You’re right. It’s not point and click adventure. The controls resembles it though, you point and click and Andreas goes there. That’s where similarities end.

Also you have a point the pacing is really slow. The game I played before Sentiment was Amid Evil, which is old school fast paced boomer shooter, so the switch was pretty brutal. But in the end it felt somehow “relaxing”? So much shit happens so fast IRL so I found myself coming to the game to actually enjoy the slow progression. But I can see how people might dislike it. I like reading books and I read slow so I’m used to slow progression.
