Virginia | Full Game Walkthrough | No Commentary
0When Virginia first came out I was very excited to play it since the trailer made it out to be a story driven investigation inspired by works like Twin Peaks. I love myself some detective games so this seemed right up my alley! Unfortunately when I played the game it was not what I expected, or wanted, at all and was a more artistic non-linear storytelling with quick cuts and jumps rather than an actual investigation game. I honestly was quite disappointed when I first played the game and had never looked back at it since.
But as we want to archive as many games as we can here on this channel I decided to take the plunge once more and see if I could enjoy this game a bit more than I did way back when. And honestly I did. I still prefer a more traditional detective game and storytelling, but from what I could tell this game tells the story of a newly assigned FBI agent who gets sent to a little town where a young boy has gone missing. Along the way she is also assigned to investigate her own FBI partner and realizes that the system she works for is corrupt and "eats" their own. She even has a dream where she foresees that she can make it all the way at the top of the FBI, but at a huge cost of betraying all those around her that she loves. So in the end she and her partner give up on the investigation and move away from the system and people who are so corrupt.
