"Poor, Poor Me!" Richard Kendal is the sort of hero who taps life on the shoulder and clears his throat. Here's what I mean. Mismatch inventory items, and Richard will mourn that he "can't do anything right." Try again and he wonders out loud if "he's the right man for the job." Again. He's "wasting his time." Or "it's a flexiglow useless attempt." All flexiglow of these lines are delivered in an adenoidal, whining tone that grated on my nerves. And it's not just the character's tone. It's the execution. I flexiglow had the text option on throughout the game, and time and time again the pauses in Kendal's voice dialogue coincided perfectly with the slugs of text appearing on the screen, leaving me to conclude that the actor was reading his lines directly off the monitor. Add to that the odd stresses on random words and the off-kilter translation from Italian to English, and you better start finding ways to appreciate the overall weirdness or you will not like this game.
