It reminds me incredibly of the times of Resident Evil 4 as it is made by the same creator and that was the main reason why I decided to try it immediately after the first videos and reviews were published before its release. Nice and innovative story with a strong sense of horror and intensity throughout the game. There was nothing that I didn't like about it, it achieves what it wants to show you and more. It's worth it for those who like this kind of games.

It is one of the best-made Action Horror games, among those released in recent years. Its graphics are quite good, although there are some issues in certain areas, such as characters sinking into the floor after their death, while the sound effects are at an amazing level. As for the atmosphere, it reminds me of Silent Hill, with more gore elements, as blood flows abundantly. Additionally, there are many DLCs, allowing you to play even more hours with this particular title. The gaps in the story, which are quite significant, are exclusively filled with the DLCs. If you don't complete those as well, then the story leaves you with many questions. The controls seem to be the main problem of the game, especially the combat system, as the character often doesn't respond properly to enemies. Another significant issue is the lack of many save points, making the game much more difficult, and the difficulty is not properly distributed, as there are levels that can lead you to despair or are completed purely by luck. It's a shame for a game of this kind to try to become a Soulsborne-type game. The difficulty problem, of course, is still present even in the easier levels. Overall, I would say it's an amazing game that is worth trying, as it will offer you many hours of horror, if you can handle its frustrating difficulty.

What I liked: the audiovisual aspect, the level design, the variety of enemies, the bosses, the duration of the game
What I didn't like: the shallow storyline with its many gaps, the uneven difficulty in some chapters, the implementation of stealth
Rating: 84/100

I have played many survival horror games since it is my favorite genre. This particular game is not exactly a purebred survival horror, but it is very close. It has beautiful graphics and a magical atmosphere that immediately immerses you in the game. The gameplay has the classic style of the genre and, although it is quite satisfying, it could use some improvements. The storyline is also quite good with a nice plot that tries to "drive you crazy," and overall, it is a good choice for fans of the genre and beyond

Pros:
Awesome graphics and a tremendous atmosphere that make the game incredibly addictive.

Cons:
Takes up a large amount of space on the hard drive (around 35 GB).
It is a very heavy game. The minimum required RAM is 4 GB, while the processor and graphics card must also be top-notch.

Overall:
The game captivates you with its terrifying atmosphere, as well as its amazing graphics and sound. Essential "accessories" include a Full HD screen of many inches and a 7.1 sound system if you are alone at home, while if others live in the space, headphones are required for obvious reasons because the game literally sends you to the toilet at certain points.
