“the first game is better” pleb filter

real talk tho its pretty interesting that i actually ended up enjoying this one as much as i did since it actually seems to be one very controversial sequel to the first game now i liked the first game i didnt think it was a masterpiece neither some junk it was a fun experience altogether with some pretty interesting storybeats here and there and an elite gameplay route sure when you play it you realise everything is held back with duck tape and the best thing in the game is staring at sebastian being hot

that being said a lot of people hated this installment in the series for the stupid reason that is: the series got shall i say AAA-ed which is a word that makes no sense and I just made it up but its pretty funny looking its just like elon musks son yknow xanax something so i was saying the entire experience got overhauled and streamlined the game has the same structure as base skeleton but it actually “improves” on different things like the weird uncohesiveness of the original game and the huge amount of times youre gonna die due to the fuck ton of traps and gimmicky segments but then it also updated a lot of what made the combat as good as it was and they actually made the entire experience more cohesive both in the gameplay department AND in the story department and even better they made sebastian so fucking hot i was barking the entire time sebastian im literally a hole to be filled im so sorry for your wife and daughter but the stones say im overdue for a creampie

and people complained

so if you didnt get it i absolutely fucking loved this game like it made me absolutely enthralled for the entirety of it and i do really believe its a great update to the originals idea and vision

they trashed the linear progression for some open hub type of gameplay where you can do some scavenging for ammo and materials or kill some enemies around or even complete some side quests if you want sure this is not a openworld typa game but it actually made the chapters way more fluid you may be in the bathroom in a diarrhea cutscene and the game would say chapter 7 its pretty good now im not that big of a fun for side quests but for some reason i ended up doing most of them maybe actually all of them due to the fact that they would give you more weapons or items or gel and shit oh yeah the upgrade system is back and I NEEDED that gel because skill trees give me some kind of serotonin

meeting tatiana or going at the working table you can upgrade basically everything weapons constitution damage storage healing items create ammos or new arms you can actually do whatever the fuck you want maybe even more than in the first game and this is absolutely fucking fun its insane how addicting it is to just update every single skill for sebastian idk maybe im just too adhd that could also be the reason and i also put everything in the running stamina because i need to run always in every single moment or i will die same thing i did with breath of the wild

so the gameplay is still fun lets go

this games cinematic approach at the source material is stunning theres a lot of good scenes and sceneries all around to the point that the first act with stefano being the main villain was probably the best part it has a lot of stunning camera shots and color schemes and themes of art and beauty altogether and the places are great (actually preferred the first games schizophrenic locations but thats alright) and the enemies are cool as shit and it sure as hell got into the great technological advancement to the point that sebastian is a fucking snack i cannot believe i cant suck this guys dick irl i hate fictional men so much they make my expectations so high i wont ever touch another human being again sebastian im very free and very freaky+

so i was saying enemies yeah maybe i actually preferred the original ones and maybe the developers do too because theres a whole sequence that reenacts scenes from the first game and youre like omg the spider girl swoons so whatever but some highlights are the big girl with the chainsaw thats one of the freakiest designs ive ever seen and the final boss but i cant talk about that rn because its time for story

so the story SPOILER I actually liked it more because I love the sad dad trope trying to save his daughter or whatever so basically it's just the evil within ² as in youre gonna get in the STEM ² and save your little girl because somehow fate wants that shes essential for the new machine or whatever so go in there do some stuff see that the fictional town is going buck wild and kill some bitches

the first act with stefano as I said is defo the highlight of the entire plotline since after that it slowly just becomes some kind of excuse for sebastians wife to be the somehow villain of the entire story even putting the priest and the entirety of mobius aside

sure the whole "I actually did it for our daughters sake" trope for the mother character can get tiring after a while but I LOVE it they really outdid that part of the game with some flashbacks here and there to thicken the emotional connection between sebastian and his family and actually making you care for these people that in the first game were just names in random collectible papers and thats where this all shines you see a broken family due to external causes and that also led to internal conflicts between them which is always really good since it reminds me of home :3 anyway yeah sure it's not really the biggest twist or plot point ever I need to be real with you while talking about this since I do absolutely love this kind of stories but I guess for some people the cheese is too much for them or whatever

that being said the priest arc is over pretty quickly and doesn't leave a strong impression after stefano being the true heart of the game and the final act with The Wife I forgot her name being the villain is actually pretty tight super packed with combat and story elements that culminates in possibly one of my favorite final bosses ever in the history of videogames its so fucking simple and has no particular gimmick to it but that's what makes it SOOOOO GOOOOOOD and also the design of the entire boss is just top notch absolutely incredible monster design and also its pretty telling that this woman is the cum demon since I'd also be full of cum if I was sebastians wife thank you everybody for listening to me have a nice day

the ending is cheesy enough probably shed a few tears sure it's pretty predictable that somebody would've been left behind I was putting my money on sebastian then I remembered there wouldn't be a the evil within 3 so I shifted my POV and yeah the wife is the only character left so there you go mind you this is not like the greatest crying moment I've had in my life that one's for explorers of sky and maybe masterpiece adastra furry vn but it sure delivered an emotional conclusion to the whole tale

oh yeah and also kidman is here and she's back to being badass (i don't really care for her im sorry fans)

soooooooo probably not what a lot of people wanted from a the evil within sequel but definitely really synced with me on a lot of planes spiritual AND physical boners caused by sebastian castellanos don't go easy on you just gonna leave this in the open as fair warning for anyone willing to listen

definitely not a perfect game and if I glance at this installment in an objective manner the seams are gonna come apart but I fucking love this junk this is exactly the garbage that I love and adore and I wont listen to anyone say the first game is better because I have no counterargument and I WILL cry on you

trust you will be dealt with period period

sebastian im stretching my hole BTW my address is
