IT'S WIKTOBER EVERYONE

Alright guys...hear me out...
I quit on chapter 3..... "Wikwi bro....it's the shortest chapter...you gotta finish it!"
I don't want to....

The game is....good.

I like the atmosphere, the movement and the mechanics in place are cool. I like the photo mechanic, and I liked the overall area my first time exploring it.

Here's what I don't like:
• The ghosts.....I get it man...They're ghosts...I should expect them to teleport behind me and also clip through walls. In practice, this was rather frustrating with the movement...this is fine, however, refer to the next point.
• There's like 20 health items up to chapter 2, and maybe like 5 items that act as a second life bar if you die. 95% of ghost attacks do about 35-45% of your entire health bar, and you can only carry one life-bar restore on your person at a time. The penalty for dying is starting at a manual save point located throughout the area you explore. This system is in place to add tension, however, it personally just frustrated me. I didn't enjoy backtracking to pick up a life-restore just as much as I didn't like backtracking to savepoints in order to not lose progress.
• Exploring the exact same areas in 3 different nights was not enjoyable to me. I much prefer a system akin to RE1.
• The puzzles are not good and additionally are recycled about 10 times.
• The story was not very engaging.

I will still play Fatal Frame II one day.
