Yeah the pacing is sort of the center of my main issue with it too. I admittedly haven't played many other survival horror games, but it definitely didn't feel like one. Outlast for example never even gives you a weapon. It's all about testing your stealth and resourcefulness under pressure as many of the boss fights are actually just you solving a puzzle while being stalked by an unkillable enemy.

Dead Space 2 on the other hand gives you a gun with plenty of ammo and fighting Necros ends up being more fun than scary with no real penalty for choosing to fight. Later on however they throw so many enemies at you, they just become more of a nuisance than anything and the only thing you have to stress about is your ammo and health reserves. Resulting in more frustration than fear and that was after I switched back to Normal too. Casual was that easy absolutely nothing was a threat.

I do still think there was a lot to like, plus I think the addition of New Game Plus and the higher difficulties (especially Hardcore) can make this a really fun game to replay once you're not spending most your credits on new suits and weapons.
