The stutter on PS4 might be dismissable if the majority of the game involved anything other than just walking and looking at things (thus drawing your focus elsewhere), the problem is when I'm staring at a tree line for several minutes and it stutters every ten seconds or so, it breaks the immersion really quickly.

Push Square....
Sounds similar to SOMA.
Firewatch is as beautiful visually, as it is emotionally. Its main premise, being so unique, enables you to pursue an intriguing mystery in a picturesque location, whilst discovering more about human emotion and psychology. All aspects of the game amalgamate to form such a brilliant end product that I have given it a perfect score. There are so many other things that make this game awesome but I am not going to spoil it for you in this review.
Is this the game that has like 4 trophies?
How did you trigger dialogue about this object? I found it, but had no option to Report it on either of my playthroughs.
I reviewed on PS4. Had some serious stutter when wandering the world--objects loading in would stop things for half a second, pretty frequently. Conversation triggers would also stutter the game. Also froze three different times on loading screens and had to close the game and reload.
Shame to see PS4 version seems to have issues...going to probably wait on word of a patch first then
Maybe it has something to do with when you found it? I think I just opened and the Walki-talkie trigger was there.
Found it when you go deal with the girls
Better than 9.2 and worse than 9.4?Someone really needs to explain to me what a 9.3 is even supposed to mean.
Just FYI there's a typo, should be "platonic" instead of "plutonic"My review at Digital Chumps (spoiler free)

9.2/10.
Hm, I wonder if I might get a better performance on my laptop. It seems to meet the recommended specs.I reviewed on PS4. Had some serious stutter when wandering the world--objects loading in would stop things for half a second, pretty frequently. Conversation triggers would also stutter the game. Also froze three different times on loading screens and had to close the game and reload.
5. No platinum. Same number of achievements on PC.
Firewatch is a simply gorgeous game that is less about telling an explosive story and more about the little moments that make up the journey. While the games performance flaws do damper the overall experience, they are not game breaking, and players who enjoy oddly entertaining character interactions and beautiful game worlds will be smitten with Firewatch.

The math behind it is highly technical. IGN editors are required to have several advanced degrees in multivariable calculus and differential equations.
Ha, thanks!Just FYI there's a typo, should be "platonic" instead of "plutonic"
Unless it's more Lovecraftian than I thought and the mi-go are involved... <_<
Is it safe to pick up the PC version?
Just to chime in...
Fuck some of these reviews are really, really spoiler-y had to read them for OpenCritic's video recap but damn, wish I hadn't :-\
