The sound really was amazing, it had me hooked!

If do the Gamepass thing for £8 a month, I assume that's still the full game correct?

Yes full game, I bought some audeze maxwell recently so looking forward to seeing how it sounds on this

What do you mean, I never played the first one isn't any good?

The sound was incredible. The part in complete darkness where you have to listen to the environment, it was captivating. One of the most engaging games I’ve played tbh.

That's your own opinion

1st one was my game of the year, if a little short

I keep trying to play the first one, get chills down my spine and have to quit playing! I really want to complete it but i'm way too much of a wimp

Too scary

 

[ShiWarrior]

I don't find any games scary

Unless it's in VR, then I can't play it

But I've played this in vr too and it's damn good

There's nothing scary about this game.
The puzzles can be a little frustrating if anything but that's about it

 

[sgavan]

Yeah some of the puzzles in the first game felt like repetition and filler but generally the gameplay and voice feels more weird and creepy but in a good way, it's a game that has to be played and difficult to convey.

This game really does look gorgeous.

Although you do have to turn all the tricks of the trade on to get it running at acceptable framerates

on a 14700K with a 4080 I have to use DLSS / Frame Gen which makes it look slightly blurry but getting 100-130 fps yet there are still some areas where it lags and jumps all over the place. Hopefully a patch can sort these out... ohh and had 1 crash

I've seen mixed reviews - probably why there was a review embargo until an hour before release

I hope its not as boring as the first one, im glad it was a short game but im also glad i played it as it did have some interesting and unique parts.

Same boring puzzles as the first one, and looks like a linear movie experience going by some of the footage I've seen

I'm looking forward to this as the last one was great.

Loved the first one so will definitely be playing this, I was all up for buying it but guess may as well just subscribe to gamepass for a month.

Need a new headset though, think I need to hold off until I've sorted that as definitely added a lot with the first game.
