Senua's Saga: Hellblade II Review & OT "The hardest battles are fought in the mind, not with the sword".

Gamepass for better or worst. Am sure most will travel this route, which is not good for Ninja Theorys future.
this is insane. Santa Monica put out a free update with more story content then this shit
It's a 7/10 for me. Gameplay feels like a huge downgrade. No bosses or mini bosses, a more casual approach to combat, familiar puzzles and way too many long walking scenes. It's meant to be enjoyed as a purely cinematic experience, but as a huge fan of the first one, the sequel feels diluted in almost every aspect (except for graphics of course).
There are a lot of 4K screenshots at max settings in the review. For some of them I used a mod to remove DOF, Filmgrain and other post-processing effects.

The first one was boring as fuck, are you telling me this is even more boring? That's why these mofos are putting 40h in the game, they fall asleep halfway through a play session and wake up drooling with the remote in their hands.
sorry, but sounds like a lower score game.It's a 7/10 for me. Gameplay feels like a huge downgrade.

yes, go through the story. but also, it is highly replayable, H2 isn't. when you finish, you finish.It's shorter than GOW Valhalla?
Holy shit it can be finished in 5 hours... LoL
Am I a bad person if I suggest the development studio should be shuttered for releasing a lesser game that doesn't even try to improve as a sequel? Surely the money they've spent could have mattered for Tango Gameworks...

IGN gave H2 8/10 but Stellar Blade 7/10? make it make sense? Stellar Blade's one area is bigger than this all game, combined it with 10x superior combat, music, story etc..
Gamesradar also another xbox astroturfing site, gave it 10/10 while Stellar Blade 7/10. they also said that Starfield was best bethesda work in 20 years and gave 10/10

They are just shill reviewers.
PS exclusives always get treated harder, Stellar Blade, ROR, and so many more get treated harshly compared to Xbox studio games or others

What was the appeal on the first game?
Honest question, because I've tried to play it several times for the past 4 years. I just can't get myself to play more than a few minutes before feeling bored and sleepy. Granted, I haven't gone over 2 hours from the beginning.
IGN's score is proportional to the amount of clothes the heroine is wearing.IGN gave H2 8/10 but Stellar Blade 7/10? make it make sense? Stellar Blade's one area is bigger than this all game, combined it with 10x superior combat, music, story etc..

5/5 is from Eurogamer, not DF.
Any PS game has 100+ reviews when reviews drop and on average have 140+ critic reviews, Its honestly harder to score more for PS games than xbox games with their 50 reviews but the narrative is "xbox tax". Stellar Blade is 10 times the game and was made in a shorter time than the pretentious sham that is lulblade 2 made by people high on their own farts

Using the 7-10 scale?

Scored as predicted. Real travesty are the schills tht gave it 100. Even if it was a good game tht length does not warrant 100 imo but it is what it is. If you getting 100 from me got to at least be like 10 hours. Combat and gameplay is the same basically so this game wouldn't have gotten more than a 70 with its trash tier combat.
So with all the inflation by the dedication shills, game in reality is a 7/10.
So what makes it a 7/10? Because it was a "cinematic graphical experience"? Did you have fun? did you enjoy it?It's a 7/10 for me. Gameplay feels like a huge downgrade.

If the game had poor graphics what would you have scored it?

81 even with the boost from the media trying to save Xbox and high scores from all the reviews with XBox in the name? Must be a 7/10 or bellow in reality. Wow, 7+ years for this.
There is no indication this game is worthy of $1 and 5 hours of my time.
