Sadly it's an disappointment and I will be making comparison to DS since it's the same people who made Callisto and called it "a spiritual successor". While sounds design, music, atmosphere, attention to detail in characters, enemies and environment were really stellar; the story, characters and most of the gameplay fall flat. Biggest fault is that not once were I scared throughout the whole experience, no psychological terror working inside your head like original Dead Space did so great (I consider Dead Space the greatest horror game imo, no other game scared me more. Not Sillent Hill, not Resident Evil or Eternal Darkness).

    The melee mechanics, while interesting at first, are broken and you can go through the entire game dodging everyone. The UI for the guns are frustrating; in DS, just press the D-pad for that weapon you want; here, press and scroll and while in combat, it never seems to work correctly there.

    Why can't I pick up health, ammo and other loot with my GRP? You could do that in DS all the way back in 2008, so stupid you couldn't here.
    The story, I see the potential but it felt they never took advantage of the setup they had and the ending wasn't fulfilling. I did manage to 100% complete it fairly easy. Just look up a collectible and special moves guide, boot it up on hardest difficulty and you're good to go. The length of it was fine, expected it to be roughly 10-15 hours long and it was. If they make a sequel they should go the "Aliens" route with they story. Have Dani come back with a military force to adress the situation at Black Iron with really likeable marines. I see the potential there and it would be great. I was more excited over this than God of War: Ragnarök because I knew GoW would be great.
    5/10. Fairly disappointing but it fills a few checkmarks. It's far from the worst horror experience I've had. But not enough the be scary    … Full Review »

    Great horror game. Think it will be a classic after sometime.

    Pros: Fun combat Amazing visuals/ interesting level design Good story Great    Great horror game. Think it will be a classic after sometime.

    Pros: Fun combat
    Amazing visuals/ interesting level design
    Good story
    Great Gore


    Cons:
    Settings need more options for brightness calibration, headset options.
    It was definitely not short but I wish it was longer.

    Wish there was a harder difficulty. Maximum is hard don’t get me wrong but an insane difficulty would be fun. Only issue with combat is you shouldn’t be allowed to just hold dodge. It should be time related. It would make it a lot harder.

    I definitely recommend and hope a sequel comes out.    … Full Review »
