Aesthetically incredible game, I absolutely loved the art direction and tone of this game. The plot is admittedly weak; however with none of the characters really standing out to me besides the janitor. Combat is pretty fun, I fully upgraded the telekinesis ability which is way more interesting than just using firearms. I rarely used any of the other powers though besides the dash and levivtation.

Alot of this game feels like a AAA SCP game which is awesome but I wish the main plot writing had leaned into the aesthetic as much as the world design does.

The DLC for this game was pretty decent and adds some new cool, albeit very situational, powers that you can use.

Overall, very fun and interesting game. I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoyed Remedy's previous game "Alan Wake" or to anyone looking for a fresh new third person shooter experience.

This game is odd, the art direction is very unique and cool, the music is also pretty neat. The story starts off pretty interesting but the intrigue fizzles out after a while and the ending feels pretty anti-climatic. The gameplay is good i think but there are some gameplay sections that take so long and are so annoying to finish which also links in with another complaint that the checkpoints in the game are soooooo bad. There is also a significant amount of stuttering on the ps4 during combat sections. The combat itself can be very fun, the destructible environments are really impressive and the telekinetic powers are fun as hell to use. Facial animations and dialogue can both sometimes be quite janky. The ashtray maze section is quite exceptional though.

This game is a TREAT.
Trippy, exciting, fun, great action, awesome world building, the dude who voiced max payne is in it, it has it all
A huge loveletter to the SCP Foundation, twin peaks, the x files, every good thing ever

I would give it a 4.5 if it didn't run like SHIT on ps4.

The aesthetics and general ambience are absolutely inspired here. A true feast for the senses. Also really enjoyed Jesse as a protagonist. She has a ton of personality/charm. Unfortunately, I'm not so sure about the rest.

The combat here doesn't feel too far off from what Quantum Break was working with. It's much more fluid this time around which goes a long way but the performance gets in the way. The game really struggled on my PS4 Pro and with combat being so hectic and often difficult it got to be a lot after a bit. The checkpoint system didn't help things, some difficulty settings or just general options could've been nice.

As it is, I feel the same way as I have with previous Remedy titles I've played. Okay to good but not great gameplay with some missteps. The surroundings were otherwise so nice here that I'm able to look past it a bit more than usual. This could've really been a big time favorite if the game felt as good to play as it otherwise did to consume.

Excellent, mind bending story and wonderfully trippy visuals, bogged down by a solid combat system that you never need to use to its fullest, level design that discourages the fast paced gameplay that makes said combat system shine, a low enemy variety and a crippling lack of good boss fights. The presentation, creepy, lonely atmosphere, excellently voiced and written protagonist, and a particularly excellent segment near the end make this game worth playing, provided you don't get too bored with mediocre combat.

It's such an interesting and compelling game but it feels let down by repetitive battles. I loved the atmosphere and look of the game like something out of a surreal sci-fi movie. Researching and collecting all the info about the world especially the educational videos were so cool and often times funny. The powers are nice too and powering up to such a powerful being is awesome. I just got bored with the battles a lot times though. I was waiting for them to be over quickly so I could get back to the story and learn more about the characters. It feels like something that would have been better served without those typical fights. It's a shame cause I love everything else about it.
