The fundamental issue with Reverie is that it never lives up to the epic feeling of Lords of Shadow. Understandably it’s difficult to replicate that scope in such a short amount of time, but it’s also due to the cheap, incomplete feeling it leaves you with. It introduces a short, interesting narrative through its concept art based cutscenes, but doesn’t ever follow through; Reverie is not a standalone piece of content, but rather a precursor, leading immediately into the yet-to-be-released Resurrection content. This revelation leaves the journey’s overall value in question, as you don’t really feel like you’ve accomplished much of anything, but you’re still compelled to see Gabriel’s ultimate fate.
