Just started playing this game this week. Setting is great, characterisation isn't bad but I'm about halfway through my second year of the game and wondering...am I ever going to be satisfied from a gameplay stand point?
I love Lucasarts point and click games but these puzzles just feel uninspired and clunky...do they improve?

Improve? That's the last one.

He means within that game you moran.
puzzles are as cryptic as in monkey island

I like to pretend that Monkey Island 4 doesn't exist.
Pretty sure Grim and Monkey Island 4 are on the same engine, too, so clunky comes with the territory. Are you playing the recent remake? I hear they improved the controls and they certainly couldn't get any worse.

Remaster if you can call it that. The graphics only apply to character models, everything else is in the original form. I assume the controls are changed though.
But yeah, puzzles feel so awkward...gameplay is by far the worst aspect of the game so far, does that change?
I honestly never understood the complaints about the controls, but then again I never thought tank controls were a bad thing in games. Only played through Grim for the first time a few years back too and thought it was all around fantastic in story, presentation and puzzles. Got my ass whipped proper good by a fair few of them but I'll take that over modern adventure games like Telltale's where they're as good as nonexistent (although still enjoyable as something closer to a TV watching experience).
Uninspired? Clunky? Could you maybe try explaining in a bit more depth what you find wrong about the design so there's actually something to talk about?
