this was so frustrating and poorly paced at times that it nearly got me to sympathise with the WEAK people who complain about sh1/2's perfectly functional game design. thank god the imagery is super strong though, the first half had me convinced that this game wasn't going to push horror gaming's visual boundaries in the same way the earlier games do with 1's super tight cinematography and 2's uncanniness but then the fucking meat walls showed up and the screen got all fucked up and blurry and I was blown away in equal measure. absolutely ahead of its time in that regard and still better utilised than any modern steam horror game or w/e

also heather rules and is an icon. turns out her killing god and enjoying her blonde hair really do happen a few in-game minutes apart from each other? obsessed
