Excellent Successor To Resident Evil 4
I'll be updating this review as I play through Evil Within 1, but I'm 22 hours in and only at Chapter 7. True, I'm an extremely deliberate player, almost a perfectionist, but I am finding incredible value in the game. I couldn't disagree with the critics more (like Yahtzee from Zero Punctuation). This game is a VERY worthy spiritual sequel to Resident Evil 4 and Shinji Mikami absolutely delivers the goods once again! One of the main points of criticism for Yahtzee was the impenetrable story. I certainly wouldn't call RE 4's story a masterwork of video game storytelling, and EW 1 is more of the same in my book. SETTINGS True, the game does change settings abruptly. One chapter you're in a disturbing Mental Hospital. Another chapter you're in a village that is eerily reminiscent of the one in the beginning of RE 4 complete with chainsaw wielding madman. Then you're in the ruins of a Medieval Castle complete with beautiful cliffside panorama framed at the last moments of sunset. Some people, like Yahtzee, would find this smacks of a schizophrenic inability to adhere to a cohesive narrative and setting. I think the plot device that allows for the wild change in settings is perfectly reasonable and makes sense within the context of the story. And absolutely allows for the dramatic changes in location. To me, these changes are shocking, interesting and very welcome, adding incredible variety. GAMEPLAY I want to draw attention to the inclusion of the "Trap Disarming" mechanic in the game. I am finding it very cleverly implemented. Some people might feel it ruins the pacing of the game, making it difficult to engage in a "run and gun" style firefight with the zombie like denizens you encounter. My playstyle is very cautious, very deliberate, very conservative, so sneaking around the levels, carefully disarming the traps, is exactly my style. I find the mechanic adds a great extra layer of gameplay, and you even get rewarded with loot for bothering to do so. Nice
