Incredibly cozy and full of rich characters in a beautifully realized world. Quirky and random gameplay elements with a comfortable 1 hour per day pacing. Great vibes, sounds, and style all around!
Overall a fairly simple game, with not much impact or thought-input from the player which is what ultimately brings it down a bit.
Still, I'm not regretting playing it!

It's not just a simple arcade boxing game. It has so many pop–culture–linked characters in it, and it makes this game even better. Moreover, there are things, which are mysterious, happening in the game. It was fun to play, but the game become a little bit boring at late. I'm glad it ended right after becoming a little boring.

I am a self confessed huge fan of the original Evil Within, for me that game stands alone amongst survival horror games of this generation, but it did cause me to get quite excited by the prospect of the sequel.
Would this new game match up to it's superb precursor??
In short, no. But that's perhaps more my personal preference then any downfall of the title itself.
One of the things i liked most about the original were the wonderful environments that you were shepherded through in a very linear track, like a horror maze at an amusement park, the sequel still has these segments and they really shine proving to be the sequel at its best, but when it isn't following this strict path you're left in a small scale open world, which doesn't really feel very tight or especially interesting, with all most MMO like levels of disengagement in the game world, mobs wandering around aimlessly on set path ways, it kinda feels like this game was heading for a scripted experience like it's forebear and then someone in a boardroom said, it's got to have open world, open world is the future, and we ended up with what feels like shoehorned sections of openworld gameplay interspersed with the quality linear experience.
When this game sticks to it's roots it's superb but the occasional open world distraction leaves it in the wake of it's superior forebear.
Still excellent but not quite to the standards exhibited from it's seminal original

honestly one of the best survival horror games i've ever played. if you're into true survival horror, where ammo/supplies are limited, this is a great game for you.

Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice has really different taste. You experience completely something different. The atmosphere, story, gameplay, graphics & audios… Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice has proved us, an indie game can compete with AAA productions. There are some facts which I really liked about this game. However, there are also things which bothered me.
The atmosphere of this game is completely amazing. Senua has psychosis and she copes with inner voices. All the voices you hear during the game, feels you perfectly uncomfortable, they have adapted really well. Designing of the environment, the quality of the graphics and audios, puts you into the middle of the atmosphere and let you feel it deeply.
The story is neither an epic story nor the worst. It is just fine, could be better though. It doesn’t make you bored but also doesn’t make you excited either.
The biggest problem is game-play. Although the combat sequences are pretty satisfying, variety of the enemies are not enough at all. In the very beginning I thought that, puzzles have designed really wisely then I have realized that is completely repetitive. What I mean is, you do almost the same puzzles from the beginning till the end.
As a summary, Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice provides an amazing experience with good price. I believe that everyone should play and experience it.
