A Plague Tale: Requiem

всю игру хотелось убить маленького ребенка. [spoiler] в конце убили, [/spoiler] а стоило бы это сделать еще в начале предыдущей части, хз

...........

Me ha gustado mucho la saga, para mi el mejor es el primero pero este está muy bien también. Segundo juego platinado, ahora a esperar el tercero de la saga.

I love the whole story honestly. Even though sometimes I want to punch Hugo in the face, but I love the game ngl

Before Chapter 9, I would've given this game a negative review with zero hesitation. I had connected well with the story to... a degree but coming here without playing the first made it obviously confusing, user error there I guess. But the game for me had massive stuttering problems in the mid game, ultimately this game just seems sensitive to driver changes or gpu overclocks which again is fine. My main gripe is the buggy dialogue that could not keep up with me, the weird and very obtuse control scheme that I got used to sure but made it very hard to play in the beginning and then actually focus on the game mechanics, this games animations also bothered me alot for being insanely robotic at times or repetetive like with death scenes. This sounds very negative at this point right? If I ended it now itd be a thumbs down. IMPORTANT DO NOT SKIP 2ND PARAGRAPH Then I played Chapter 10 onwards. My gripes with the game were bugging me because the narrative wasn't connecting with me enough to distract me from these annoyances and issues I had, which made me focus on them and then when cutscenes come up I didn't focus on them enough. But Chapter 9/10 idk around the time you make it to [spoiler] La Cuna [/spoiler], it rapidly changed for me. The narrative started to really make sense when it didn't before, the gameplay felt less dragged out thanks to that. Especially once the whole arc started where [spoiler] Hugo began to realize that everything was deceit, everyone was lying, and that ultimately only one person could end everything and the suffering of Europe. [/spoiler] That broke me to a degree I have never felt before outside of literal trauma, with the death of [spoiler] Amicia and Hugo's mother [/spoiler] feeling like the largest knife twist that went right then left then right ever. What I mean is that the game trains you for most of its run to hate her, to think shes stupid and foolish for wanting to condemn Hugo, and then when they finally meet again near the end of the game on La Cuna, she realizes how much the two have proved, grown, accomplished and immediately knew she was wrong and Amicia was right without the smallest of thoughts. That motherly instinct immediately despite the game preaching about mothers and other ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ the whole time on the cult of La Cuna. Then the game lets Amicia be damn near ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ murdered by the Count of Provence, you literally escape by the thinnest of margins, only to again lose a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sword duel to him right in front of your mother and her throat gets slit open. THAT ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ HURT SO MUCH. It made me feel so guilty for hating her, so wrong so everything. ' The ending of the game too I....I cant talk about it more or ill be legitmately sobbing even more than I am writing this review at 3 am. If you are willing to deal with clunky mechanics and willing to be emotionally gattling gunned into the core of the Earth, play this game. It's art even if it's imperfect, its a metaphor of the human nature and I've learned things about myself playing it.

good game. much rat. so sling
