In the end, the player ends up being robbed of any autonomy and ambiguity as to what they can expect. It reeks of the sadness of wasted potential. If the first game was a terrifying and harrowing journey delivered with intensity and atmosphere few other games have achieved, Hellblade 2 is a haunted house made to imitate the first game’s greatness that misses a lot of what made it such a memorable experience.
Hellblade 2 is the most visually accomplished game seen so far in 2024 and a true UE5 showcase - and there's plenty PC developers can learn from it.
they learnt series S can only manage 900p!! 😳

If you go for a graphic type game you better have a great story like Heavy Rain or have some good gameplay. Can’t make a game with amazing graphics but nothing to make you want to continue playing it.
Hellblade 2 was good. I enjoyed the story and it's a real looker. Best looking game I've ever played.
Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II, developed by Ninja Theory, continues the journey of Senua, delving deeper into her psychosis and exploring themes of trauma, resilience, and self-discovery. This highly anticipated sequel builds on the foundation laid by its predecessor, with a focus on narrative depth, visual excellence, and immersive sound design.
Ninja Theory writes: "We've added some fixes to improve the game experience"
"Misaligned peach fuzz around Senua's neck and face has been corrected"
ahh, just the patch ive been waiting for, can jump in now, safe in the knowledge, misaligned hairs have been aligned...
what a Day to be alive
Wasted visuals, the game is interesting only at the 4th chapter, dumb ending
rushed and unfinished story
Probably won't be a 3rd game, not if it takes another 7 years for this result.
