The main character seems like an antagonistic dick, though, and I wouldn’t really care to do a deep dive into his childhood or trauma. So that is, admittedly, a turn-off, but I think it will be awesome to have a Hitchcock-inspired game that utilizes his style as opposed to a straight narrative adaptation....
