A weak sequel that I prefer over the OG

If you have played the original FEAR, you will in most likelihood be really disappointed in this game. That being said, I heavily prefer Project Origin over the iconic OG. The story is better, with some really dark subjects that I enjoy. The music is something I adore, shout-out to the Snake-Fist theme. And the visuals, while not having the same harsh shadows, are genuinely impressive. Gameplay is a lot of fun, and the lenght is relatively short, making it a great one-sitter. This is a game I replay every October, and I enjoy it just as much each time! ... shame that FEAR 3 showed this game's story the middle finger...

Adecent sequel but something went wrong

Project Origin still holds up very well, it's a good game but some step back were made. the major downgrade from the predecessor is in the level design, the first game was linear but the combat arenas were more complex, that made possible for the very good AI to express it's full potential. in the sequel combat feel more predictable. despite this flaw, this time the game is more varied in enemy tipes environment and situations, making it feel less repetitive then the predecessor. the engine is very well optimized and still pleasant to look at. 4 stars for me. played on a lenovo ideapad 3 Ryzen 5 U AMD Vega 8 2gb V-Ram 12 gb Ram win 10. Tt runs smooth like butter on high settings.
