Hellblade II: Senua’s Saga

Insane sound design.

I loved the first game and was going into that with proper expectations. Production value is insane. It is like an interactive movie, great story, well written characters, stunning audio-visual experience. Recommend for someone who enjoys narrative driven games and don't mind simple gameplay mechanics

The first Senua game was one of the most visceral gaming experiences I've ever had. This game follows that experience effectively. The visuals have had a major boost and, while there is still a level of uncanny valley at times, the amount of effort in the motion capture and facial movement is nothing short of impressive! There are a few more characters this time around, but the voices that we heard all throughout the first game have returned and they still do a fantastic job here. I also enjoy the evolution of Senua's journey. This time she has both accepted elements of her mental illness in response to the events of the previous game, but we also see how the disease still impacts her, in spite of her earlier victory. Considering mental illness is a lifelong battle, this makes a lot of sense in terms of accuracy of the illness, the narrative, and for gameplay purposes. Speaking of gameplay, its similar to the previous game. The combat is still pretty similar. The puzzles are pretty similar. They aren't exactly the same, but the the gameplay was never really the point of the first game. This game, like the previous title, is an auditory and visual spectacle that tells a powerful and emotional tale of overcoming our own demons...and this time we help other overcome theirs as well. Another highly recommended title from Ninja Theory and I really hope we end up getting another game from them in the future!

Es un juego fascinante. Ambientación, sonido, historia y si te gusta la mitología Nórdica... nada más que pedir. Recomendado.

bomba!

There is always a choice.
