Beat a game with horror as a central theme Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice There are some weird issues with this game but at the same time it's amazing cons -WAY too much backtracking -Combat was frustrating. It would squeeze too many enemies into small areas (which led to getting boxed into corners with a fixed camera), toward the end enemies felt repetitive and would respawn almost endlessly, and the way combat worked often left me without my bearings at the end, where I couldn't remember what direction I was supposed to be going (since both the entrance and exits to most locations looked similar) pros +Senua is incredible +Story is incredible +Portrayal of psychosis is incredible +Sound design was some of the best I've ever seen in a game; it's one of the only games I've played that insists on using headphones, and does so to such great extent. It's basically a super intense ASMR game shrug +/- Puzzle mechanics are hit or miss, sometimes they're really awesome and clever but after a while they feel repetitive, or frustrating because you can see the solution right in front of you but just can't view it at the exact right angle the game wants +/- Norse mythology backdrop is just making me want to play God of War again --- Khal Kirby, warlord of the Super Star Khalasar PSN/Steam: CheddarBBQ https://goo.gl/Diw2hs ...
