The Evil Within 2 offers some enjoyable scares, but it never transcends or deviates from the many works it draws from

8/10
The Evil Within 2 gives you more options to play your way in a much bigger survival-horror playground than the original. Although a disjointed plot and weak protagonist make it slow to get started, being pursued through an intriguingly bizarre world by plentiful and disturbing monsters kept my palms sweaty and my heart in my throat thanks to a strict adherence to the most important survival horror rule: you should always be on the back foot.

An intense and thrilling psychological survival horror sequel that improves on its forerunner in almost every way.

Bad Port

I enjoy The Evil Within 2 enough to buy and play it a third time(Steam/Ps4) here on GoG but this port is just awful. I get the same stuttery mess on both my machines: i7-6700K and GTX 1070 i7-8700K and RTX 2080 Super Port quality aside, This isnt a bad game. Graphics look a little washed out but the art direction is pretty solid at least for my tastes. Gameplay is very similar to the later Resident Evils (RE4 and up). Story is pretty silly but entertaining enough to keep you invested. TLDR An action packed 3rd person shooter with a silly but fun story. Highly recommend locking framerate at 30 which is crazy/unfortunate for a modern PC game.

Poor UI/UX makes game unplayable

Keyboard user here. I can't get equip or use items, and after half an hour of googling, it appears that it can only be done by modifying game files. Seems like it's probably a pretty good game, but how could I know? One of these days I may get a controller and try again, but if you do not have one DON'T buy this game.

Inferior to the original.

Normies hated the original's unique but traditional design. In response they made the sequel the most by the numbers, conventional thing, imaginable. I hate it. This game is just The Last Of Us with a Evil Within reskin. Shinji Mikami be like "oh you normies don't see my vision? Fine, I won't have anything to do with actually making the sequel. You can eat what these unimaginative Bethesda morons give you lol" Shinji plz come back, I need you . . .
