I was always excited to play dead space but after this Iâm quite disappointed. Fun combat mainly due to the fantastic gore system(which is so important to me in games) and cool creature design but it wasnât challenging at all and yes there is higher difficulty modes to help with this but it doesnât completely change the combat design. it got me thinking of how perfect the balance is of how challenging and rewarding the combat in re4 remake is.
Exploration was booty cheeks I got sick of constantly opening doors there were so many gawd damn.
Upgrade system sucked I wish it would let me pick what I want instead of being forced to choose ones just so I can get to the upgrade I actually want.
Story and characters both so so boring and I went in with low expectations for the story cus these types of games arenât known for their story but damn I didnât expect it to be boring.
Also I hate how slow the game can be in terms of doing the smallest shit like opening ur map or inventory or saving the game takes that little bit longer cus the game wants to immerse you and be realistic, and I appreciate this but honestly it just got on my nerves.
Hopefully dead space 2 is better Iâll go play it thru Xbox backwards compatibility instead of waiting years for the remake.
Also Game wasnât that scary to me đ¤ got me a few times Iâll admit but nothing to what ppl hail it as imo

the story was not as good as 2018s for me and that was always gonna be hard to do but everything else is pretty much an upgrade
playing as atreus was fine, usually his sections were WAY slower especially that angrboda level which is decent but needed better pacing.
i think i just appreciated the focus on father/son relationship in 2018s GoW, whereas this one has alot more on its plate and while kratos and atreus's relationship is still a focus it just didnt hit the same for me here

best game of the series
alot more story focused than the rest, some sections of the game went a little too long without a combat encounter.
first half was amazing
it was when they get to the island which was around chap 14/15 my enjoyment of the game decreased quite a bit. way less action until the end where it picks up again with the combat.
sam was a great addition
puzzles were way less annoying thank you devs

good game, definitely better than the first. the story & set pieces were more exciting and parkour felt more fluid.
cover system is still dogshit
the enemy nades were way too op
theres a tiny portion of the game where it turns into some puzzle platformer and i hated those sections which made these parts even worse was that nate & tenzin dont speak same language so there was no back and forth dialogue which wouldve made these missions less boring.
the puzzles in these games are so bad and fuck with the pacing

enjoyable enough i guess.
puzzles were god awful and some sections of the game were horribly designed ( final level was ridiculous )
surprisingly liked the combat even though the violence in the uncharted franchise is that of a pg 13 movie which i hate, i just love my detailed gore in games too much but i understand uncharted isnt going for that approach since the series is more light hearted
edit: cover system and jet ski missions = liquid poop

Thoughts on this game barely changed, I didnât hate abby this time but I still donât give a flying fuck about her or any of the other characters aside from joel, ellie & tommy.
Shame because every aspect apart from story and characters is god tier, the gameplay is probably my favourite ever.
EDIT: even though i don't hate abby and completely understand why she wanted to kill joel she is just so boring she lacks personality shes not interesting AT ALL
Every time i think about how boring the characters are in this game i go back to Part 1 and every character you meet on that journey is interesting
The main reason people love the first game is the joel & ellie pairing and now because joels dead that pair is gone and can now only be seen in flashbacks which were all done really well but the problem is that there was no interesting pairings like that in this game. obviously creating a duo of that level is gonna be difficult since its an all timer but the ones in this game are just so dull. dina is likeable but not interesting, they didn't give jesse much to do and i also felt tommy was underused, i would've loved ellie and tommy as a pairing.
abby & lev felt like a b-tec version of joel+ellie from first game some people loved it but unfortunately it didnt work for me as i dont find abby interesting but lev was cool.
