Too Human drops a juicy plot development at the most inopportune time: its very end. It's the obvious manner of setting up a sequel, the infamous "to be continued..." we've come to expect from television shows and, yes, even some modern video games. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it exemplifies the core experience of this action/role-playing hybrid. Too Human is a game of false starts and unrealized potential that infiltrate almost every aspect of the game, from story, to combat, to balance. Its elements feel stitched together, making for a patchwork quilt of a game that's fraying at the seams.

I enjoyed the demo, even though I'm no RPG fan.
But reading multiple reviews, it seems Too Human was over-hyped.

Really over hyped apparently, according to critics that is. Only take reviews with a grain of salt unless you really believe them.
