A solid Spin-off after so many years
First I would like to draw a convenient line for this review in stating that this is not a numbered entree in the series and it is indeed a spin-off and the review will be from that prospective. If the game was a numbered entree then the score would be a lot lower. The game really holds your hand. Like a lot. an objective telling you what to do every 5 minutes. (But thinking back on it, It could be tied to the themes if you're really generous). This didn't annoy me too much but if your comparing this to the original, where it just puts you in an environment and you figure out where to go from there you will be disappointed. Combat gets very tiresome/boring (after 4 play-throughs). The combat is a bit souls like where the goal is to counter attacks or dodge. Once you learn an enemies attack pattern it will be easy. There is also no enemy that you cannot beat which could be seen as a downside for horror games. I recommend the highest difficulty if you want to feel anything from the combat. Its not scary. Not at all. This game is very much a horror from the prospective of the main character and it makes sense in the story but it fails to scare the player. Sound and visuals: Both incredible. Asthetics are amazing and sound/music great. (I believe there is a vine boom in a cut scene that I didn't notice until NG+) I really enjoyed the story. The horror elements and the mindset of the protagonist makes sense and fits the setting very well. The story is clear in the first play-through but in NG+ and up you get new cut-scenes and new documents to find that and prospective and nuance to the story. Some would argue parts of the story is "Woke" but the game really does a good job adding nuance which is a god-send in modern games. This is probably the best thing Konomi has released in a decade and with the and the fact that its on GOG so soon after release is amazing.
