FINALLY! Someone who doesn't think it was the best/unique game ever just cause Remedy made it, if anything that's why I was so angry, because they're veterans at this point at making a good game/engine/story telling, this felt like a Pron spin off/Bollywood junk.Yes AW1 gameplay was terrible IMO, janky on PC and not as immersive or intuitive as this.
I genuinely tried so hard both times to like it, they sold us so hard on it being amazing and I finally got it and was just like "oh..." run a to b, shine light, dodge people, hide in the light, run to c, repeat. Paired with a plot that never takes itself seriously with the worst voice acting ever.
I just don't get what they were thinking?
It could have been SO good and genuinely terrifying? WHAT happened!
I think it's mental people compare it to Stephen King etc, that's such an insult to a GOAT like him.
That stupid bit on stage as well in the field fighting people in the concert, and the bit with the combine attacking you, just all seems like a joke/p take? It's like am I meant to be taking this seriously or is this meant to be a P take the whole way through and a joke parody of survival horror/silly teen trip over get stabbed slasher flicks?
I think they insulted themselves personally. This new one however, so far has promise. I cannot stand though the overly forced voice acting of AW in both games, I know he's meant to be full of himself, but it comes across like the actor himself is, and thinks he's delivering god tier acting talent, but it really isn't!
Casey however is just very believable, James McCaffrey is legit and you don't even question that's the person he's portraying, which is impressive seeing as you keep wanting him to be secretly Max haha.
As I said before, I'd of much rather just had him and Saga do a True Detective S1 style story with this engine... That'd be perfection.
