Interesting. Haven't heard of that but it looks neat. Might be the type of game I'd rather watch a Let's Play of than play myself, though. Also...

the voice acting and dialogue feels ... I dunno, it's not "bad", but it feels a bit "off", like it's written by "semi-edgy artsyfartsy" type, and the dialogue is performed by aliens who only got the tldr version of how to act human.

are you sure they're not just... Finnish?
