Evil within 2

So started playing this recently on ps4 pro, it's a huge improvement over the first one in all aspects and looks great on ps4 too imo.

Though I know it's old now I don't recall it being well received and didn't sell all that well as I know it dropped in price quickly too.

Just wondered what people thought here?

I'm on chapter 9, so I'm getting to last part of it all too

I liked the intro. Up until around chapter 4? When you get to explore a small town etc I felt that was really well done but then for me the game became really cheesy and just seemed to drag on a little too much. It's been a while so I can't quite recall what it was in particular that made it feel this way, but I remember just wanting it to end

I think I'm in the minority though, most loved it

I just didn't care for the character or his story either really which probably didn't help

Still a vast improvement over the original

I had that exact feeling with the first, still battled through though.

I get the gripe with the character Sebastian is very wooden in every scenario same with kidman.

This and re7 (re7 vastly superior) show though there is room for this genre it needs more games

Yeah I really wish we got more in the genre. Was gutted when silent hills got axed

Oddly I never played them through to the end I always seemed to forget about em, I do remember the first one going through the fog at the very start

I really enjoyed it, hope they make a third but based on the sales of 1/2 I doubt they will.

True but I never expected a second so always a chance

Super bump.

Have decided to give this a whirl. Playing on the hard difficulty and it seems.... too hard

I like it when the difficulty means your skills are challenged.... not when dealing with more than enemy is almost automatically an instadeath situation where you have to have several attempts to make it through. Even with full health and some ammo it’s pretty much impossible to down all enemies within an ambush!

Hopefully it’ll get a bit easier once I’ve levelled up.

The ghost lady is pretty darn scary!

I think I just did it on normal and in spots even that was tricky!

Yes the ghost lady is deff on the scary side, she has some optional encounters which are great too
