STASIS: BONE TOTEM

Overall pretty good. - The idea of 3 separate concurrent playable characters that can share items is ingenious. - The art direction is excellent - great setting/world building. The writing is really good for the background notes/pdas that you can find - Puzzles are quite good, well-layered enough yet doesn't cross into masochism, with only some which don't fully make sense, but maybe that just me. - The voice-acting and writings for the main characters are... misguided . The writing is so-so, combined with the extremely dispassionate deliveries (also many times crosses into quirk-chungus, above-it-all territory) makes it really difficult to empathize with the characters. They are mainly good when they serve world-building, but later on in the game they're just absolute waste of breath talking about non-existent feelings and pointing out the obvious next thing one should do, and so at this point i generously skip them. - The "cutscenes" are ....quite bad, but it's not a main focus in anyway. Overall, 7.5 - 8. Depends on your personal taste. If it's immersing yourself in an original, fleshed out settings, solving solidly-designed puzzles, and deepsea diving, then this game is quite the package for you

Определенно игра про атмосферу и историю. Здесь и то и другое подано отлично. Красивые синематики и прекрасные close up арты дополняют это дело. Единственное что, сами локации и отдаленные виды не блещут запредельной графикой, а некоторые локации темные и рассмотреть интерьер тяжеловато. Если бы графика в целом была на уровень повыше, то атмосферность игры бы зашкалила. Загадки в целом интересные и логичные. Но есть и моменты, где без интернета, не очевидно что делать. 4/5

Although I liked the first game I didn't really find any deeper connections to have with it. The main attraction of that game beyond a relatively unique presentation for the genre was that it was very grisly and had probably the most extreme form of eco-horror I've ever come across, but the characters weren't quite enough to make it much more than that, not helped by a very poor villain and an ending I was not satisfied with. This sequel, first off, immediately rectifies the big gripe I had with the gameplay of the first game, by adding an indicator as to what can be interacted with, so you aren't held back from progression by not being able to find items. Point-and-clicks always contain puzzles that feel a little unfair, but that one choice streamlined this one a lot more. In terms of the visual and story style, this one does retain the eco horror, however this time it doesn't let it feel like the focus; the characters are much more compelling, it does away with the awful villain archetype from the first one, the viscera no longer reaches into shock-value territory like the first game did a couple of times (even though there are still disturbing moments, just nothing as dark as the surgery scene or the daughter scene from the first game), and it's got a much grander scope with a more bizarre, original and interesting mystery to uncover compared to just some experiments gone wrong. It's still brutal but I was genuinely invested in the situation this time since the larger cast and complexity of the situation allows for everyone involved to be given significantly more depth. Definitely worth a play if you like body horror.

有汉化了，好玩，没错过

It's a good one.

Fantasic P&C adventure game. Incredibly atmospheric. Made me cry. A bargain price. 10/10
