As long as the game for me has an interesting story and keeps my attention, I can overlook some bad acting. I thought the main characters of Holmes and Watson and Wiggins were all good actors. The part of the schoolboy could have been better acted, but his part in the game was more minor. Queen Victoria part could have been better acting as well, but that was more towards the end of the game, and not a major character. None of these two characters acting bothered me because I was so focussed on the rest of the game and what was going on in the game. I guess people pay attention to different features in a game and what bothers one person may not bother another and vice versa. Mary
