

    Me han dicho que era una obra maestra, bastante lejano a la realidad. Es la peor basura que he "jugado" en el año. Ni siquiera como libro es bueno.

    More indie garbo from XBS. I don't even consider this a video game. A visual book you get to play along in. Pfft

    This is not a game - it's an animated Illuminated manuscript akin to the transition scenes in Monty python and the holy grail...

    Well, and this "game..." I think if you look at the red notes you'll see what most really think. A game full of polemics and affronts against the church? Will if I comment something disrespectful I'll be wrong or is it just you who can offend other people's faith and religion? Hard to call this game filmmaker, I've never seen something so silly and boring in my entire life. I really don'tWell, and this "game..."

Hard to call this game filmmaker, I've never seen something so silly and boring in my entire life. I really don't understand what Microsoft has been doing all these years, first they deliver Redfall totally broken, full of bugs, full of problems with 30fps, then they invent this totally useless "game", and lastly Starfiled which is coming again to 30fps... The biggest company of all can't deliver something the console can support. I'm tired of these bad games… Expand

    Pentiment is a thrilling, Renaissance-style whodunit that forgoes conventional video game action by focusing on an engaging narrative, branching dialogue options, and character relationships.

    Unique, exciting and clever, Pentiment is a beautiful yet educational adventure - a quiet but valuable gem in Xbox Game Pass.

    Pentiment is a superb game that marks an important step forward for its genre. Quiet, contemplative and intelligent, it is a shining example of what happens when a team is allowed to expand their horizons and take risks.
