Edith Finch, again in contrast to both, just has a sincere and heartfelt story to tell you and doesn't try to pull a 18th-century-ethics-debate on you.

`The graphics are phenomenal, mostly in terms of direction rather than raw asset quality or magnificent use of techniques.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
80 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The voice acting is good with a couple of weird deliveries, but it's competent, probably held back more by the writing which I'll come back to.

I played this mostly on my steam deck docked and was impressed by the graphics even when playing from like a 768p resolution base on the TV.
