Originally, I wasn’t going to check A Plague Tale: Innocence, hence why I have not played it for most of the year since release. It looked like a mid-budget attempt at a stealth adventure and those tend to be simply mediocre. The hordes of rats seemingly simulated the way games usually simulate liquids was a cute touch, but I was still not interested enough. It wasn’t until the game started picking up praise for its storytelling that I got curious.
Yeah, I don’t know what that praise was for.
