    Unfunctional piece of crap game for 80 bucks.
    First make it playable then sell it.
    There are so many shills and bots arguing for this game but it's on the same level as dead space 2 maybe.

    Wasn’t as good as I expected. Also didn’t enjoy the changes that were made in the game.

    1. It uses Denuvo even though everyone is against it because it's a huge security risk and because it causes frame drops.
    2. Graphics look outdated
    3. DLSS/FSR is broken for some reason they degrade the graphics a lot. 4. De-feminizing all the female characters in the game and they made them UGLY. 5. Some animations look weird. 6. Poor optimization even a 4090 can't run it on Ultra 60

    This game is not worth for 60 bucks and it's more of a poor Remaster then a Remake.

    The original dead space is one of the best games I've played, and it still holds today. It didn't need a remake, let alone this agenda driven garbage. Pretty disgusting how they messed up my boy dead space.

    le jeu est ultra buggé injouable au clavier / souris impossible de sprinter et d'écraser l'ennemi, optimisation aux fraises, manette xbox non reconnu le personnage tir à chaque fois que je sors du menu que je me connect ou que j'aille à une station de sauvegarde vu le nombre de munitions c'est très problématique en somme une catastrophe ce jeu. très très déçu.

    1080p resolution is a sad joke. Very weak textures. Price too high for such poor quality.

    This game literally never needed a REMAKE, the one it did need one because how poorly received it was is DEAD SPACE 3. In the original version of DEAD SPACE 1 its controls were only sluggish in the versions for XB0X 36O & PS3 because its framerate was forced to always be at 3O FPS, that's not a problem on the PC version as long as u don't activate the V-SYNC; I recommend the G0G versionThis game literally never needed a REMAKE, the one it did need one because how poorly received it was is DEAD SPACE 3.

This REMAKE has the same problem as DEAD SPACE 1, 2 & 3, in which the FlELD 0F VlEW is just GARBAGE which doesn't even have a way for u to control it on its settings. Many of the areas of the REMAKE are way too dark; in others the density of the fog is way too high, this combined with too much illumination can make ur eyes feel like they're melting since the high illumination is refracted by the dense fog. The PC version has DENUV0 & its optimization isn't very good either, so if u want it so badly, be prepared to deal with random framedrops. Yup, the W0KE changes, like the gender neutral bathrooms, tokenized posters, & nerfed, & aged & tokenized characters were also noticed; that wasn't cool at all. Expand

    piggy attitude on the part of EA. do not add at least Russian subtitles to the game , the original of which even has voice acting ! what is the problem? players are ready to buy your games , why do this with a Russian - speaking audience ?

    نسبت به نسخه اصلی فقط گرافیک بهتر شده و هیچ فرقی خاصی نکرده . عینا عینا ریمیک شده . دم کپکام گرم که حداقل ریمیک هاش از بنیان تغییر می کنه . کمپانی EA در حال شیر دوشی هست

    Extremely overrated game.
    I understand the nostalgia for who played the original version, but it is just too old for 2023 standards. Gameplay is weird and dated, enemies are always the same.
    Story is superficial and could be summarised in a 1-hour video that unfortunately gets hours of repetitive gameplay in the middle.

    Expected more from this remake. It's not as scary as when I played 2008 DS. It looks like they lowered scary atmosphere and heavily reduced gore. This, a Horror Game, contains an Optional "innovative" Trigger Warning system that will warn the player about the Scary bits and blur them out.. in Dead Space! It's like playing a pokemon game that has a option to remove/blur all pokemons if youExpected more from this remake. It's not as scary as when I played 2008 DS.

It's like playing a pokemon game that has a option to remove/blur all pokemons if you find them disturbing. Ridiculous.. there's plenty of characters, scenes and dialogues have been changed in this game for no reason when all they had to do is just upgrade the graphic. Voice acting really feels awful and actors seem bored out of their mind while speaking. There's no emotion in their voice at all. Also they added a lot of cutscenes in this remake that was not in original. At times it feels like they made it more like a movie for some reason. Immersion is low, npc move like robots. It really does feel like a cash grab. Where they put low effort in this remake so they can cash it of a good will of origin game. It's ridiculous that they charge 70$ for a 15 years old gameplay and story. Heavily disappointed in this remake. Expand

    It's just not fun. The character is ugly. The story isn't great. This is a sleepy story.

    Why these lazy developers keep releasing these REMAKES/REBOOTS/REIMAGININS?
    Well, because they don't have any creativity and talent necessary anymore... to come up with something new that can be well received, so they have to go for what was once popular.

    More striking are the zero-gravity sections. [Issue#382, p.108]

    Fortunately, Dead Space does provide the player with one way to ratchet up the intensity. If combat doesn't scare you, then you can always turn on the Impossible difficulty setting where if you die once then it's game over (the remake has helpfully added the option to continue playing at reduced difficulty, the original would just delete your save entirely). I would highly recommend checking out the Impossible difficulty, even if you're not the sort that generally goes in for challenge runs, if only because it gives the game a sense of urgency and tension that it otherwise lacks.

    Dead Space is an excellent, visually stunning remake that vastly improves the original game. The PC of course is heavy and it requires a really powerful hardware in order to run at its best, but there are plenty of options that will allow you to get the best compromise when it comes to detail and performance.
