Weird religious meanings hidden in PSN's Datura

As it turns out, Datura is about much more than drugs and motion control issues. It seems the game is filled with very subtle religious and literary significance which Sony failed to notice in Quality Assurance phases.

The Sixth Axis points our attention towards an article which summarizes the dangerous hidden layers beneath the surface of what is already being considered a provocative cult game.

im sure there is plenty of symbolism in it, but it is still a clumsy, clumsy game.

Did you play with Move or DS3?

b_one4364d ago

with move is far better :)

Knushwood Butt4364d ago

Yeah, I played with Move and didn't have any issues. Took a bit of time to get used to the overall feel, but once I did it was well implemented.

3D was good too. The map is awesome in 3D. Also, a bit later on is really cool in 3D too, but that would give away spoilers.

arbitor3654363d ago

first off, why are you assuming I didn't use the move?

secondly, the controls arent even the main issue I have with the game. to start

- the presentation is flawed and cartooney (character animations especially)
- there are numerous technical hiccups (texture pop-in and clipping glitches)
- the game is way too short to be acceptable. it is one and a half hours, and the size of its world is smaller than a COD map
- the puzzles are not engaging
- the ending is one of the most lazy and uninspired I have ever seen
- it doesnt have any compelling narrative or coherent world to be invested in

it presents some interesting ideas, but the game itself is a TOTAL MESS

I am one of the biggest Playstation fans on N4G, but I know a bad game when I see it.

Creator told that duration will be something about 1h30m from begining - so this is no argument, for me is longer, i like exploring.
This is abstraction at its finest ;D

and please, dont talk about COD, this makes your arguments sound like crap...
