ECHO

Danish game developer ULTRA ULTRA closed their doors about a month ago. The sole game they put out before that didn't sell well enough to keep them afloat. After having played it, I am not surprised. ECHO (as it is stylized) has some impressive visual detail but is ultimately a painfully repetitive and unrewarding gaming experience.

Whirlwind

The Asian Saga ends with its low point when reading it in the series' internal chronological order. Or at least I personally found Whirlwind to have the least interesting characters and setting among all the books.

Noble House

Hong Kong in 1963 isn't as interesting of a setting as it was in 1866. Even the current day would've been more intriguing with the region having been returned to China as well as China's rather strong position in the world's economics. But 1963 is dull to me like about all of the 20th century.
