From what I saw, it seemed to be a pretty interesting and fun story. However, I pretty quickly found what I needed to to finish the game, without having to read through most messages and emails (I got the email password, then I read the emails from bottom up, then looked at the images, so I only needed to read 1 message chain and three emails). I went back after I finished the game to read more.
The UI systems like the computer windows were really cool, and quite well put together. The game overall really is great, even if most of the mystery can potentially be skipped.
