The story in this game has kept me on the edge of my seat enthralled in unraveling the mysterious distress call of the FCV Raptora. The game has over 1000 possible paths of story to explore. I have played through it over 5 times and still revealing pieces of the story. One of the few games that has tremendous replay value and very much worth the price of admission. Also the developers of this game are very responsive and quick to rectify bugs and are open to discussing the story with the player base.
