Brilliant in its own right
I bought this game after seeing a trailer and watching some of the Dev Diaries. That being said, I didn't know much about the game apart from that so I went in pretty blind. Let me start by saying that this game is probably not for everybody. If you're looking for a lot of action, hard fights or challenging puzzles, Hellblade is not what you're looking for. It's a story driven, cinematic experience where you have to solve puzzles and fight enemies to advance in the game, all the while finding out more about the world and yourself. The atmosphere in this game is great, the sound is out of this world and the graphics are beautiful to look at. On your path, you'll learn a lot about nordic mythology. The controls are very easy to learn and they work well. The puzzles are pretty easy most of the time, on some you have a timelimit, with others, you can take as much time as you want. They're not very hard or diverse, but they fit beautifully into the game and its world. The fighting is also very easy to pick up. You have a few different attack moves, strong, fast and kick, you can block, counter and dodge. You can abuse the dodge pretty hard which basically makes you invulnerable, and there's not much enemy variety. To me this wasn't a problem since the game's focus is not on fighting at all. It serves more as a "plot device", and in that regard its simplicity was a positive thing to me. All in all, I haven't enjoyed a game as much as Hellblade in a long time. Took me about 8 hours to play through, you can probably be faster, but I took my time going through because, like I said, it just has amazing atmosphere and I've never seen facial animations as great as in this game. It's emotional, heartbreaking, saddening, yet eerily beautiful. Headphones are a must and I recommend playing at night with lights out and nothing to distract you around. Well worth the 30€ I spent on it.
